The SEP W1 is a wheeled version of the SEP modular armoured vehicle, a hybrid diesel-electric powered armoured fighting vehicle developed by BAE Systems AB in Sweden. The SEP W1 has eight wheels, each with a hub-mounted electric drive unit that provides speed, position and torque control. The vehicle also has two diesel engine/generator sets that supply power to the electric drive units and other systems. The SEP W1 can achieve a maximum speed of over 120 km/h on road and has an operational range of 600 km. The vehicle has a crew of two and can carry eight passengers. The SEP W1 is designed to be adaptable to different missions and environments, with a modular payload configuration that allows for up to 24 variants. The SEP W1 was first demonstrated in 2003 and was considered for the British FRES programme, but was cancelled by the Swedish Armed Forces in 2008 due to a lack of an international collaborative partner.
