The Shahram is based on the Soviet-made BTR-60PB 8x8 armoured vehicle personnel carrier, but with some modifications as the single door on the left side of the hull.
There is no turret, and the roof of the hull is fitted with a wide range of detection and optics as a camera mounted on a mast. On each side at the front of the hull, there is a bank of four smoke grenade dischargers.
For its self-protection the Shahram is equipped with a remote weapon station located at the front top of the crew compartment armed with a 7.62mm machine gun.
The hull of the BTR-60P is of all-welded steel armour with the driver and commander seated at the front of the hull, the open-topped personnel compartment behind them and the engine compartment at the very rear of the hull.
The driver sits on the left with the vehicle commander to his right. Both have a windscreen in front of them which, when in action, is covered by a flap hinged at the top.The BTR-60PB is motorized with two GAZ-49B 6-cylinder in-line water-cooled petrol engine developing 90 hp. at 3,400 rpm coupled to a manual transmission with 4 forward and 1 reverse gears. The BTR-60PB can run at a maximum road speed of 80 km/h with a maximum road range of 500 km.
