Here are President Donald Trump’s Newest Batch of "Beasts"

There’s a new presidential "Beast" in town, and where else to make their debut than in the U.N. General Assembly?

Now part of the dozen presidential limousines that made their debut during former President Barack Obama's term, the newest "Beasts" were introduced with lesser fanfare compared to its siblings. They're actually the first ones that skipped the presidential inauguration.

Conservative changes

The designs haven’t changed much from the original Beasts. The 2+3+2 layout with middle row seats remain firmly intact.

So far, the biggest change that was made to the Beast during its entire history can be found in the foundation. They have opted to use the GMT800-based platform found in the Chevrolet Suburban instead of the usual sedan structure commonly used in limousines.

Despite the conservative modifications, there are still traces of changes found in President Donald Trump’s newest beast. The most noticeable ones can be seen in the pillars. It seems they've removed the glass panel in-between B and C pillars to lessen the weight. The rear part, particularly the trunk, also looks shorter compared to its predecessors.

Interestingly, it's not just the rear that got shortened a bit--the once metal top on the edge of the windshield glass is now gone, shortening the headroom to a couple of inches or so.

Performance is pretty much non-existent here, since the Beast really isn’t designed to impress us with its lightning speed capabilities. Besides, with all the weight, protection, and armor it carries, probably the only speed that will impress you are the shotguns they'll use at you in case you force yourself inside.

"Quiet" Introduction

Now a part of the almost 12 dozen similar limousines that made their debut during Former President Obama’s term, the new batches made their debut with lesser fanfare compared to its siblings. They're actually the first "Beasts" that skipped the presidential inauguration.

Whatever the case, it's still a marvelous piece of machinery. Many of the presidential fleets will be used as backups--or perhaps decoys. Still, we're wondering why you need a dozen of them, with prices ranging from USD1-1.5 million to USD15 million.
