Airport Rescue & Firefighting
Efficient. Responsive. Unprecedented. The Oshkosh® Striker® Volterra™ performance hybrid is meticulously designed to optimize both mechanical power and battery power, resulting in superior driving and pumping performance while simultaneously reducing fuel consumption and emissions.
Experience the best of both worlds with the Striker ARFF vehicle's legacy features and the cutting-edge technology of the Striker Volterra. Operating this vehicle remains consistent with current Striker ARFF models, meaning no additional training is required, making fleet integration a breeze.
An Oshkosh patented hybrid-electric drivetrain featuring an electro-mechanical infinitely variable transmission (EMIVT) allows zero-emissions operation and stand-by mode when powered by the onboard batteries.
Reduce emissions, engine noise and firefighters’ exposure to air toxins and sound pollution generated from a standard diesel drivetrain, lessening the impact on their health.
Up to a 40% reduction in fuel consumption and a reduced need for engine maintenance, creating cost savings.
The onboard batteries can be coupled to the internal combustion engine to provide continuous and uninterrupted power to the pumping system or drive systems.
Setting a new standard for rapid response time performance, the Striker Volterra ARFF’s hybrid mode activates automatically when needed for acceleration and to maintain batteries for maximum readiness. Reaching 0-50 mph (0-80 kph) in 25 seconds, the Striker Volterra ARFF accelerates 28% faster than traditional diesel-powered ARFF vehicles which typically reach 50 mph (80 kph) in 32 seconds.
No matter the state of the battery, the performance and operation of the vehicle is never altered.
Increases efficiency and reduces brake wear by converting the vehicle’s kinetic energy to electricity, which recharges the batteries, and reduces brake temperature and wear.
