The Aurus Limo Senat series L700 drew international attention when it brought the Russian president to his inauguration in 2018.
Russian minister of trade, Mr. Denis Manturov, told the president even gave the limo some feedback. The car designers rushed to implement it immediately.

In 2013 Russia implemented the Cortege project, designed to bring the spotlight onto countries car manufacturing. The Research Automobile and Automotive Engines Institute is leading the project.
The interior of the limo is focusing greatly on the comfort of the passengers.

The drinks compartment sports a fancy refrigerator and Aurus-brand crystal glasses.
