He may lead the smallest state in the world, but his car commands global attention. Since the 1930s, popes have traveled in machines offered by the world’s top automakers—each model custom-built to project power, humility, and now, protection.
From the sleek Mercedes G-Class to a modest Peugeot pickup, the evolution of the Popemobile reflects shifting priorities: visibility, symbolism, and above all, security. After a near-fatal attack in 1981, bulletproof glass became a fixture. Yet despite global threats, the Vatican insists on vehicles that remain open enough to connect with the faithful.
A unique blend of engineering and diplomacy, where every curve and bolt carries meaning.
