When transporting the president in a motorcade, the Secret Service uses a fleet of custom-built armored [[Cadillac]] Limousines, the newest and largest version of which is known as "[[Presidential state car (United States)#Current model|The Beast]]". Armored [[Chevrolet Suburban]]s are also used when logistics require such a vehicle or when a more low-profile appearance is required. For official movement, the limousine is affixed with U.S. and presidential flags and the presidential seal on the rear doors. For unofficial events, the vehicles are left sterile and unadorned.<ref name="Kessler" />

Government audits have criticized the Secret Service for a "slow embrace of technology", according to ''[[The New York Times]]''.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Lipton |first1=Eric |last2=Fahrenthold |first2=David A. |title=Secret Service's Tech Flaws Helped Gunman Evade Detection at Trump Rally |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2024/08/01/us/politics/secret-service-technology-trump.html |access-date=1 August 2024 |work=The New York Times |date=1 August 2024|url-access=limited}}</ref>
