The engine provides power for all of the Land Raider's systems and can propel it up to an on-road speed of 55km/h.{{Fn|4a}} It can be adapted to run on almost fuel type, including a variety of gases , fossil fuels, liquids and even vegetative matter.{{Fn|15b}} The engine outputs 3000 bhp and allows an operational range of 387 miles in reactor only mode, while in dual fuel reactor operation mode this range is extended to 1200 miles.{{Fn|15a}}
