Beyond Luxury: Rezvani Arsenal Transforms the Cadillac Escalade into a $700k Bulletproof Fortress
Rezvani is back, and this time they’ve taken the opulence of the Cadillac Escalade and transformed it into the ultimate fortified SUV. Meet the Arsenal, a vehicle melding luxurious comfort with military-grade protection, available for a startup price of $225,000—but that’s just the beginning.
The Powerhouse Under the Hood
The base model of the Arsenal isn’t just about fancy features; it comes packed with a 6.2-liter V8 engine, dishing out 420 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. For those looking to customize their powerhouse, Rezvani offers options. Swap out the V8 for a 3.0-liter turbodiesel with 277 horsepower for a modest $3,500, or supercharge the V8 for 650 hp at an additional cost of $55,000. And if that’s not enough, the top-tier, massively muscular 810-hp V8 can be yours for an eye-watering $125,000 more.
Uncompromised Protection: The Security Package
This impressive SUV doesn't stop at power. For an extra $62,000, the Security Package offers an array of life-saving features: a smoke screen, run-flat tires, reinforced suspension, protection against electromagnetic pulses, steel ram bumpers, electrified door handles, and more. This package also includes essential emergency equipment like gas masks, a hypothermia kit, a first aid kit, and even a pepper spray dispenser.
Go Military Grade: Armor Up with the Military Package
If standard protection doesn't cut it, the Military Package elevates this beast to another level. At $98,000, this package includes B4 bulletproof glass and body armor, underside explosive protection, and a video recording system. Notably, it also features the capacity for explosive device detection—perfect for those who live life in the most unpredictable environments. For ultimate security, the B6+ advanced composite armor package protects against high-caliber rounds from AR15s and AK47s, including armor-piercing bullets. Remarkably, this advanced composite armor is significantly lighter than traditional ballistic steel, shedding over 1,000 pounds while providing unparalleled protection.
An SUV That Weighs As Much as It Costs
The Rezvani Arsenal isn't just heavy on the wallet. With the B6+ armor package, this Escalade-based SUV tips the scales at a whopping 8,100 lbs. Given the standard model already hefts around 6,200 lbs, the added weight underscores the comprehensive protection provided by Rezvani’s armoring.
Customization Options: From Luxe to Ludicrous
The Arsenal’s customization options are as diverse as they are extravagant. Paint finishes come at no extra cost, available in gloss shades like Fire Red, Black Ops, and Army Green, or satin finishes like Stealth Gray. Additional options include a 12,000-lb winch for $4,500, a roof-mounted LED light bar for $2,750, and even a bespoke puddle illumination feature for $2,000. For the interior, middle-row captain's chairs can be replaced with luxurious alternatives for up to $14,500, while trim and finish options range between $5,000 to $10,000.
Want to take luxury to the next level? The Executive Seating option offers a suite-like experience within your armored fortress. With two reclining seats featuring massage, heat, and ventilation functions, a bar, a driver partition with a TV, and iPads, this package delivers unparalleled comfort. Add a performance exhaust for $4,500, six-piston calipers for $6,500, and an array of additional features such as night vision and rifle compartments, and you're looking at a grand total close to $700,000.
Rezvani’s Arsenal represents the pinnacle of luxury and protection, offering peace of mind and unparalleled performance for those who can afford the price tag. Whether you're navigating urban jungles or actual conflict zones, the Arsenal ensures that you do so ensconced in the highest levels of safety and comfort.
