For example, in the United States, armored cars typically transport between $250,000 and $5 million per trip. However, in countries where cash is more prevalent, armored cars may carry much larger amounts of money. In 2019, for instance, an armored car in Brazil was robbed of $30 million.
The amount of money in an armored car is also influenced by the level of security provided by the vehicle and its crew. Armored cars equipped with advanced security features and staffed by experienced personnel can carry larger sums of money than less secure vehicles.
