尽管电动汽车在民用领域日益普及，但各国军队在大规模采用方面仍然保持克制。1不过，电动和混合动力车辆已在特定军事应用中显现价值，特别是在侦察和特种作战领域。1这些车型因其低噪音和低红外辐射特性，能够为隐蔽行动提供战术优势。1
法国在这方面率先进行了实践。1该国于2017年推出的Arquus Scarabee（甲壳虫）轻型混动装甲侦察车搭载了柴电混合动力系统。1这款车型在"纯电静音模式"下能够实现几近无声行驶，同时红外热成像特征大幅下降。1当需要高速机动时，车辆可切换至"野兽模式"，柴油机与电动机同时输出400匹马力。1
Electric and hybrid vehicles have begun making inroads into military operations, though adoption remains limited to specialized units rather than widespread fleet conversion. Reconnaissance troops and special forces have integrated these technologies into their arsenals, leveraging the distinct tactical advantages they provide. 1
The appeal of electric and hybrid powertrains for military applications centers on their stealth capabilities. Vehicles powered by these systems generate minimal noise and produce significantly reduced infrared signatures, making them ideal for covert operations where detection risks operational failure. 1 France demonstrated this potential in 2017 with the introduction of the Arquus Scarabee, a lightweight hybrid reconnaissance vehicle equipped with a diesel-electric hybrid drivetrain. 1 The vehicle can operate in a "silent electric mode" that produces almost no audible sound while simultaneously achieving a dramatic reduction in thermal signature detectable by infrared imaging systems. 1 When tactical situations demand increased power, the Scarabee switches to "beast mode," simultaneously engaging both the diesel engine and electric motor to generate 400 horsepower. 1
Despite these tactical advantages in reconnaissance and special operations contexts, the broader military establishment has not embraced large-scale electrification of vehicle fleets, suggesting that the technology's benefits for conventional combat roles remain insufficient to justify comprehensive operational transition.
