Hyundai will unveil an armoured premium full-size sedan at the Moscow Auto Show. The Equus Limousine Security has been developed by the Korean automaker with the collaboration of ArmorTech-Motors, the authorized distributor of Stoof International GmbH in Russia.

Offering ballistic and blast protection, this unique vehicle escapes trouble thanks to a 430-horsepower 5.0L Tau V8 engine. Hyundai insists that the complex armouring process hasn't compromised the Equus' ride and handling characteristics. An eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to the rear wheels.

The Hyundai Equus Limousine Security stands 5.46 metres long and weighs 3,840 kilograms (8,465 pounds).

Further details will be released at the Moscow Auto Show.
