M20 is based on FAP 2228 6x6 chassis and uses "CUMMINS ISLe 8.9" engine (power 340 HP), an "ALLISON 3000S" gearbox and a "ZF STEYR 1600/396" drive distributor. It can develop a speed of 95 km/h and overcome climbs of up to 60%. With a full tank (of 200 liters) it can travel up to 600 km.[1][2] First batch of 10 vehicles was delivered to Serbian Army in 2023 and were presented during Granit 2023 military exercise.
