A '''State Limousine''' (or '''official state car''') is a car used to transport heads of state. It is usually a [[limousine]] or an [[executive car]]. Official state cars are often those of domestic manufacturers, giving leaders an opportunity to demonstrate faith in their nation's products and therefore domestic manufacturing. For example, the President of the United States rides in the domestic [[Cadillac]], the Emperor of Japan uses a [[Lexus]], the British monarch uses a [[Bentley]] and the Prime Minister of Italy uses a [[Maserati]].
