Suburban Shield uses bespoke chassis and suspension to handle the added weight of armor. Armored Suburban offers configurations like captain’s chairs and third-row jump seat options. Powertrain options include a standard 6.2-liter V8 or an optional 3.0-liter Duramax turbodiesel. The new Chevrolet Suburban Shield armored vehicle won’t just be used at home in the US by the security and law enforcement arm of the US Department of State.
The armor used has been incorporated directly into the design and manufacturing process of the vehicle, meaning GM Defense doesn’t have to strip down cars, upgrade, and then reassemble them, like aftermarket armoring firms do. “GM Defense’s next-generation Suburban Shield offers the Qatar Armed Forces unrivaled performance thanks to GM’s advanced technologies, president of GM Defense, Steve duMont, said.
