The Enus Cognoscenti 55 (Armored) is a luxury armored full-size sedan appearing in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the the Executives and Other Criminals update.
Design
Grand Theft Auto Online
The vehicle is essentially the armored variant of the Cognoscenti 55, which features armor padding on the sides and window armoring on the pillars. The chrome details from the base model were replaced by black, plastic-like ones, although the silver badging were retained in the vehicle.
Colour distribution is the same as the regular Cognoscenti 55 and the Cognoscenti, where the primary colour is applied to the body and the interior stitching, while the secondary colour is applied on the bonnet, roof, pillars and boot. A trim colour is also available for the interior, being applied to the dashboard, seats and door panels. Its wheels share the same rim design as the "Drag SPL" muscle rims available in Los Santos Customs, wrapped in high-profile tyres.

Performance
Grand Theft Auto Online
Compared to the standard version, the armored Cognoscenti 55 further improves in acceleration rate, and the turning remains impressive, though less impressive when compared to the original Cognoscenti 55 due to the extra weight.
The engine cover seems to be a single-cam V8, coupled to a 5-speed gearbox which is low-geared and is further connected to a rear-wheel-drive drivetrain. The engine sound is the same as the Tornado and the Bullet.
The Cognoscenti 55 (Armored) can take the following:
- 1 Sticky Bomb (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Homing Launcher/Rocket Launcher (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Grenade (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Missile/Tank Shell from a vehicle (Rhino Tank, Hydra, etc) (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- 1 Canon shot from a Valkyrie (where a 2nd will destroy the vehicle)
- Approximately 200 rounds of the Minigun.
- Approximately 3 seconds of firing from a mounted minigun (Valkyrie, Turreted Limo, etc)
It can be noted that the Cognoscenti 55 (Armored) shares its armored capabilities with the Cognoscenti (Armored), XLS (Armored), along with both armored Schafters and Baller LEs.
