Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman Guard Limousine

S600 Pullman

Mercedes-Benz’s special protection unit division has unveiled the Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman Guard limousine. These vehicles are generally used for not only rich people but very important people – prime ministers, presidents, royalty, maybe even the Pope, etc.

As you can see from the photos, the S600 Pullman Guard is long limousine based on the S600. It is over 6.3 meters in length and has a wheelbase of 4315mm, about 1150mm longer than the longwheelbase S-Class. The roof is also slightly higher for greater headroom in the interior.

Mercedes-Benz says it is not just an S-Class long wheelbase with an additional body section as it would have been impossible to guarantee long-term stability of the vehicle that way. It fits two (including driver) at the front section and four in the partitioned rear section, with the two rows passengers facing each other.

The Guard in its name indicates it has armored protection. It can withstand military grade small-arms projectiles, grenade fragments and other explosive charges. Other protective features include run-flat tyres, a self-sealing fuel tank and a built-in fire-extinguisher.

Rather than add on these protective components and armour onto a finished vehicle, it is fully integrated into the bodyshell during the production process.

Like the S600, it is equipped with a 5.5 litre twin turbocharged V12 engine producing 512 horsepower and 830Nm of torque. Look after the jump for a hi-res photo gallery.

    Then u’ll see this S600 running up and down in the war field.
    Driving the terrorist head like La’den(if he’s not death), Sadam(if he’s not death too)..
    Then the Infantry pointing their rifle, or left handle on them. And they will do funny face and say:”nah, u can’t catch me.”

    fugly… ugly s. o. a. b. If I have the money, I prefer the non pullman version aka normal S Class rather than this one. It’s not well proportioned IMHO. Nothing to say about the performance neither the interior of this car. Another thing, I think it deserve the engine with that kind of power since the Guard version, with the stretch body and the denser skin (to withstand all the bullets from the terrorist’s AK-47) and so called bulletproof glass windows and whatnot, and so on, it must have weigh at least 3 or so tonne. Right?

    yeah, you need a truck licence to operate it…i can’t imagine this car in a chase scene like in Ronin, can’t even do a J turn…they might even have to do a 5 point turn and by that time it’ll get blown to pieces by RPGs

    not anyone with plenty of money can buy the GUARD models. they will do a background check on everyone buying it so that it wont fall into the hands of bad people like…uhm..bin Laden? maybach does not offer GUARD models. GUARD models have been in the mercedes line up for quite some time

    Haha, the good and the bad.
    How do you define the good people or the bad people? Maybe you can say Laden is a terrorist; unlike the US which terrorises other countries for oil
    Bottom line is that as long as you have money, it wouldn’t really matter. With money the ‘bad’ will become ‘good’ in no time.

    lol. well, bad people as defined by the German Government or the US government? i mean sometimes it is not up to us to define who is good or bad. it doesnt really matter who we think they are, it is what the politicians or any sort of “powerful” person think that can influence people. at least that is what these people are for, influence other people’s mindset?

    but anyway, they do really have a background check on anyone buying it, of course being a German manufacturer, they cant go against their own government’s policy
