THIS is the world’s “safest car”, designed to withstand a bomb or gas attack and equipped with bulletproof vests.
The tank-like SUV is fully road-legal and borrows bits from the Cadillac Escalade, but looks more similar to the Batmobile than any production car.

The aptly named Rezvani Vengeance looks fit for a superhero, with heavily armoured bodywork and bizarre safety features.
It was created by Rezvani Motors, an independent performance car manufacturer based in California.
The firm was best known for high-end sports cars like the Beast model, the first of which was purchased by music superstar Chris Brown.
But in 2022 it produced the Vengeance off-roader to nearly military-grade specs.
The model was actually designed by digital artist Milen Ivanov to look like it was straight out of a video game.
It was offered with either a three-litre diesel inline-six engine or a larger 6.2-litre petrol V8.
There is enough room inside for eight passengers across three rows of plush seats.
And they’ll surely travel in comfort given its 35in tyres and high-tech suspension designed to tackle even the toughest off-road conditions.
One has now gone up for sale through luxury car dealer Celebrity Cars Las Vegas.
The 2023 model features the optional “security package”, which includes bulletproof armouring, helmets and vests as well as gas masks, a steel ram bumper and pepper spray dispensers.
The body is so tough that it is reportedly able to withstand small bomb blasts.
It even has protections against electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attacks, which can disable electronic devices.
Other bizarre features include strobe lights, a smoke screen, magnetic deadbolt locking and a hypothermia kit.
Oh, and it has thermal night vision too, of course.
The listing promises that buyers can pick up the stunning motor straight away and not have to join the back of the manufacturer’s lengthy waiting list.
That’s if you can afford it, though, with the vengeance attracting a huge £312,000 price when all the extras are added.
Even without the apocalypse-proof spec, the base price is still £216,000.
It comes after an ultra-rare sports car that is one of just 27 ever made went up for sale at an even more eye-watering price.
