We’ve heard of armored high-end flagship
sedans and SUVs, but a crossover with ballistic protection? Yep, say hello to
the 2020 Cadillac XT6 from AddArmor, a company founded and run by Special
Operations and law-enforcement veterans.
Specialized in turning pretty much every
vehicle into a “mobile safe-room”, it has modified the 2020 XT6, fitting it
with their anti-intrusion package that costs US$ 28,000. This includes
bullet-resistant windows, fortified doors and hatches, ballistic protection
panels and run-flat tires that will ensure a safe getaway for up to 80 km)after they are damaged.
Starting from US$ 86,000, US$ 28,905 more than
the Sport trim level on which it is based, the armored 2020 XT6 has “minimal
additional weight” and retains the 3.6-liter V6, which still pumps out 310 HP and 367 Nm of torque. It also features a bunch of
safety systems, including night vision, lane departure warning, blind spot
warning, front pedestrian braking and so on, and can further be enhanced with
other gear, be it from Cadillac or AddArmor.
