I received a response back from the sales department.
Hello Mr. Quinn,
Our industrial-grade hydrostatic-drive 8x8 Proteus/Minerva models are the models currently in limited production at our Indonesian and U.K. production facilities for delivery to commercial customers in those locations.
For the time being, these commercial customers are purchasing the maximum number of vehicles we can produce given the current strained global supply situation.
We are concurrently finalizing development on our Proteus equipped with a U.S. EPA-compliant diesel engine, which we expect to take at least two more months before we can begin production of this model.
What is your intended use for one (or more?) of our vehicles? We would appreciate knowing the model you're interested in and what your application is.
Thank you for inquiring!
