Mercedes-Benz India today launched its most expensive car for the Indian market - the Maybach S600 Guard, priced at 10.50 crore (ex-showroom Delhi). It is the third car from the Stuttgart-based carmaker to come barring the Maybach badging and is also the second armoured S-Class to join the Mercedes-Benz India line-up. The new Mercedes-Maybach S600 Guard is also one of the 12 new products Mercedes-Benz India has planned to launch this year.

 

Coming to key specialty of the car, the Mercedes-Maybach S600 Guard is the only armoured car in the country that comes with VR10 protection. This means the car can not only withstand bullets, but also protect its incumbents from blasts, rocket-propelled grenades, explosives, fires and even heavy sniper firing. As for the inside of the car, it gets re-positioned rear seats that allow passengers to sit further back in the sedan. In fact the windows come with polycarbonate coating and the car's under body armouring protects the vehicle from explosive devices that could possibly go off beneath it.

 

Moreover, the cabin has been specially designed for protection against gas attacks by injecting fresh air in the event of an attack. Additional equipment found in the S600 Guard includes opaque roller blinds all-round in the rear, heated windscreen and side windows, easily operated panic alarm system, fire extinguisher system with automatic activation, and hydraulic power for heavy side windows.

 

With all these extra weight of protection the car weighs almost 4.7 tonnes with all the luxury & safety features packed together. This means the Mercedes-Maybach needs enough power to keep this massive beast on toes, and for that Mercedes has equipped it with a 6.0-litre twin-turbo V12 engine that is capable of producing a monstrous 523bhp of power and 830Nm of torque. The car can do a 0-100km/h sprint in 7.9sec and on to an electronically limited top speed of 190km/h.
