    Published on

    By Milcah Tanimu

    When it comes to choosing an official car for presidents or heads of government worldwide, security takes precedence before all else. These vehicles, often armored to the highest standards, offer a blend of security, luxury, speed, and advanced technology.

    Mercedes Benz
    Mercedes Benz is a popular choice among world leaders, with models like the S-Class Pullman or Mercedes Maybach being favored for their exceptional comfort and security features. However, some leaders, like the United States President, opt for vehicles produced domestically as a display of patriotism.

    Nation-Built Cars
    Countries such as France, China, the United Kingdom, and Russia produce cars for their leaders, boasting top-notch luxury and security. These vehicles, equipped to withstand ballistic and chemical threats, make bold statements and ensure the safety of their occupants.

    Nigeria’s Choice
    In Nigeria, presidents have historically favored Mercedes Benz S-Class or Maybach models for their official cars, renowned for their advanced security features and luxurious interiors. Other models like the Mercedes G-Class, Toyota Land Cruisers, and Lexus SUVs may also be used.

    The Beast
    The American President’s official car, known as “The Beast,” is a Cadillac or Lincoln Continental designed by General Motors. These stretch limousines, costing millions of dollars, are equipped with sophisticated security features and are capable of navigating through potential threats.

    British and Russian Royalty
    The British monarch rides in a Bentley Limousine, while the Russian President travels in an Aurus Senat, a luxurious vehicle reminiscent of the Rolls Royce Phantom. These cars are armored and provide utmost security and comfort.

    China and North Korea
    China’s President travels in a Hongqi N501, a heavily armored sedan, while the North Korean President relies on a Mercedes-Benz Maybach S600 Pullman Guard, powered by a formidable V12 engine.

    German Precision
    The German Chancellor’s official car, a Mercedes-Benz S600 Guard, exemplifies German engineering prowess with its powerful V12 engine and advanced security features.

    French Elegance
    The French President’s car, the DS7 Crossback, offers a blend of luxury and efficiency with its E10 powertrain plug-in, delivering an impressive 300 horsepower.

    While this list is not exhaustive, it showcases the diverse array of official cars used by world leaders, each designed to ensure security and comfort for their occupants.
