Aurus Senat Car price in India

Russian President Vladimir Putin arrives in India today, accompanied by his security convoy, which includes one of the world’s most secretive and heavily protected vehicles: the Aurus Senat. This is Putin’s first visit to India in four years. During his trip, he will hold the wide-ranging talks with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, attend a state banquet and review the full spectrum of the India and Russia “special and privileged strategic partnership”. Aurus Senat Putin car price is 18 million rubles.

Vladimir Putin’s Aurus Senat

The Aurus Senat is Russia’s luxury limousine, which has been designed specifically for presidential and state use. Often called “Russian Rolls-Royce”, it features an imposing armoured body, blackout windows, and a plush, high-tech interior. Before adopting the indigenous model, President Putin used the Mercedes-Benz S 600 Guard Pullman, but Moscow later replaced the imported cars with vehicles built under its own Kortezh project, which is a programme to develop ultra-luxury, fully armoured official vehicles.

Launched during Putin’s 2018 inauguration, the Senat is manufactured by Aurus Motors, a collaboration between Russia’s NAMI institute, Sollers JSC, and the UAE’s Tawazun Holding. The mass production started in 2021 at Yelabuga, and the limousine has since appeared in several high-profile diplomatic events, including being gifted to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un in 2024.

Aurus Senat Price

The base Aurus Senat starts at around 18 million rubles. Aurus Senat Lumousine price in India is about Rs. 2.5 crore. Putin’s customised, fully armoured state version is equipped with classified security technology, making it nearly twice as expensive. Such versions are not available to ordinary citizens.
