The current presidential limousine entered service on January 20, 2009. According to the manufacturer, General Motors, the 2009 presidential limousine, based on the Cadillac DTS, is the first not to carry a specific model name.^[1][2] The vehicle's outward appearance carries many current Cadillac styling themes, but does not resemble any particular production vehicle. The body itself seems to be a modification of the immediately previous DTS-badged Presidential limousines, but the vehicle's chassis and driveline are sourced from theChevrolet Kodiak commercial truck.^[2][3] Many body components are sourced from a variety of Cadillac vehicles; for example, the car usesCadillac Escalade headlights, side mirrors and door handles. The tail of the car seems to use the taillights and back up lights from theCadillac STS sedan.^[4] Although a price tag has not been announced, each limousine is assumed to cost US$300,000.
