Description
Electrification of government and DoD vehicles has been prioritized by the current administration. Limits of range, charging times, and operational feasibility have limited the efforts to create such a vehicle. MATBOCK has made strategic partnerships and contains internal knowledge and expertise to create an electric HMMWV conversion kit for existing HMMWVs currently in the rolling stock of the DoD and Air Force. Based on our technology, these would increase the range of the vehicles to 500 miles with a 15 minute charge time on the batteries, zero degradation to the batteries at these charging times, and increase the overall specifications of the vehicle such as top speed, lifecycle, submersible to 33 ft, payload, and towing capacity. This capability would modernize the existing fleet of vehicles for a fraction of the price of new tactical vehicles.
