Mercedes-Maybach S 600 Pullman Guard able to protect from bullets and bombs

The Mercedes-Maybach S 600 Pullman Guard, the first shipment of this 6.5 meter long, 5.6-tonne limo begin in earnest in the second half of 2017, customers will get a car that challenges any Rolls-Royce or Bentley in terms of interior area and creature conveniences. The Pullman Guard provides rear face-to-face seating so that four passengers can perform a moving meeting while quaffing champagne from bespoke crystal glasses.

When the discussion is over, the two seats in the 3rd row recline, similar to on a company class flight, complete with adjustable calf rest so that travelers can test. But, since this vehicle conforms to defense class VR9 and Directive ERV 2010, even an attack from a rocket-propelled grenade should not raise you from your rest.

Everything from the floor to the windows is enhanced to withstand bullets, shrapnel and explosive gadgets. The armor plating on the doors is so dense that Mercedes needed to fit motors to the hinges so that somebody other than Superman can open and close them easily without bursting a muscle group. The reason it’s able to provide such high levels of security is due to the fact that the strengthening and other security elements are incorporated into the automobile’s fundamental structure, instead of included later.

Its V12 bi-turbo engine has also been tuned for power over speed. There’s 530hp on tap however a substantial 830Nm of torque readily available at even low revs, so it will constantly have the ability to pull away. And though Mercedes has digitally limited the top speed to minimize the severity of a potential accident, it will still strike 100mph (160km/h).

Costs for the S 600 Pullman Guard will start at EUR1.4 million ($1.57 million).
