President-elect Barack Obama’s new ride has arrived — and it’s a beast.

As first reported by FOXNews.com last November — and Tuesday by The Detroit News — a new model of a presidential limousine made by General Motors Corp. has been delivered to the Secret Service and will make its debut on Inauguration Day.

The vehicle, referred to by the Secret Service as “the beast,” will reportedly feature heavy armor that is at least 8 inches thick and comes complete with run-flat tires, bulletproof glass and a completely sealed interior to ward off a chemical attack, among many other high-tech security features.
