The GM Otter Light Reconnaissance Car was a significant vehicle in the military history of Canada during World War II.
The GM Otter Light Reconnaissance Car was developed by General Motors Canada to meet the demand for light armored reconnaissance vehicles. The Otter was based on the Chevrolet C15 Canadian Military Pattern truck chassis and used many standard GM components. It served with Canadian units in the Italian Campaign and Northwest European operations, as well as with the South African Army and the British RAF Regiment. After the war, the Otter was used by the Jordanian Army and the Dutch Army during the Indonesian Revolution. The vehicle's reliability and performance made it a popular choice among Canadian forces, despite its limitations in power and agility compared to the Humber Mk III.
