Mercedes S600 Can Now Protect You From Blasts and Bullets

Mercedes has divulged another bullet and impact proof form of its S600 Pullman model that's asserted to be a boon for state leaders and people at specific danger. 

Taking into account the present 6.5-meter long form of the limo, the next model in the line - S600 Pullman Guard, is understood to be scarcely recognizable from the consistent S-Class that is running around.

As a general rule, the changes in the new Pullman have been broad, with shielded boards included, as well as massive changes made to the customary model of S600 Mercedes-Maybach. 

The greatest difference is the incorporation of another strengthened steel bulkhead traveler cell that shields inhabitants from bullets and explosions. 

The model weighs extraordinarily at 5100kg, the defensively covered S600's entryways are currently heavy to the point that the maker had to include power help. The windows are presently hydraulically worked.
The additional thick impact proof feature of windows comes with a different overlay coating that is then covered with polycarbonate. 

Inside, wealthy dignitaries or state leaders are dealt with to what Mercedes-Maybach cases is the biggest space for leg in the portion, with liberal space for up to four travelers. 

Under the cap, the defensively covered S600 comes furnished with a 6.0-liter V12 - twin turbo - boasting a 390kW/830Nm. Benz hasn't discharged how fast the car is to 100km/h but has conceded its five-ton weight has constrained it to restrain the Pullman Guard's top pace to only 160km/h. 

Additional items for the Pullman Guard incorporate sirens, flashing lights, radios, a crisis battery and an outer amplifier PA framework. 

The heavily guarded S600 Pullman Guard is accessible in Europe on request now with conveyances starting in the later half of next year. The estimate starts at the price of $2 million - nearly thrice the expense of the non-heavily clad, standard S600 Pullman.
