Pope Francis Gets First Electric 'Popemobile’ - Vatican

Pope Francis gets a new open-top popemobile on December 4, 2024 at the Vatican. It is an all-electric Mercedes-Benz that the pope will use when he greets pilgrims in St. Peter's Square. The vehicle, a modified version of the German company's G-Class mid-size luxury SUV, has an elevated seat for Francis, so crowds have a better chance of seeing the pope. It comes in white, the traditional papal colour, and features heating in the papal seat and in a grab bar the pope can use for balance when standing in the vehicle.
