It looks like President Putin is getting a new limousine. According to Russia Today, Russia’s Industry and Trade Minister, Denis Manturov, told the Izvestia newspaper that Putin’s newly developed state car has passed its final crash test and the results were “positive,” he went on to say, “the cars for trial will be delivered on time before the end of April, I hope [the president] will start using this vehicle very soon.”

Although there aren’t many details regarding the specifications of the new Presidental Limousine around, it is reported that the car will be powered by a Porsche-developed 4.6-litre V8 turbocharged engine that offers 592bhp and 650ft lb of torque. The transmission is a Russian-developed nine-speed automatic.

Manturov also said the car will soon be presented to the public, “Specialists will be able to take a look during the Moscow international automobile salon this autumn,” he said.
