AutoExec Summary
Russian engineering firm ArmorGroup has developed an armoured upgrade for the GWM Tank 500 SUV, designed to protect occupants during unpleasant commutes. The upgrade includes armouring the body, engine, and windows to withstand gunfire and small explosive devices without altering the SUV’s appearance. The protection upgrades meet BR4 GOST standards, including bulletproof glass, underbody protection, and engine-bay fire extinguisher. The cost starts at ₽RU16M ($AU268,700), significantly higher than the regular Tank 500 Ultra price in Australia. The vehicle retains standard features and safety functions, with upgraded brakes and suspension to handle the added weight. Australian buyers should be aware of regulations regarding up-armoured vehicles.
