CWN Editor's Note: Pope Francis has received a new all-electric “popemobile,” courtesy of Mercedes-Benz.
The German firm, which has been supplying vehicles for the Roman Pontiff since 1930, delivered the custom-made vehicle on December 4. The new popemobile—which will replace a gas-powered Mercedes—features a retractable canopy, a rotating seat, and all-wheel drive.
