Rezvani Vengeance: The Armored Car You Don't Need But Wish You Had

Unless you live in some region of the planet at war, are a much hated politician, or are very successful in business in a country where life is cheap, I don't think you would consider buying a armored car. If any of the above assumptions coincide with you, congratulations, rezvani build vehicles for people like you. Their latest model is called Vengeance and joins a range of SUVs with a very high level (the highest) of passive safety. In reality, these are modified products on other cars that do not leave the factory like this. That is, this company prepares them for guarantee the physical integrity of its occupants in almost any circumstance.

El Military-inspired Rezvani Vengeance at the same time as apocalyptic, it is something like a brute and menacing looking SUV built on the basis of a Cadillac Escalade. It measures 5,5 meters long by 2,2 wide (and practically the same as high). Such a large body allows it to house seven or eight seats without giving up luxury and the usual concessions to the comfort of the American SUV on which it is based. To move its 3 or 4 tons of weight (depending on the elements with which it is equipped), its engine can be a L6 diesel with 281 hp of power or a V8 6.2 petrol with 426, 590 or 810 hp. The transmission is always automatic by torque converter, while the traction can be rear or integral.

Although it does not have everything as standard (most defensive options carry an extra cost), opt for equipment as unusual as glass and bulletproof panels, reinforced explosion-proof underbody, a large battery that can be recharged by the energy generated by a set of solar panels, night vision cameras, winch, protection against external electromagnetic pulses, electrified door handles (non-fatal), run flat tires, blinding lights, a system of smokescreen and even a complete survival kit which includes gas masks and body armor.

Having to have adapted the chassis and propellers, of General Motors origin, to such a project, suspension and other components are specific. Added to all of the above, it is clear that the Vengeance is not exactly cheap. Rezvani asks for each unit a minimum of U.S. dollar 285.000 (about 262.000 euros at currency exchange, although it is not available on our continent). As more power or weapons are requested, the acquisition cost rises to more than half a million dollars (460.000 euros).
