BMW has unveiled an armored version of its SUV called the X5 Protection VR6, designed to protect against explosives, firearms and abduction efforts.

The model X5 VR6 complies with internationally recognized official test criteria. However, the entire car is lined with stainless steel, with overlays on each part and edges, to maximize coverage.

BMW X5 Protection VR6 is powered by the same 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine from the new X5 M50i and X7 M50i. The engine produces 530 horsepower, from 0 to 100 km/h reaches in 5.9 seconds and the top speed is electronically limited to 210 km/h.

Mechanical changes to the vehicle also include a special fuel tank, which can be automatically locked in the event of a leak and prevent gas leaks.

X5 VR6 will be produced alongside the standard X5 at BMW’s Spartanburg plant in the US, with prices set to be announced later this year. For comparison, Volvo recently introduced a similar armored version of its XC90 SUV. The weight of this vehicle is 4.5 tonnes and the price of the XC90 is around 495,000 euros.

2020 BMW X5 By AC Schnitzer

2020 BMW X5 gets more power by AC Schnitzer

To those who find the fourth-generation BMW X5 to be too soft, the AC Schnitzer company has empowered it further by modifying its operating system.

The suspension has been modified in the car and the platform has been lowered greatly to lower the center of gravity, which makes it more versatile in curves.

The addition of new 22-inch wheels has made this SUV look even sportier, with standard wheels still available. The aerodynamics have been enhanced to this X5, through a layer placed on the front, as well as an arm at the bottom of the ceiling.

The interior has not been overlooked by AC Schnitzer, which has put aluminum pedals, foot rests and aluminum straps on the front console, making the BMW X5 look so much better.
