The Otmo Buro is an all-terrain Mini SUV and microtruck produced by Ottonian automaker Otmo. It is one of the oldest models in Otmo's product line. The vehicle traces its lineage to the 1930 OMA Model B, which was refined in 1934 and 1942, with a final rework finishing in 1950 that created the first version of the vehicle to be available to private consumers, dubbed the Buro.

The Buro is noted for its boxy appearance and its mechanical simplicity and ruggedness. The Buro was the first mass-produced consumer four-wheel drive vehicle. Since 1950, the vehicle has been popular with tradesmen and farmers, especially in areas where the roads are prone to adverse conditions or maybe poorly-maintained. Specially-built variants of the Buro are used by the Ottonian Federal Postal Service.

The line is also noteworthy for the relatively few changes made to its design over the years; the drive systems are overall almost unchanged, although refinements have been made to the systems along with ever-improving engines. Its reliability, ease of repair, and mechanical simplicity have made it popular among workers and off-roaders alike.

With the exception of a special "sport" trim, the Buro conforms to Ottonian LEV regulations, and as such qualifies for special tax and regulatory incentives. A variant is also produced that conforms to Daitoan kei vehicle regulations.
