Unlike the M12 FAV, the M12S lacks the more ubiquitous four-wheel steering in an effort to sacrifice low-speed maneuverability for better high-speed handling and performance-wheel steering. The M12S features an 8 liter (8,003 cc; 488.4 cu in) twin-turbocharged V8 engine with 720 hp (537 KW) and 855 ft·lb (1,160 N·m) of torque, as opposed to the 12.0 liter liquid-cooled, [[hydrogen]]-injected internal combustion engine that its FAV counterpart contains, making the M12S significantly faster. The V8 has a bore/stroke ratio of 108x109 mm (4.25x4.29 in), a redline set to 6,500 rpm, and a fuel cutoff threshold set to 6,900 rpm. This version also has seventy centimeters of total suspension travel and an advanced dampening system. As with the M12 FAV, the engine is housed in an openable compartment at the front of the vehicle. This Warthog is equipped with permanent all-wheel drive.<ref name="canon fodder"/>

The front differential is set to 100% on acceleration and 0% on deceleration, while the rear differential is set to 100% on both acceleration and deceleration. The M12S Warthog has an 86%/14% rear/front center differential balance.<ref name="fh3 game"/>

** In the M12S Warthog CST's Forzavista narration, Warren incorrectly claims that the vehicle has an 8 liter hydrogen-injected engine. Only the non-civilian Warthog models have hydrogen-injected engines, albeit with a 12 liter displacement, while the M12S has an 8 liter twin-turbocharged V8.
