6 Most Expensive Armored Cars Used By VIPs

VIPs have always needed protection when they were out in public. The threat to people like politicians, royal family members and celebrities often means that they will be accompanied by bodyguards and security officers to help keep them safe. However, modern weaponry and tactics have made it essential for such people to have even more protection, usually in the form of armored cars. These expensive vehicles are used exclusively by the top members of society, preventing all types of attack thanks to tough defensive measures that the manufacturers have built in to them.


6. Cadillac Escalade ESV
From the inside the Cadillac Escalade ESV appears to be a luxury car in the style of an expensive limousine. However, it is actually a $300,000 machine that can repel even the most ardent of attackers, as it is resistant to most types of gunfire.


5. Lexus LS 460 L
INKAS, the manufacturer behind the Lexus LS 460 L, created a vehicle that concentrates more on being to keep out of trouble rather than being able to withstand large amounts of damage. While it does feature a number of armored elements and can repel small arms fire, the $300,000 car is much lighter than other armored vehicles and can travel at high speeds.


4. Huron APC
While most armored cars try to do as much as possible to appear as if they are a normal vehicle to reassure the public, the Huron APC takes a slightly different approach. It flagrantly flaunts its defensive capabilities, showing any potential attackers what they will have to deal with in an attempt to deter any possible threats. Able to withstand explosions, heavy firearms, and grenades, it also has a machine gun mounted on the roof.


3. Conquest Knight XV
Inspired by the success of the Hummer, another company developed the Conquest Knight XV. It includes steel armor and a special composite of Kevlar and fiberglass for weak areas such as the bumper, while the wheels are reinforced with hardened aluminum wheels so that they can’t be damaged.


2. Kombat T98
Costing a staggering $1.5 million, the Kombat T98 is a Russian built armored vehicle that is a favorite of the rich and famous thanks to its awesome defensive capabilities and the extreme luxury it offers. Along with all of the usual elements, such as bulletproof armor, you would expect from such a car, it also includes gold plated trimming and gauges along with whale leather coated seats.


1. Cadillac One
Otherwise known as The Beast, Cadillac One is the person transport of the President of the United States. Costing almost $2 million to make and maintain, the armored car has some of the most elaborate safety features of any vehicle ever made. As well as armor that can resist high powered bullets and explosions it also includes a fire suppression system, an oxygen supply in case of chemical attack and pump action shotguns for the agents accompanying the president.
