3/16/22 Fredericksburg, Virginia

They created a self-enclosed bolted structural cell that is assembled inside of the original body shell. The armor components are then affixed to the shell, leaving no gaps. Extra plating and reinforcement is added to counter any inherent structural weakness.The zero-joints design was then tested with an array of gun fire, collisions and explosions. All of which exceeded the company's expectations.The Invicto also has a modified chassis to easily handle the extra weight. Brabus Automotive added an entirely new wheel suspension. Thus, ensuring the vehicle has a long road life. Beyond that, many more improvements were made such as reinforcing brake discs, springs, shock absorbers and stabilisers. Brabus Automotive incorporated 3-D printing to ensure they got the exact specifications on the components they wanted to add.[caption id="attachment_23297" align="alignnone" width="1920"]
