Mercedes-Benz presented the new limousine based on the extended chasis of S series, named S600 Pullman. The name “Pullman” comes from the luxury rail cars produced by the American Pulman Palace Car Company. The first time Mercedes used this name, was in 1928 when the W08/460 Nurburg model was modified to be the first Popemobile, beeing obviously bulletproof.
The new “Pullman” has an 5513cc 12 cylinder biturbo engine which outpus 517 Hp and a peak torque of 830 Nm.

The first models of the new Mercedes Benz S600 Limousine will be delivered in late 2008 and they will probably be some of the most secure vehicles in the world. The Pullman Limousine has been tested to a B6/B7 resistance level and that means it can resist hand grenades fragments and it complies with the military projectile resistance. It includes a self-sealing fuel tank, a fire-extinguishing system and of course run-flat tires. Nothing about the price of the car, though.
