The safest BMW X5

Complying with the requirements of bullet resistance class 6 (APR 2006), this is the first vehicle produced by a high-volume manufacturer to offer a security concept aimed at lessening the danger of attacks from an AK-47.Complying with the requirements of bullet resistance class 6 (APR 2006), this is the first vehicle produced by a high-volume manufacturer to offer a security concept aimed at lessening the danger of attacks from an AK-47.

The concept for the X5 Security Plus focuses on an armoured passenger cabin, which guarantees excellent protection. Utilising high-performance steel moulded components and panels, the body features sealed joints, which also provide protection in critical areas - between doors and frames as well as between side panels and pillars, thus preventing bullet or fragment penetration, as well as security glass conceived exclusively for this bullet resistance class.
