Armormax : Safe Luxury Vehicles
Armormax, the acclaimed armoring specialist approved by Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), has recently unveiled their latest achievements, and they’re nothing short of impressive. The spotlight shines on the iconic Range Rover and its sportier sibling, the Range Rover Sport, both meticulously fortified by Armormax to ensure the safety of their occupants without compromising on opulence or performance.
Fortified Excellence
At the forefront of Armormax’s latest endeavors is the fully armored Range Rover, engineered to meet the formidable B6 standard. Employing a strategic blend of lightweight composites, the finest ballistic steel available, and a thickness of 42mm ballistic glass, this luxurious SUV stands as a beacon of safety in the face of adversity. Designed to repel attacks ranging from AK-47 assaults to R5 and R1 threats, the vehicle provides unparalleled protection, offering occupants a cocoon of security.
Yet, the armoring doesn’t stop there. The Range Rover boasts an array of additional safeguards, including blast protection beneath the vehicle, a self-sealing fuel tank, a push-to-talk intercom system, and run-flat tire protection. The integration of these measures seamlessly maintains the vehicle’s intrinsic luxury and functionality, ensuring that even the sunroof and deployable side steps continue to function flawlessly.
Surprisingly, the enhancement in protection comes with a mere 700kg increase in weight, a testament to Armormax’s engineering prowess. This addition allows the Range Rover to preserve its remarkable driving experience, with no need for substantial suspension or braking upgrades. The investment for this paramount package is set at R1,868,000, with the long-wheelbase version priced at R1,928,000. Such is the allure of this enhanced vehicle that a dedicated Armormax patron, having commissioned one, quickly ordered two more.
Safeguarding Sportiness
In keeping with Armormax’s commitment to comprehensive security, the Range Rover Sport undergoes a transformation of its own, adhering to the esteemed B4 standard. Although the exterior appears unaltered, all standard glass is swapped for custom-fitted 21mm ballistic glass, enveloping passengers in a secure haven. The vehicle’s exterior elements – doors, panels, pillars, and roof – receive a cloak of lightweight ballistic composite, an impenetrable defense against potential attackers. Remarkably, Armormax maintains the Range Rover Sport’s signature elegance and performance while ensuring maximum safety.
The B4 armor package introduces a marginal weight gain of nearly 200kg, a minor concession given the nominal impact on dynamic capabilities. Extensive testing demonstrates that the differences between the B4-protected Range Rover Sport and an unarmored counterpart are limited to less than 10%. This package is priced at R908,000, backed by JLR South Africa’s endorsement, thereby preserving the vehicle’s warranty and maintenance agreements. With an assurance of three years on both the armor and craftsmanship, Armormax demonstrates its commitment to enduring quality.
A Dealer’s Dedication
The Range Rover Sport, fortified under the B4 standard, finds a purpose-built home with MMI Armoured Cars, a dealer dedicated exclusively to Armormax-protected vehicles.
