Popemobile

The popemobile is a specially designed motor vehicle used by the Pope during public appearances. The vehicle is a successor to the sedia gestatoria and was designed to allow the Pope to be more visible when greeting large crowds. The popemobile has been used in various designs, including open-air and enclosed models with bulletproof glass, and has been provided by manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz. The Vatican's popemobiles are registered with the "SCV" prefix, followed by the vehicle fleet number, and have been used by numerous popes since the vehicle's introduction.learn more on wikipedia
