China’s ‘Beast’ Hits KL Streets: Presidential Tank-Like Limo Leads To Major Road Closures

Kuala Lumpur was buzzing with excitement recently as China's presidential convoy made its way through the city, led by the colossal Hongqi N701 limousine — often nicknamed "The Beast" for its sheer size and tank-like design. The highly secure and ultra-luxurious state car, built specially for China's top leaders, turned heads and caused significant road closures in major parts of the city.

Designed to resemble a rolling fortress, the Hongqi N701 is equipped with heavy armor plating, bulletproof glass, advanced communications technology, and run-flat tires that allow the vehicle to keep moving even if damaged. Its imposing presence not only captivated curious onlookers but also led to heavy traffic as authorities implemented strict security measures, including roadblocks and diversions around key city areas.

While the sight of such an advanced and heavily fortified vehicle was rare, it also got many Malaysians thinking about their own rides. Whether you're caught in traffic behind a presidential convoy or simply commuting to work, the importance of having a reliable and comfortable car cannot be overstated. If your vehicle is starting to feel outdated or unreliable, now might be the perfect time to sell your car and upgrade to something newer.
