5 fastest armored cars in GTA Online (fully upgraded)

GTA Online has a huge roster of vehicles and offers something for everybody. Considering the hostile nature of most multiplayer lobbies, it is natural that a lot of players like to drive around in armored cars. However, it's imperative that these vehicles are capable of going fast as well to avoid explosives and rockets. But it can be a little tricky to find this combination in the game.

Armored vehicles in GTA Online, as the name suggests, have an extra layer of protection to guard players against bullets, Homing Missiles, grenades, and other explosives. However, this extra weight also makes the vehicles comparatively slower. Fortunately, Rockstar has added some cars that can protect you while zooming past enemies with ease.

This article lists five of the fastest armored cars that GTA Online players should have in their garage.
