Fisker intends to make first all-electric Popemobile

Fisker founder Henrik Fisker reportedly presented his vision of tailpipe-emissions-free transport to Pope Francis in a private meeting on Thursday, during a visit to Vatican City. And it’s one based on Fisker’s upcoming Ocean electric SUV.

“I got inspired reading that Pope Francis is very considerate about the environment and the impact of climate change for future generations,” Fisker said in a Friday morning release. 

The Fisker Popemobile will have the expected all-glass cupola, allowing Pope Francis to greet the faithful. The interior will also follow some details from the upcoming Ocean electric SUV, including carpets made from recycled plastic bottles. Fisker continues to claim that the Ocean will be the most sustainable vehicle in the world

The Ocean is due to be produced by Magna, in Austria. The vehicle for the Pope, if produced, will be the first all-electric papal transport.
