GM Defense has unveiled a one-off version of its Infantry Squad Vehicle (ISV) powered solely by electricity and simply dubbed the All Electric Concept Vehicle. Giving the All Electric Concept Vehicle its go is GM’s eCrate electric powertrain that features an electric motor with 200 hp and 361 Nm of torque that gets its juice from a 60 kWh, 400-volt battery. According to GM Authority, the electric motor is mounted up front and drives the rear wheels but it can be switched to four-wheel drive mode on the fly.
Just like the standard ISV, the All
Electric Concept Vehicle is based on the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 pickup truck,
so the front seating area and wheelbase are identical. However, the All
Electric Concept Vehicle features a bed at the rear that results in it being
five inches longer than the ISV and limits its seating capacity from nine to
five persons. The aforementioned 60 kWh battery is mounted under the bed and
provides a range between 112-241 km on a single charge.
General Motors hasn’t said if it will
bring an electric version of the ISV into production.
