XLS (Armored)

"Poised delicately between BAWSAQ chic and bone-crunching utility, the Benefactor XLS is every car to everyone. Whether you're attending a board meeting halfway up a rugged cliff face or ferrying humane remains out of your place of work,it's reassuring to know the Germans have got your back. Armored version available, obviously."

- Legendary Motorsport description.

The Benefactor XLS (Armored) is a luxury armored SUV featured in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Further Adventures in Finance and Felony update.

Grand Theft Auto Online
As an armored variant of the XLS, it appears with armored plating and the necessary heavy duty steel wheels. The SUV appears to take influence from the Merecedes-Benz GL-Class range, particularly the GLS63 AMG and GLC, where it takes the overall shape, beltline, hood styling, and loosely some of the frontal fascia features, such as the grille and headlights. The front fascia takes more influence from the third-generation Hyundai Santa Fe, sharing similar shaped headlights, grille alignment and additional lights. The vehicle appears to have a large Benefactor logo on the front grille. It hods ovular rear lights which can be seen wrapping around the rear quarter panel of the vehicle. The vehicle has armored plating on the side of the doors, around the front fascia, and window armoring, similar to the Armored Baller LE and LWB. The rear of the vehicle has an "XLS" badge.

Grand Theft Auto Online
Being an SUV, the car is best performing off-road. Its all-wheel drive layout and its traction within its tires prove excellent on rough terrain, and make performance better on-road too. The car has reasonable acceleration, but a better top speed than the typical SUV in the game. Overall, it is more comparable to the Gresley. Its height often causes the vehicle to tempt rolling over, but its suspension counteracts this, as seen with the large shockers and springs found off the vehicle's chassis. The engine sound is somewhat unique, being similar to a cross crane V6 or V8 engine. The engine cover also appears to be a single-cam V8. Due to its added weight from the armor plating, it isn't as fast as its normal counterpart, but can take on against collisions and gunfire.
