The Venpir has a ballistic STANAG 4569 Level 1, (7.62×51mm or 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition at 30 meters with velocity 833 m/s) and blast protection against hand grenades, unexploded artillery fragmenting submunitions, and other small anti personnel explosive devices detonated under the vehicle. The Soframe Venpir can be fitted with a full range of accessories including latest hardware and communication equipment. The vehicle is fitted with a ring mount mounted at the center of the crew compartment which can be armed with a 7.62mm or a 12.7mm machine gun. The Venpir 4x4 can negotiate a gradient of 60% and side slopes of 30%.
