America now has its 44th President. And continuing a tradition that's almost as old as the automobile itself, President Barack Obama will cruise in an all-new Cadillac Presidential Limousine. The completely redesigned limo replaces the Cadillac DTS Presidential Limousine introduced in 2004 and while official details of the car's drivetrain, onboard tech and armored capabilities of course remain top secret, we do know a little bit about it. So which Cadillac is it, you ask? It's like nothing else on Earth-a complete custom, which picks up parts and components from across the entire Cadillac range. The chassis might actually be based on the GMC Topkick truck, because they knew that with all the security, it was going to be heavy! It's been described by some as a 'tank on wheels'. To give you an idea of how heavy it may be, the 6500cc diesel engine will endow it with a top speed of about 100kmph.
