Another important feature is the very good mobility, combining speed, agility, and crew comfort in rough terrain, enabled by the sophisticated but rugged hydropneumatic suspension adjusting each wheel individually.

The AMV has protection levels up to 30 mm APFSDS frontal arc. The vehicle has a very good level of mine protection and can withstand explosions of up to 10 kilograms (22 lb) TNT.

Designs exist for different APC vehicles ( armoured personnel carrier) and IFV versions ( infantry fighting vehicle), communications versions, ambulances and different fire support versions, armed with large caliber mortar and gun systems. The main feature of the AMV is its modular design, which allows the incorporation of different turrets, weapons, sensors, or communications systems on the same carriage. The Patria AMV (Armored Modular Vehicle) is an 8×8 multi-role military vehicle produced by the Finnish defence industry company Patria.
