An important element is its autonomy that exceeds 700 kilometres with the capacity of the tank being 300 litres. In terms of performance… 0-80km / h is achieved in 20.4 seconds while the top speed reaches 120km / h.
The transmission is a six-speed automatic. It is equipped with a 6.7-litre, 300 hp engine, and torque that reaches 1,100 Nm. In short, a personnel carrier can be changed to a fire assault truck or vice versa! In addition, it has the ability to be repaired on the battlefield (the capsule is raised hydraulically), a very important element for such vehicles. This happens as the “capsule” comes out and is replaced by another. It is a multi-role vehicle that can change character in minutes. It should be noted that EODH already cooperates with very large companies abroad while it is the one that shields military vehicles such as the Leopard, Boxer etc. The goal as they said was to produce it completely in Greece by Greek hands. The owner of the company Giannis Mitsis and the project manager, Thanasis Grammatiko both explained that the development and implementation of the Hoplite have been done with company funds. Based just outside Thessaloniki, for the last 3-4 years it has invested in a new 10-ton vehicle which we had the opportunity to see up close and examine its design and capabilities. EODH is one of them and recently presented its own prototype called Hoplite. In addition, the German e.Go revealed that iplans to build a factory for the production of electric cars.īesides the production of consumer vehicles, there are companies specialising in military vehicles and equipment. Despite the endless red tape, and many absurd obstacles entrepreneurs face such as counter-incentives to get involved in such a sector, some are trying their best to bring forward Greek ingenuity and efficiency in this highly competitive sector.Īt present, Replicar Hellas, based in Katerini, manufactures vehicles, while we expect on November 1 Spyros Panopoulos will unveil the supercar CHAOS. However, that appears to be slowly changing. Greece is not exactly famous for its heavy industry, and more specifically for its car manufacturing. Newsauto visited the company’s facilities in Thessaloniki to check out its capabilities. A new “Made in Greece” military vehicle is ready for biochemical warfare.
