The « cheaper » solution proposed by the Greek company EODH to upgrade the current fleet of Leonidas includes the replacement of the existing 320hp engine with the American-made 6-cylinder Caterpillar C7 engine that delivers 360 hp. The new engine works with a 6-speed automatic transmission and modified hydraulic systems.

The upgrade package also includes strengthening the vehicle's suspension with new torsion bars and digitizing the driver's seat. Optionally and if the user wishes, the vehicle can be installed air conditioning system, RBXP protection, auxiliary power supply unit, reversing and front-facing cameras, new technology communication system, high-performance intercom system as well as Management and Control System.

To improve the protection of the vehicle, EODH has prepared an additional shield package which can be installed externally without much difficulty due to the slopes of the vehicle. This includes the installation of composite multilayer shielding (composite) and the addition of internal anti-fracture lining (Spall Liner), while if the user wishes it can be installed in the vehicle and anti-mine protection as well as new seats suspended from the roof for better protection of the transported person. from mine explosions.

Thanks to the proposed package, Leonidas protection in the front arch becomes Level 5 and perimeter Level 4, which allows the vehicle to withstand direct hits from a distance of 1 km from ammunition 25 x 137 APDS-T using the M242 Bushmaster cannon of the Turkish Toma ACV-15.

Regarding the firepower of the upgraded Leonidas, EODH proposes the remote-controlled stabilized turret jointly designed with a foreign company, which can be manufactured in Greece.
