Designed to withstand the most damaging and targeted threats the vehicle is verified to VR8 standard against ballistic threats, meaning it can withstand armour piercing incendiary bullets and the blast from DM51 grenade explosions.
In addition to this level of security the Range Rover Sentinel retains Land Rover’s huge breadth of capability and uncompromised levels of luxury and refinement. The vehicle has no differences on the exterior to the standard Range Rover Autobiography, despite its level of protection.
The Sentinel will make its global debut at the Defence and Security Equipment International Exhibition at London’s Excel arena between the 15th and 18th September. Visitors will be able to see the vehicle up close and learn about the six–piece armoured passenger cell, made of super-high-strength steel and the multi-laminated armoured privacy glass, which provides bullet protection. Other features include an anti-tamper exhaust, a self-sealing fuel tank, an auxiliary back up battery and run flat inserts on the tyres, which allow the vehicle to be driven on even if the tyres are deflated.
