A leader in advanced defence solutions, U.S. Armor Group<\/a> has introduced a fully-armoured American-made electric sedan, the Lucid Air. This fortified armoured vehicle is based on the top-spec variant of the Lucid Air called the Sapphire. It is recognised as the world\u2019s fastest-production armoured vehicle. Here are all the changes made to the sedan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exterior Changes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While the armoured Lucid Air<\/a> Sapphire maintains its sleek and aerodynamic silhouette, it has undergone substantial modifications to enhance its protective capabilities.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exteriors of the car are added with lightweight composite material, which is said to be ten times stronger and five times lighter than ballistic steel. It also features ballistic windows, that are capable of stopping a round from a .44 magnum handgun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interior Changes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The interior of the armoured Lucid Air Sapphire remains as luxurious as its standard counterpart, offering occupants a premium and comfortable experience. However, additional protective features have been integrated to ensure safety in the face of threats.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The seats and headliner are reinforced with impact-resistant materials to shield occupants from shrapnel and debris. Even the floor pan is fortified to withstand blasts and mines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New Features Added<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Lucid Air Sapphire, already equipped with standard security features, is further fortified in its armoured variant with advanced cybersecurity measures. The vehicle’s internal systems are shielded by an impenetrable internet and Wi-Fi security package, rendering it impervious to hacking attempts and unauthorized access to sensitive data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, the vehicle is integrated with a sophisticated threat detection system that continuously scans the environment, drawing intelligence from a vast network of sources, including local law enforcement scanners. This proactive security measure ensures the vehicle’s occupants remain protected against potential threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Optional Add Ons<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For those seeking the pinnacle of automotive security, U.S. Armor Group offers a suite of advanced countermeasures to complement the Lucid Air Sapphire. These enhancements include electric shock door handles, concealed gun ports, and sophisticated systems designed to detect and neutralize chemical threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

U.S. Armor\u2019s Response Crew<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The vehicle’s communication system incorporates a one-touch outreach feature, enabling immediate contact with U.S. Armor Group’s support team for swift assistance. This team, composed of seasoned professionals with backgrounds in elite military and law enforcement, ensures a rapid and effective response to any situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Performance Changes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

These modifications add only an incremental 175kg to the Sapphire’s total curb weight, resulting in a final figure of 2,595kg. Considering the substantial level of protection provided, this weight increase is negligible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

U.S. Armor Group claims that its armoured Air Sapphire retains the capability to reach speeds of 320km\/h and likely approaches the factory’s 0-100km\/h acceleration time. The suspension system has been meticulously fine-tuned to accommodate the added weight without compromising ride quality or handling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
