BMW PROTECTION VEHICLES.
People who bear the greatest responsibilities should be able to rely on the greatest protection – without having to sacrifice the unique driving experience that only a BMW can offer. BMW has been setting new standards in the design and construction of armoured vehicles for over 40 years. Our current model range continues this tradition in impressive style. Climb in and settle back, safe in the knowledge that you couldn’t be in a more secure or more relaxing environment. Every protection vehicle is custom-built and every stage of the process is carried out with a craftsman’s attention to detail. The result is a vehicle that meets the highest standards of ballistic protection, while also fulfilling the most individual of requirements.
SAFETY WITHOUT COMPROMISE: BMW X5 PROTECTION VR6.
The optimal amount of security for driver and passengers depends on where they are located, the challenges they face in their daily routine and the public attention they attract. And no one should be able to tell that you are sitting in an armoured vehicle. That is why the new BMW X5 Protection VR6 features the latest BMW security technology: armour-plating that is perfectly aligned with the contours of the standard model’s body work. As a result, the protection vehicle looks just like a standard model, both inside and out. The BMW X5 Protection VR6 also comes with Post-Blast Protection, which means that the all-armoured windows remain safe, especially for secondary attacks, with no openings between the window and the bodywork which could be used during additional attacks.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What level of protection does the BMW x5 Protection VR6 offer?
All BMW protection vehicles are subjected to a comprehensive testing regime and officially certified on compliance according to the internationally recognised ballistic guidelines for bullet resistant vehicles, the BRV 2009. So you can be absolutely confident that you are getting the best possible protection. The abbreviation “VR6” (“Vehicle Resistance”), that is part of the BMW X5 Protection VR6 model’s name, represents the resistance class that the special protection vehicle is certified with (VPAM BRV 2009 in the current version). Civil protection vehicles are classified in VR1 to VR10 resistance classes. Additionally, this vehicle is certified according to the ERV 2010 and PAS 300 guidelines.
What is the BMW X5 Protection VR6 protected against?
The armouring of the passenger cell is made out of high-strength steel parts. Combined with the armoured boot divider as standard, it protects against hand- and long guns up to a calibre of 7.62 × 39 mm FeC. Furthermore, the joint area is also protected against a calibre of 7.62 × 39 mm SC. Both calibres are used in the most popular weapon, the Kalaschnikov AK-47. Moreover, the passenger cell can withstand attacks of 15 kilograms TNT from a four metre distance. Additionally an extended roof protects against explosive devices such as the DTG5. An external underbody armour, made out of aluminium and ballistic steel, shields you against shock waves and splinter effects, coming from an attack with DM51 hand grenades. This underbody armour can be strengthened with fibre composites to resist an attack with a HG85 hand grenade.
The vehicle also comes with Post-Blast-Protection, which means that the all-armoured window panes remain in their position so that no openings between glass and body arise. This way we prevent gaps between glass and bodywork, that could be used as further points of attack. On top, the Self-Sealing Fuel Tank, that reseals itself after damage, and underbody armouring ensure that you’re protected all around.
