If you thought that the Armored Maybach 62 was the ultimate vehicle providing highest protection, think again. Although it’s just in the concept stages, for now, the Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon Light Armored Patrol Vehicle 6.X CONCEPT will soon become a standard for armored patrol vehicles. A revamp of the LAPV 5.4; this new model will be lighter to increase agility while achieving 150km/h speeds to transport cargo of 1.3 tons. The vehicles feature a monocoque full steel body with ballistic protection and a 2850mm wheelbase. You can replace damaged plates with ease, and it includes my deflector plate on the vehicle’s floor. The concept has a 450mm ground clearance and a hydraulic braking system, and four ventilated disc brakes, to take this baby wherever you go!
Teaming up with EADS, Mercedes Benz brings a host of innovative high performance systems to the LAPV 6.X.
