The US presidential limo known as the Beast might be getting an upgrade.
GM has made armored cars for American presidents for decades, and that relationship looks set to continue, according to Reuters, which says that Secret Service officials met GM officials last week to talk about new armored cars. The Secret Service confirmed as much in a post on social media on Friday.
“As threats evolve, we continue to explore emerging technologies to ensure our armored vehicles provide the highest level of safety for our protectees,” the Secret Service said in a post. “This week, Secret Service Director Sean Curran met with GM executives to discuss advancements that could benefit the next generation of armored SUVs.”
