Executive Protection International is proud to be able to offer clients in need of increased security, the latest in luxury and security with the
 Mercedes-Benz Guard S500
“Visible Luxury, Invisible Protection”

The Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 doesn't advertise that it's an armored car, designed and built to help protect occupants. It looks like every other Mercedes-Benz S500, and it boasts all the same safety, performance and styling features. But beneath the surface, it's much more. With ballistically certified glass and body and an array of special features, the Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 offers the protection you need for complete peace of mind. Rather than retrofitting an existing vehicle, Mercedes-Benz builds the Guard S500 from the ground up, adding only 880 pounds to the standard Mercedes-Benz S500. You'd expect nothing less from a company that's been building special protection vehicles for over 70 years.

Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 - Exclusive Features
***
Ballistics
In a secured location at the Guard assembly area, specialists test the composite security glass to verify resistance to direct hits by rounds up to and including .44 Magnum caliber. The body of the Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 Special Production Vehicle is also rigorously tested. Over 120 shots are fired from .44 Magnum and .357 Magnum caliber handguns at 45° and 90° angles into glass and metal surfaces from a distance of 5 meters (16.4 feet), which is when a bullet reaches its maximum velocity.
 ***
Certification Program
Mercedes-Benz ensures that every Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 meets the standards for Protection Level B4 rating* by the testing authority Beschussamt in Ulm, Germany, a third-party independent testing and certification service. To achieve this certification - also known as European Standard B4 - the Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 must be able to withstand armed attack from handguns up to .44 Magnum caliber. The Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 also meets all of the legendary standards for finish, function, reliability and performance that have been the hallmarks of Mercedes-Benz for more than 115 years.
***
Run-flat Tires
These special tires can continue traveling regardless of low tire pressure. Even if the tires are fully deflated, you can drive 15 miles or more (depending on road conditions) at up to 50 mph. Plus, an onboard monitoring system can display the pressure in all tires on an in-dash readout.
***
Composite Security Glass
Made of several layers including an inner polycarbonate sheet, the window glass is designed to resist handgun-projectiles up to and including .44 Magnum caliber, and its polycarbonate layer helps absorb dangerous glass splinters. Designed also for minimal distortion, the glass looks ordinary from outside.
***
Integrated Armor Plating
Special armor-steel plating has been integrated into the structure of the car in critical areas.
***
Overlapping System
To help make even critical zones safer, the meticulously tested overlapping system at all four doors is designed to substantially reduce the possibility of bullets passing through the door and window seams and into the passenger compartment.
 ***
 Self-sealing Fuel Tank
If this optional fuel tank is punctured, a special exterior coating on the tank, designed to reseal the hole caused by splinters in seconds, is automatically activated.
 ***
Enhanced Suspension
The suspension, springs and shock absorbers on the Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 are tuned and the rear axle is made with reinforced steel to maintain ride comfort despite the added weight of the armor.
 ***
 Dedicated Guard Production
Rather than retrofit an existing car, Mercedes-Benz builds each Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 from the ground up. The body structure comes from the standard assembly line to a dedicated Guard production area. A specially trained team of experts hand-integrates special armor-steel plating and composite security glass with reinforcements to the structure and suspension. The safety and performance systems such as ESP and Brake Assist are also specially programmed. This is where protection is built into the Mercedes-Benz Guard S500 – the kind of protection possible only with factory armoring.
