FAT TRUCK® Releases Full Lineup of Amphibious Vehicles

While some might lament this season’s deep snow, it proved fertile ground for Canadian Armed Forces members to train in this week. Taking advantage of both the deep snow and slushy conditions, four members of the Canadian Armed Forces from southern Ontario visited the Coniston Industrial Park to engage in Fat Truck off-road utility vehicle training. The eight-wheel, 16-passenger vehicle is 6,350 kg, carries a 1,816 kg payload, a top speed of 40 km/h on land and is designed for all manner of weather and ground conditions, with the amphibious vehicle able to traverse deep snow and marshy swamps. Its on-water top speed is five km/h. The Defense FAT TRUCK® Arctic Mobility Amphibious Vehicle (AMAV) offers even greater payload and top speed options.

The Columbia Icefield in the Canadian Rockies is one of the most breathtaking natural wonders in North America, and now, thanks to the FAT TRUCK®, it's more accessible than ever. The FAT TRUCK® amphibious glacier tour vehicle is at the heart of the Ice Odyssey, a premium experience offered by Pursuit's Banff Jasper Collection that takes guests deep into terrain no ordinary vehicle could ever reach. Guests climb aboard the FAT TRUCK, a remarkable all-terrain vehicle designed to conquer rugged terrain effortlessly — for a personalized adventure shared with a small group of fellow explorers. As they traverse the stunning Athabasca Glacier, guides share the story of the icefield, from its ancient glacial formation to its recent role as a NASA testing ground. Banff Jasper Collection With a maximum of 10 guests per vehicle, the smaller group size means less impact on the glacier and a more intimate experience compared to larger tour vehicles. It's the kind of up-close encounter with nature that leaves a lasting impression. Banff Jasper Collection We are thrilled to see the FAT TRUCK delivering unforgettable experiences in one of Canada's most iconic landscapes.

Zeal Motor, the leading OEM manufacturer of the FAT TRUCK® off-road industrial vehicles, proudly stands with the citizens of the States affected by the recent hurricanes. We extend our deepest sympathies to the communities impacted by these disasters, and we are honored by the dedication and innovation shown by our team and partners in support of relief efforts.

The trucks have big wheels that can make it through high water. The vehicles also float. Supertrak, right next to the Punta Gorda Airport, volunteered their time and FAT Trucks to first responders during Hurricane Helene. "It was a shock, obviously, to know that we were going to help our local residents out," Michael Stanek of Supertrak said. "It was a great honor to go out and actually rescue and see people in distress."

When floodwaters hit the communities of Swan River and Minitonas, Manitoba, the FAT TRUCK® was there when it mattered most. The Manitoba RCMP Search and Rescue team deployed the FAT TRUCK® as part of their flood relief operations, working alongside partners to assist those impacted and help keep everyone safe. The images speak for themselves — navigating washed-out terrain and flooded areas that would stop any conventional vehicle in its tracks, the FAT TRUCK® proved once again why it is the go-to amphibious utility vehicle for flood rescue and emergency response. We are thrilled to see the FAT TRUCK® serving on the front lines and helping protect communities across Canada.

Fat Truck was featured in CBC News coverage of MSPO 2026, the International Defence Industry Exhibition in Kielce, Poland, where Canada served as lead nation for the first time in the show's 34-year history. Canada's delegation included more than 230 companies and associations and nearly 500 delegates, part of a national effort to grow the country's defence exports to Europe. These exports currently amount to around 11% of Canadian defence exports, compared to roughly 63% going to the U.S., following Canada's entry into the EU's SAFE defence financing program and the launch of its first Defence Industrial Strategy earlier in 2026.
