History

edit

Cars of the Kortezh series (also known in Russian: Единая модульная платформа, ЕМП, lit. 'Unified Modular Platform')[8][9] were expected to be available for export to the Middle East and China in late 2018.[10] A civilian version of the Senat is manufactured by a joint venture between the NAMI and LiAZ firms.[10] Expected retail prices were increased in 2018 to 10 million rubles ($US160,000), but in 2021, still before the first deliveries, became higher than 20 million rubles (~$US300,000).[11] The Aurus Senat is part of the Kortezh series, which will eventually include a van and an SUV.[12]

On February 20, 2024, it was reported that Kim Jong-un received a Senat as a gift from President Vladimir Putin, which South Korea says is against UN sanctions on providing certain vehicles including luxury cars.[13] In mid March 2024, North Korean television released footage appearing to show Kim Jong-un using the car to attend a military event.[14] On June 19, 2024, Putin gave Kim another Senat as a gift.[15]

Design

edit

Development of the Senat began in 2013[16] with production, in civilian S600 or official L700 versions, beginning in 2021 at the Sollers JSC factory in Yelabuga.[17][18][19] Porsche and Bosch produced the engine.[20]

Versions

edit

The armoured limousine version is powered by a 4.4-litre V8 engine developed by NAMI, with a 6.6-litre V12 (634 kW [850 hp; 862 PS]) becoming available at a later date.[4]
