Dubbed “Limo Number One”, ZIL-4112R was specifically designed and built for the President of Russia as head of state.

This massive and boxy six-door armoured ZIL-4112R Stretch Limousine, just like its predecessor, the ZIL-41052, ferried past Russian Presidents from 2006.

The ZIL-4112R limousine, produced from 2006 to 2012, was dubbed “Limo Number One”. It was specifically designed and built for the President of Russia as head of state.

ZIL-4112R has six doors and a 7.7-liter fuel-injection gasoline engine connected to a 6-speed automatic transmission. It outputs 400 hp (298 kW).

The vehicle weighs 3.5 tonnes, has a top speed of 125 mph (201 km/h) and has a fuel efficiency of 11 miles per gallon of fuel (25 liters per 100 km).

Inside, it features a calf-leather upholstery as well a video screens to show the exterior even if the windows are covered.

ZIL-4112R features a novel approach to dual-zone climate control, and to prevent the two zones of air mixing with each other, an “air wall” separates the two.

The ZIL-4112R was produced by MSC 6, which became an independent company “MSTS6 ZIL”. The company continues to carry out repair and restoration of ZiL passenger cars and assembles new ZIL-4112R limousines.

A 2012 ZIL-4112R stretch limousine with just 88 miles on the odometer reportedly built as a prototype for Russian President Vladimir Putin, recently came up for sale for $1,200,000 — which is just about $200k cheaper than a brand new US presidential state car, aka the ‘Beast’.
