BMW India has introduced its armoured sedan based on the BMW 7 Series. The carmaker says the 760Li High Security is certified to the international standard guideline BRV 2009 and meets the highest requirements of ballistic protection.
According to Philipp von Sahr, president, BMW Group India, “The 760Li High Security provides optimum safety in combination with unparalleled comfort of travel, superior drive technology and an abundance of innovative equipment features.”
Made at BMW’s Dingolfing plant, specific chassis components are adapted to the increase in weight due to the sedan’s armour plating. This sees reinforced suspension, dampers and suspension strut top mountings being part of the model-specific component range. This approach, says BMW, ensures finely-tuned vehicle performance characteristics that cannot be achieved by retrofitted armour plating.
BMW provides personalised sales and service support, including special driver training programmes for security vehicles and its High-Security sedans are serviced by certified special garages only.
