But first, about the new Mercedes. The limousine is armored to VR9 standard, meaning it can withstand shots from an automatic rifle or a sniper rifle.
Additionally, it is protected against the blast of 15 kg of TNT from two meters away.

The bulletproof glass thickness reaches 60 mm, and there is no rear window – it is replaced by a steel plug. Even the partition between the driver and rear passengers is armored. The car weighs 5.1 tons and is equipped with a 530-horsepower V12.
The heavy doors are opened with the help of an electric drive.
The interior of the Mercedes S600 Pullman Guard is trimmed with expensive leather and wood, and the rear seats are equipped with electric drive, ventilation, and massage. There is a mini-bar and detachable tablets.
However, this is Lukashenko’s official car, and there is also a collection of exclusive cars. It turns out that Father is a car enthusiast and hidden treasures lie in his secret garage, no worse than those found in Mezhyhirya. Photos of the cars were published on the Telegram channel nexta-tv.
In particular, it is said that Lukashenko has as many as three Rolls-Royces – a modern Phantom Coupe and a couple of vintage Silver Dawns from the 1950s. The President of Belarus also owns a 1958 Chevrolet Impala convertible.
There are also Soviet limousines – an armored ZIS-115 (like Stalin’s) and a more modern ZIL-41045 from the 1980s. The Soviet auto industry is also represented by GAZ-M20 Pobeda, Moskvich-2140, and GAZ-69.
