Toyota's new business in Brazil? Bulletproof modification, really hard work!

[ITBEAR] News on August 15th, the market always follows the demand, and this is the case for car bulletproof modification services. It is no longer exclusive to political dignitaries. Now ordinary Toyota car owners in Brazil can also enjoy this service. Of course, This requires an additional fee. Toyota Brazil has joined hands with a number of local armor modification companies to provide armor upgrade services for newly purchased vehicles and second-hand vehicles. Customers can send their vehicles to the selected armor company for modification through Toyota dealers, or they can place an order when purchasing the car and drive away directly in the bulletproof modified vehicle when picking up the car. According to ITBEAR, the models that can be modified include Corolla sedan, Corolla Cross SUV, Hilux pickup truck (Hilux) and SW4 (Fortuner) SUV. In addition, second-hand cars launched after 2020 are also eligible for such modifications after being evaluated by Toyota dealers. The armor company uses special composite materials to strengthen the body and install thicker windows to enhance the safety of the vehicle and is said to be able to withstand small gun fire and other attacks such as baseball bats or metal pipes. Toyota offers a 5-year warranty on armor installation services, while the warranty on materials is 5 or 10 years depending on the specific component. Unfortunately, the specific modification cost has not yet been announced, but it is foreseeable that this cost will probably be expensive. Even so, considering Brazil's high crime rate - 39,500 homicides were recorded in 2023, and this number has already declined, the cost of modifications pales in comparison to life safety.
