About
MEVA LYNX
The MEVA Lynx is an armoured personnel carrier built on the Toyota Land Cruiser 79 chassis, a platform chosen for parts availability and field servicing wherever the vehicle is posted. Power comes from a 3,445 cc petrol V6 producing 415 hp and 650 Nm, which is what sets it apart from the other Land Cruiser 79 carriers in our range.
Seating and interior layout are specified per order, so the same vehicle can carry a full patrol team on one contract and a smaller crew with more equipment on another.
It suits police, paramilitary and security units that want a straightforward protected carrier on a familiar chassis. Need a double cab that seats 11? See the MEVA Valor Plus.
Every Lynx is backed by our Customer for Life programme, with maintenance, spare parts and driver training through our services.
Armouring Levels
The Lynx is listed at CEN Level B6, the European ballistic resistance standard for vehicle armour and glass, and at NATO STANAG Level I. Higher levels are available on request, and protection up to STANAG II can be specified as an option, so the build is matched to the threat on your routes rather than to a fixed catalogue level.

Armouring options
Distinctive to the Lynx are its customised rear seating options, anti-rust protection on the steel, and a roof hatch with turret and gun ports fitted as standard. Communications, crew-protection and power options are added on top of that specification.
Features
Protection is built around the crew compartment as a whole: armoured steel encloses the cabin, and the glass is layered so sight lines are kept without becoming the weak point. Beneath the body, the engine, battery and fuel tank are shielded so a hit to the front or flank does not stop the vehicle.
Rear Bench Seats
Secure and comfortable seating for multiple passengers, ensuring their safety during transit
Heavy Duty Bumpers
Enhanced protection to the vehicle by absorbing impact and reducing damage during collisions, ensuring durability in rugged conditions
Tactical Gun Ports
Safe and effective firing from within the vehicle, providing crew members with the ability to engage threats while remaining protected
Customizable Interior
Allows for tailored adjustments to the vehicle's interior layout, ensuring optimal functionality and comfort based on specific mission requirements
Multi-Layered Ballistic Glass
Superior protection by effectively resisting bullets and explosive impacts while maintaining visibility
Armour adds weight, so the brakes, suspension and tyres are upgraded to carry it without changing how the vehicle drives, and a run-flat system keeps it moving after tyre damage. The electrical system is sized for the communication and intercom equipment a unit adds, so extra kit does not drain what the vehicle needs to run.
Heavy Duty Brakes
Designed to handle the increased weight and demanding performance requirements of armoured vehicles. These brakes provide superior stopping power, reliability, and safety, ensuring that your vehicle can perform effectively in any situation.
