Prime Minister Narendra Modi is one of the most important persons in India who have been designated as VVIPs and require an elaborate security cover as part of the SPG protection provided to the highest office bearers in the country including the President. While trained soldiers and futuristic weapons are part of their security detail, vehicles also play an important role and the SPG (Special Protection Group) carefully assesses the situation and threat level to choose a vehicle for the Prime Minister of India. Over the years, we have seen many vehicles become part of PM’s protection cover, the most prominent being the BMW 7-Series which has been a part of PM’s convoy for a long time. However, with the changing times, the SPG required more modern and safer cars and hence we have seen a variety of vehicles in which Modi travels. From made in India Mahindra Scorpio to Range Rover and even Land Cruiser, PM Modi has been seen riding in all these SUVs. (Modi most expensive car)
