It may not be the latest Mercedes-Benz S600 Pullman Guard limousine version, however, the car on Tuesday became the centre of attraction. This armoured car that belongs to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un also served as a ride for US President Donald Trump on Tuesday. Both the leaders reportedly departed the US-North Korea summit in Singapore in this car.
Mercedes S600 Pullman Guard limo looks to be from the W221 generation, sold from 2008 to 2013, and features white leather upholstery, according to a Business Insider report. The car's estimated worth is over $US1 million. According to the report, Kim’s limo is powered by a 517-horsepower, 5.5-litre, bi-turbo V12 engine. The S600 Pullman is massive, it is reportedly around 21 feet long, . The car has been specially modified to suit Kim’s personal needs.
Though Mercedes-Maybach launched an updated S650 Pullman limo, there is no armoured Guard version of the new model. If you want bullet resistant luxury car, then you have to opt for the S600 model.
