The GTV also features the long-term armour solution (LTAS), which allows for rapid conversion from a performance truck to a highly protected tactical armoured vehicle without compromising load capability, mission certainty or weight-related safety.

The vehicle also meets stringent Euro V emission control regulations on engine design, which demand lower levels of carbon particulates, nitrous oxides, carbon monoxide and unburnt hydrocarbons.
