The L-ATV is based around Oshkosh's TAK-4i (i = intelligent) independent suspension system. Vehicles fitted with an earlier version of the system, include the Oshkosh Medium Tactical Vehicle Replacement (MTVR), Oshkosh Logistic Vehicle System Replacement, and Oshkosh MRAP All-Terrain Vehicle (M-ATV); the TAK-4 system has also been retro-fitted to the Force Protection Inc Cougar and BAE Systems RG-33 MRAPs. The majority of systems supplied pre-JLTV have been coil-sprung. The TAK-4i version fitted to the L-ATV remains undisclosed, but is not coil-sprung and is of the variable adjustable ride-height type with up to 20 inches (51 cm) of wheel travel, 25 percent more than the current standard.

Motive power is provided by a digitally-controlled Gale Banks Engineering 866T V8 turbodiesel, based on the architecture of the General Motors Duramax L5P. Power output is 400 hp (298 kW; 406 PS) and 850 lbâ‹…ft (1,152 Nâ‹…m) of torque. In commercial use, power output of the standard Duramax L5P engine is currently up to 445 hp (332 kW; 451 PS) and 910 lbâ‹…ft (1,234 Nâ‹…m). An Allison 2500SP six-speed fully automatic transmission is fitted to all JLTV. The L-ATV can be fitted with the Oshkosh ProPulse diesel-electric powertrain, previously fitted to the Oshkosh Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) and MTVR. According to Oshkosh literature, the ProPulse diesel-electric powertrain dramatically improves fuel economy by up to 35 percent in certain circumstances and serves as an on-board generator with enough output to power an entire airfield or hospital, generating up to 120 kW of AC power for external operations; the hybrid powertrain was not a requirement of the JLTV program. A hybrid electric JLTV was unveiled in January 2022, this fitted with a lithium-ion battery pack.
