An estimate of Visual Capitalism estimated the most expensive presidential cars in the world.
Biden and AMLO will hold a meeting in Mexico that will define the geopolitics of North America.
Get out of AIFA It has been the cause of controversy, due to the prohibitions on Uber and the lack of infrastructure in fast and quality public transport that achieves this mission.
The president of United States, Joe Bidenarrived at AIFA, as part of the visit he will make to Mexico, on the occasion of the North American Leaders Summit. Upon his arrival in Mexico, he was received by President Andrés Manuel López Obrador and the two left aboard the beast but how much would it have cost to leave AIFA if the famous presidential vehicle was cab?
the beast is valued for Visual Capitalism as the most expensive presidential car in the world, with a price of one million 500 thousand dollars, followed by the Hongqi L5, with a price of 800 thousand dollars; the Rolls Royce Phantom IV, priced at $750,000; and Pope Francis’ Renault 4, priced at $3,500.
If the beast were a taxi
President Joe Biden arrived at Felipe Ángeles Airport (AIFA) and the transfer from this air terminal to Presidente Intercontinental (located in Polanco, Mexico City), where he is staying during his visit to the country, has an estimated cost of 850 pesos by taxi sedan operated by Taxal, the only passenger transport service with permission to operate in that destination.
The above was calculated based on a rate that the company offers on the site https://adandyou.mx/taxal/ through the reservations section, where you have to enter the origin and destination.
For the AIFA, Taxal does not estimate trips in van-type vehicles and justifies the absence with the legend “There are no vehicles for this City!”.
If the Beast were a taxi, it would have been difficult for Biden and AMLO, because in addition to being a small vehicle, the driver of the unit would have listened to the diplomatic talk between the two leaders.
The leaders would not have enjoyed the vehicle’s own ventilation system, armor that even prevents the impact of a Stinger missile, as well as all the comforts that the Cadillac One has.
Leave AIFA without the beast
Leaving the AIFA has become an exercise widely criticized by many and recognized by others, who pay a taxi or go with their own vehicle. Those who only have public transport to get to or leave the terminal, is an ordeal.
First of all, not all Uber cars accept transfers to AIFA. In a consultation on the night of this January 8, the cost of transferring a passenger from the east of Mexico City to AIFA is 289 pesos, however, the waiting time for a vehicle to accept the trip went from six at eight minutes and finally at 15 minutes.
In case of moving by Metro, you have to arrive at the Indios Verdes metro to then board a combi, only if you agree to transfer the passenger with their suitcase, depending on the size of these or these. Later, you arrive at a Mexibus station, which is the only public route that can access AIFA.
For those who must leave AIFA by public transport, they must go to a Mexibus Line 1 station and make transfers, which are charged at more than 10 pesos, to the line that leads to the Indios Verdes metro.
