The UK Ministry of Defence is expected to publish a tender notice for the Light Mobility Vehicle (LMV) programme in early August, marking the start of a competitive procurement process to replace the British Army's aging Land Rover and Pinzgauer utility fleets. The programme is budgeted at £750 million ($1 billion) and is a key part of the wider Land Mobility Programme aimed at rationalizing vehicle maintenance. Vehicle trials are planned between October 2026 and January 2027. Likely contenders for the off-the-shelf solution include AM General, Chevrolet, Toyota/Babcock, Rheinmetall, Ineos, Thales, and Supacat. The LMV programme is expected to run into the 2030s.
