Vatican's Electric Popemobile to Debut in 2025
Mercedes-Benz has unveiled the first fully electric 'Popemobile' for Pope Francis, emphasizing the Vatican's commitment to environmental sustainability and the Pope's advocacy for climate action. This custom-built G-Class SUV features an elevated, rotating seat for the Pope, retractable roof, and accommodations for the Swiss Guards, designed for low-speed public appearances. Mercedes-Benz CEO Ola Källenius presented the vehicle, highlighting its symbol as a call for electromobility and decarbonization. This transition aligns with Pope Francis's environmental initiatives, including his 2015 encyclical 'Laudato Si', urging global action against climate change. The new Popemobile, painted in traditional papal white with a red floor, is set to debut at the 2025 Jubilee, marking a significant shift towards a net-carbon-neutral fleet by 2039.
