This is the Dartz Stallion, an armored SUV for the U.S. market designed in Latvia but manufactured in Florida.
Officially known as the Prombron Black Stallion Type C (yep, that’s the actual name), this is a brutal, gigantic SUV for the ultra-rich.
It’s massive, and massively expensive.
It also is very powerful, coming in with over 1,500 horsepower.

What we can expect from this armored SUV
This is the first model designed specifically for customers in the U.S., and it’s based on the old Hummer H2.
To be honest, you can kind of tell just by looking at the vehicle.
Dartz wants to build these in Florida, but we still don’t know exactly where.
What we do know is that the V8 engine that powers it makes at least 1,500 horsepower, and you’re going to need all that power because the vehicle is bulletproof, and therefore very heavy.
The SUV is rumored to start at around $500,000, but each Dartz Stallion will be built to match the requirements its specific owner, so that price can easily go up.
The story behind Dartz
Dartz Motorz (spelled with a ‘z’, non an ‘s’, apparently) is a Latvia-based company that designs, manufactures, and sells high-performance armored vehicles.
The company is mainly known for its luxury SUVs and was even featured in Sacha Baron Cohen’s political satire comedy The Dictator.
The brand usually takes supercars and customizes them according to the user’s needs.
Anant Ambani, the son of Asia’s richest man Mukesh Ambani owns one, and the one he owns is actually based on a Mercedes-Maybach GLS 600.
Dartz also offers a Lamborghini Urus-based conversion, and of course the Hummer H2-based model we see here.
The one thing they all have in common, clearly, is that they’re not inconspicuous vehicles.
