The armored Land Rover Defender by INKAS takes the rugged, versatile Defender and turns it into a discreet rolling fortress, armored to CEN 1063 BR6 level so it can shield occupants from high-powered rifle fire and even multiple grenade blasts detonated directly underneath. Built by renowned armored-vehicle maker INKAS, it pairs serious protection with the comfort and capability of one of the world's most capable luxury SUVs.
What protection does the INKAS armored Defender offer?
INKAS, a renowned manufacturer of armored vehicles, unveiled its impressive take on the Land Rover Defender as an armored luxury SUV that combines ruggedness and versatility with top-notch security. Engineered to meet the demanding CEN 1063 BR6 armor level, the vehicle can shield occupants from high-powered rifle fire and withstand multiple grenade blasts originating directly underneath. According to INKAS, the build adds bulletproof glass, runflat tires and reinforced structural points, with optional engine-bay armoring, a fire suppression system and a roof escape hatch.
How powerful is the armored Defender?
Apart from its exceptional security capabilities, the INKAS armored luxury SUV prioritizes passenger comfort and performance. Its construction ensures a remarkably smooth ride across even the most challenging terrains while preserving the Defender's renowned maneuverability. Powering this vehicle is a potent supercharged 5.0-liter V8 producing an impressive 518 horsepower, so drivers can confidently navigate any road, from paved surfaces to rough terrain. As Robb Report notes, that armor adds significant weight, which the V8 comfortably overcomes.
Why choose an armored luxury SUV?
Every aspect of this SUV has been meticulously designed to safeguard occupants in hazardous situations. From reinforced essential construction points to key mechanical components, no detail has been overlooked. For executives, diplomats and security-conscious buyers, the INKAS Defender delivers protection that stays invisible behind a standard luxury exterior.
