The vehicle can be used for a range of roles including troop carrier, command and liaison, reconnaissance, aircraft hauling and special purpose shelter. With a smaller loading capacity and improved 100kW petrol (gasoline) engine, the EQ2061E features a much improved travelling performance compared to the basic variant EQ2081E.
