Iveco introduced at Eurosatory 2016 an improved, higher
performace new variant of its Light Multirole Vehicle (LMV) family of light tactical vehicles. Sofar Iveco delivered over 4,000LMVs to 13 customers worldwide. The largest
fleets are operating in Italy, Belgium, UK, Russia
and Spain. The new vehicle designated LMV 2 is a major improvement over the
original LMV, that has been modified and adapted through the years, adding more
protection, capacity and electronics to meet user demand. LMV 2 increases the baseline platform
to better meet new demands, for higher performance, greater
reliability and increased crew comfort. The result is a growth of about 40
percent in payload capacity from 800 up to 1500 kg, depending on vehicle
configuration and armor suite.
