The Mbombe 6 is a bomb-proof 6×6 has some pretty impressive including internal tire inflation/deflation for handling tough terrain and a longer frame than its predecessors, resulting in increased stability.
The ready-for-anything car also includes helicopter lift lugs for easy transportation and is built to withstand heavy blasts of 50kg from the side and 10kg of TNT underneath.
However, when it comes to day-to-day driving, it’s not entirely practical because there are no side doors, meaning entry is either through the rear or a top hatch that can also be fitted with large weapon systems of 60–80mm caliber.
Perhaps most importantly, grabbing a bite to eat on the go via a McDonald’s Drive Thru is a struggle due to the armored vehicle’s sheer size – and the fact that it doesn’t have any all-important cup holders, of course.
