Back in July 2018, Toronto-based INKAS Armored Vehicle Manufacturing unveiled a $1.2 million Mercedes-Benz G63 SUV, which was loaded to the brim with protection fit for royalty.
Fit for kings of nations or folks with billion-dollar net worths, the 563 horsepower 5.5L V8 INKAS G63 comes with otherworldly armor, including bulletproof windows, reinforced door hinges, run-flat tires, and enough ammo stopping power with B7 rated ballistics protection, capable of taking blasts from two DM51 hand grenades.
Per Inkas Armored:
INKAS® is proud to announce a new and improved version with a refined interior cabin and upgraded components. The new release transforms an already-unique SUV into a bespoke, ultra-luxurious and fully armored limousine. INKAS® dedicated great resources towards improving upon the best features of the initial iteration, while implementing new upgrades and a meeting a CEN 1063 BR7 armor level this time around - one full level higher than its predecessor.

While maintaining the level of comfort and protection expected from all INKAS® armored vehicles, the new Mercedes-Benz G63 armored limousine effectively sets a new status quo within its elite segment.
On the technology side, it also comes equipped with an Apple TV compatibility. A 4K monitor and a suite of thermal and infrared security cameras also snap images of the perimeter and uploads them to a server, presumably for a rider's security team to analyze.
However, arguably its greatest engineering feat is the fact overall weight is comparable to a standard G-Wagon.
"By all measures, we have successfully maintained a weight distribution almost identical to that of an un-stretched G-Wagon," said Philip Daskal, INKA's VP of sales. "When coupled with our suspension and brake system upgrades, the vehicle handles, corners and brakes very similarly to a soft-skin G63."
Now, what would happen if a third DM51 hand grenade were thrown at it?
