With all the coverage of the Ignauguration, I thought I would get in on the deal and talk about Cadillac One, Obama’s G-Ride. A lot of other news outlets have been covering the limo but no-one will reveal any tech-specs on the car. Luckily I saved this image from gizmodo while they still had it live.  This is very interesting indeed.

I love this cutaway illustration of the new Cadillac One by John Lawson, Obama included. Specially things like “Doors: eight-inch thick and the weight of a 757 door”. Other highlights:

• It can withstand rocket impacts and it’s perfectly sealed against biochemical attacks.
• Petrol tank: Can withstand a direct hit thanks to a special foam and armor-plating.
• Bodywork: made of dual hardness steel, aluminum, titanium, and ceramics to “break up posible projectiles”.
• Tyres: Kevlar-reinforced with steel rims underneath so it can run away no matter what.
• Accessories include: Night vision cameras, pump-action shotguns, tear gas cannons.
• Comes with bottles of blood compatible with the President’s blood.
