It is designed by Krauss-Maffei Wegmann and based on an enhanced Unimog U5000 chassis. This upgrade offers better protection and increased payload compared to its predecessor. The Dingo 2 is available in short and long wheelbase versions, accommodating 4 or 7 occupants depending on the wheelbase.

Powered by a 215hp diesel engine, the Dingo 2 features a central tire inflation system and a V-shaped hull with an armoured crew compartment. Its armour provides protection against landmines, small arms fire, and artillery shell fragments, with the option to add extra armour panels. Equipped with a NBC protection system, the vehicle uses a remotely controlled weapon station, mounting machine guns of varying calibres or a 40 mm automatic grenade launcher. This weapon station is also utilized in the Fennek armoured reconnaissance vehicle.
