The new Aurus Komendant is equipped with an explosion-proof armored capsule made of 7-mm armored steel, as well as 50-mm armored glass. The car is able to withstand bullets from an AKM assault rifle with a heat-hardened core, as well as from an SVD sniper rifle. Protection level — B6/B7. In addition, this SUV can withstand the explosion of a hand grenade, such as F-1 or DM-51.

In addition, the SUV has special wheels and reinforced door hinges, which makes it reliable in all conditions.

Earlier it was reported that Aurus premium cars will receive Russian tires. The domestic manufacturer of luxury cars plans to partially switch to tires developed by Gislaved, which is part of the Cordiant holding.
