Pope Leo XIV has been given two electric vehicles that can be transported by air and will accompany him on his international travels.
Ongoing border restrictions have prevented Pope Francis’ former popemobile, which was refurbished with essential medical equipment, from reaching its destination.
From a portable throne carried on the shoulders of attendants to state-of-the-art electric cars, the pope’s means of transportation have evolved considerably over the years.
Before his death, Pope Francis donated one of his popemobiles to be converted into a mobile clinic to assist children in Gaza, one of the communities hardest hit by the war and humanitarian crisis in the Middle East.
