275 miles (443 km)
over 70 mph (110 km/h) cruising speed
The GMV has a cruising range of 275 miles (443 km) at over 70 mph (110 km/h) for operations behind enemy lines with only occasional resupply. GMVs feature an open rear, where an enclosed cabin would normally be. This flat bed area is used to store all the fuel, ammunition, rations, repair tools, electronic gadgets and other supplies that the mission requires.
The GMV program made changes in the Humvee's chassis and tires to make them more compatible for off-road work. The tires used were more rugged and have a central tire inflation system . Heavy suspension was also included as an upgrade, giving a ground clearance of 16.8 inch / 42.672 cm. There was an increased payload capacity to 2½ tons (unarmored M998 / M1025 GMVs)
A V8 6.5L turbocharged diesel engine that ran at 190 horse power (142 kW) at 3,400 rpm was installed. Extra fuel tanks were available to improve on the GMV's range. Sometimes multiple M243 smoke grenade launchers are installed.
An open bed was used for improved storage space and access with a winch for towing other vehicles (up to 4,200 pounds/1,905.088 kg). Armor plating and ballistic glass were also available to better protect the vehicle and its occupants.
