Aurus Senat

The Aurus Senat (Russian: Сенат) is a car developed by NAMI in Moscow, Russia.[2] The armored limousine is powered by a 4.4 litre V8 engine jointly developed by NAMI and Porsche, with a 6.6 litre V12 becoming available at a later date.[2][3] It is the Presidential state car of Russia.[3] Development of the Senat started in 2013.[4]

The Aurus Senat is part of the Kortezh series, which will include a sedan, a minivan and an off-road vehicle.[5] The Senat will be displayed at the Moscow International Automobile Salon in September 2018.[4]

Cars of the Kortezh series (also known in Russian: Единая модульная платформа, ЕМП, lit. 'Unified Modular Platform') will be exported to the Middle East and China from late 2018.[6] A civilian version of the Senat will be manufactured by a joint venture between NAMI and Sollers.[6] Retail prices are expected to start at 10 million rubles ($160,000).[7]
