Pope Francis, the characteristics of the model chosen for the Pontiff
Specifically, the model chosen for the Pope is the Skoda Eniaq iV. Both Electric SUVs made available to him are presented with transparent windows, which have replaced the tinted glass to allow the faithful to see the Pontiff on the occasions in which he is in Auto. In addition, ad hoc supports were installed to carry the flag of the Vatican State, while the official logo of the papal visit was placed on the exterior mirrors.
To be added, an additional handle to the standard equipment fitted to the model to facilitate getting in and out of the car.
But it doesn’t stop there. Skoda has devised an initiative for the occasion by creating a website dedicated to visiting the Papa in Slovakia, through which it is possible to upload greetings to the Pontiff, who will be able to see them comfortably inside the cockpit.
This is the second time that Pope Francis has used vehicles of the Czech brand, after his visit to Ireland in 2018, where Skoda made four Rapid Spacebacks available to him.
