Comparing The Beast and Aurus Senat: Leaders' Armored Cars
When world leaders travel, they need cars that can keep them safe.
The US President's car, nicknamed 'The Beast,' is a super-strong Cadillac made just for them.
It has thick armor, can handle bombs, and even protects against dangerous chemicals.
Russia's President has the Aurus Senat, another very safe car with similar protections, including defenses against chemical attacks and a fire system.
Both cars have special communication systems, like mini-command centers, to stay connected.
'The Beast' isn't sold to the public, but the Aurus Senat is available for anyone to buy.
