The Rosenbauer Panther firefighting vehicle is the latest generation, manufactured in 2025 and has the following technological advantages:
- Equipped with modern fire and rescue equipment, including a combined electrically powered cutting and drilling tool - reducing response times significantly over standard rescue tools that use hoses and hydraulic oil for propulsion. The reduced overall mass makes it more ergonomic and easy to use.
- Pump-and-Roll functionality - allows fire extinguishing agents to be supplied on the move at speeds in excess of 80 km/h.
- Powerful engine - 750 hp, meeting stringent Euro 6 environmental standards, with acceleration from 0 to 80 km/h in under 30 seconds.
- Light mast - equipped with eight 56-watt LED projectors, with the ability to concentrate or disperse the light beam depending on the needs of the specific situation.
- Durable construction - with a sturdy chassis and large tyres, the vehicle performs equally well on tarmac and rough terrain.
- Enhanced crew protection - integrated water mist system for protection from aviation fuels with temperatures above 1000°C.
