Russian President Vladimir Putin is counted among the most secure leaders in the world. He uses a bulletproof and high-tech security car on every tour. Even after reaching India, his special Aurus Senat car was already present at the airport, but surprising everyone, he traveled with Prime Minister Modi in a white armored Fortuner. After this, the question started arising in the minds of people that what is the difference between Aurus Senat and Fortuner and which car is more powerful.

Aurus Senat

• Aurus Senat is a luxury sedan limousine, which has been specially built for the President of Russia. It is also called a four-wheeled fort, because this car is no less than any military vehicle in terms of security. This car has no effect on bombs, missiles or firing. Even if its tires burst, the car continues to move fast without stopping. This car can reach a speed of 100 kilometers per hour in 6 seconds. Its design is such that it does not sink even in water and special technology has been installed in it to protect it from chemical attack. The price of Aurus Senat starts from around Rs 2.5 crore, but Putin’s car has so many security features that its real price is considered to be many times more than this.

Toyota Fortuner

• Toyota Fortuner has become the first choice of people due to its strength on the road, large size and power. Fortuner is also used in the convoys of leaders and officials of many countries. Although it lags far behind the Aurus Senat in terms of luxury and safety features, the price of Fortuner in India starts from around Rs 33 lakh and goes up to Rs 58 lakh. It comes with 2.7 liter petrol and 2.8 liter turbo-diesel engines, out of which the diesel engine gives power of 204PS and torque of 500Nm. This car is also very reliable in terms of safety and has received a 5-star rating in the NCAP crash test.

Why did Putin sit in the Fortuner?

• The biggest question of all was that when Putin has the safest car in the world, why did he sit in the Fortuner? Actually, the Fortuner in which Putin was sitting was not an ordinary SUV, but it was also an armored version. This car also has the ability to withstand any kind of attack and such security features were installed in it that can meet the security requirements of the presidential level. Therefore, Putin and Prime Minister Modi could travel in this Fortuner without any danger.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is going to visit India on 4th and 5th December, but this time as much attention will be on his visit, the same attention will be on his special presidential car Aurus Senat. This is the same car, which the whole world recognizes as a fort on wheels. This limousine, prepared under Russia’s ambitious Cortege Program, has been Putin’s official vehicle since 2018. Not only this, Russia has also gifted this car to some select leaders like North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

As heavy and safe as this limousine looks from outside, it runs on equally powerful machinery from inside. The car has a 4.4 liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, which is connected to hybrid technology. Its power is so much that it picks up speed within a few seconds, but its specialty is that despite increasing speed, safety and stability never weakens. This engine works very smoothly even during long journeys, which is very important for presidential level travel.

How is Aurus Senat?
The cabin of Aurus Senat looks like a luxurious hotel. The high-end leather, genuine woodwork, serene environment and comfort features provided on the rear seats make it one of the most luxurious presidential cars in the world. From massage to heating and ventilation, every feature is designed in such a way that there is no outside noise or stress during the journey. Putin’s diplomatic movements are completed in this calm environment.

One of the strongest presidential cars in the world
The real identity of Aurus Senat is its security system. The entire structure of the car has been designed in such a way that it can withstand any type of attack. Its body is made of special armored steel, which has the ability to stop even bullets, grenades and explosives. The tires are also made in such a way that the car can run for long distances even in case of puncture or bullet injury. The electronic security systems present in the car immediately detect potential threats and keep driving under control.

Design and size
This limousine is much larger in size than ordinary cars and its design has been completely designed keeping in mind the official travels. This car makes its presence felt as soon as it moves on the road and its huge structure provides additional protection to the President sitting inside. Whenever there is any high-level event in Russia, this car becomes the most important part of the security convoy.

Price and availability
Aurus Senat is produced only in very limited quantities every year. This vehicle is not made for the general market, but is made available only for special government needs and some selected international partners. The price of this car is around Rs 2.5 crore, but considering its safety and technology, it is considered to be the favorite car of the powerful personalities of the world.
