I'm Tim Dimitriou from GM Performance Vehicles. I want to talk a little bit about the beast concept we have here
0:09
So what you see here is our concept beast. It's got an LT4 650 horsepower, 650 foot pounds of torque, 10 speed, 10L90 transmission
0:21
all hooked to an off-road chassis that's got almost 16 inches of travel in the rear and
0:24
almost 13 inches in the front, 37 inch tires, Fox Podium 3.0 shocks, literally the off-road beast
0:39
So with General Motors we've done the IS Infantry Squad Vehicle for GM Defense
0:46
It was based out of Colorado. It's basically a true pawler but it has a lot of cool features where it looks like this
0:53
overgrown side by side. So our design studio thought it was a pretty cool concept
0:57
You know, what if we were to do a civilian version? What if we were to do a, you know, full blown off-road, side by side-esque fun toy
1:06
So what are you using for suspension and wheels and tires? So all custom suspension
1:14
This is a, like I said, a concept build. We designed a suspension that's relatively producible
1:20
It's a four link with a panoramic bar in the rear, extended control arms up front
1:25
We use a production full size truck knuckle on the end but we maintain a relatively productive geometry
1:32
For the wheels, our race line 20 inch wheels, bead lock capable in the bead lock position
1:42
Concept Studio likes big wheels. It's an off-roader. I always say put 17 inch wheels on it and call it a day
1:48
Let's take a walk. I'm just going to take a walk around here. Seems like a popular device
1:59
Great to see the feedback. How many do you sell? Well, that's the question
2:03
How many would, how many do you want? How much do you want to pay
2:07
Well that's going to be up to the customer, isn't it? Yep
2:11
Let's take a look inside. So the interior is kind of interesting
2:23
Full one-off custom. We have AIM displays. One in front of the driver, one as a center stack
2:29
Recaro seats. They're cross sport ORV seats that we've embroidered with some custom stitching
2:39
Four point harnesses front and rear for when you get a little crazy
2:44
They've got the logo on them. Yep. And it's room for four
2:51
Four, yes. Everybody has three point or more six point harnesses
3:01
They should be all be four point harnesses. And coming to a showroom and seeing you in 2026, right
3:13
Make your voices heard. We'll never say never. So in the real world, if this were to be produced, how would you make it street legal
3:24
What would that be? So actually it's not too far off as it sits here
3:28
We need a true windshield. We need some thunder flares that actually cover the tires for full tire coverage on a state-by-state basis
3:36
You can have removable doors. It's actually, you know, full windshield wipers, defroster
3:43
Other than that, it's pretty close to being street legal. Thank you
