The LSV is an all-wheel drive (4X4), multi-purpose, all-terrain vehicle. With a power-to-weight ratio in excess of 25kW/tonne, it is a versatile performer even in the worst of terrains.

The fixed windscreen on the driver's side enhances driver comfort without being exposed to the vagaries of nature while the drop-down windscreen on the left side, enables the commander to fire the LMG in a wide arc from his command post. A conveniently located trap door facilitates easy operation of the rocket launcher. This air/helicopter transportable vehicle also has a collapsible tent on the right side. Excellent communication is ensured by a powerful radio set with its own power source. The LSV can carry a crew of 4 besides the driver and the commander and can be made self-contained with sufficient rations, water, utensils, stove, bedding, etc.

The design of the vehicle lends itself for easy adaptation to a number of applications such as Observation Post, Reconnaissance and Surveillance vehicle, Ambulance, Field artillery tractor and a host of other applications. Both armoured and unarmoured bodies options are available.
