Quantum, better known as the engineering half of the Fisker Karma, is going commando with the Clandestine Extended Range Vehicle (CREV) diesel electric hybrid. It's quiet. Deadly quiet.
Think of it as a smaller, more efficient Hummer capable of traveling long distances without waking up the economy thanks to the AWD Q-Force system. Specs are impressive: achieves a sustained 80 MPH, climbs 60-degree grades, and fuel consumption 25% above similar vehicles. There's even a special weapons ring designed to help the gunner throw down serious fire across rough terrain.

The CREV is undergoing testing at Michigan's TARDEC to see if the military is ready to go olive Green.
