Land Rover Unveils Their First Luxury Armored Vehicle, The Sentinel

Visitors to the Defense and Security Equipment International Exhibition at London’s Excel Arena in September 2016 will be able to see Land Rover’s recently introduced Range Rover Sentinel, a model created by Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations Division and designed as a luxury armored vehicle. If you happen to be in London, you’ll be able to explore the Sentinel up close at its global debut. Some of the features attendees can learn about are the six-piece armored passenger cell, made of super-high-strength steel, the bulletproof multi-laminated privacy glass, tamper-proof exhaust, a self-sealing fuel tank and an auxiliary backup battery, among other things. One thing’s for sure – if you’re riding in a Land Rover Sentinel, you’ll definitely protected with super hero strength designed by Land Rover!

This Land Rover is designed to withstand ballistic threats such as armor-piercing incendiary bullets and a blast from a DM51 grenade, but from the outside looks like a standard – albeit beautifully crafted – Land Rover. We know our customers aren’t usually looking for a tank in sophisticated built to protect dignitaries and political figures, but we can all appreciate the remarkable craftsmanship and engineering that went into creating the Sentinel. It’s the first of its kind fully engineered by Land Rover’s Special Vehicle Operations Division. You may not need an armored vehicle, but Land Rover Lakeside has a great selection of new Land Rover inventory that you can see today at our showroom.
