Rezvani Arsenal teased as most advanced armored luxury vehicle with up to 675 hp

American automotive designer Rezvani Motors has teased its new armored luxury vehicle, called Arsenal, in a social media post. The retro-inspired SUV is scheduled to be launched in a few weeks into the automotive world. The SUV will come with cutting-edge armor technology. It makes use of "innovative composite material” instead of traditional ballistic steel. The composite material is lightweight and provides B6 levels of protection, meaning that the model will be able to handle an assortment of handguns and rifles.

Though Rezvani has not revealed much details about the Arsenal SUV but it has confirmed that it will have a “military-inspired design” that is “elegant and more incognito” than the other vehicles designed by the company. As one can gather from the teaser shared by the company, the model gets a bulging hood, a sloping roof, and blind spots. It will come as a seven-seater and offer traditional luxury features.

On the mechanical front, Arsenal will come with a V8 engine producing 420 hp of power, based on the Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Tahoe, or GMC Yukon models. All the three models also offer a 6.2-liter V8 with the same output. The company also confirmed the plans to bring in another variant of the vehicle with 675 hp of power.

The standard model will be priced at USD 225,000 while the armoring will come as an optional benefit with more premium. Customers can book their armored vehicle by paying a token amount of USD 150, which is a refundable deposit. Deliveries of the vehicle are slated to begin this summer.

Other models in Rezvani's portfolio include Tank, Hercules, and Vengeance, all adorning a rugged yet futuristic look. Speaking about the Arsenal, the company's CEO Ferris Rezvani, said “This is no ordinary car, it’s a thrilling blend of luxury, security, and innovative design. Your daily commutes are about to get a lot more interesting! Arsenal will showcase the newest and most advanced lightweight armor technology available on the market today."
