What Happened

FIAT has entered a partnership with the Governorate of the Vatican City State to supply a dedicated fleet of 30 fully electric vehicles, including Topolino microcars and TRIS three-wheelers. The vehicles will be used by employees of the Governorate for daily internal operations, aiming to reduce the carbon footprint within the city-state. This initiative aligns with the Governorate's 'Ecological Conversion 2030' program, which targets a zero-emissions fleet by the end of the decade.

Delivered to support internal operations and activities of the Governorate

The first 20 vehicles were handed over at the Governorate headquarters in a ceremony attended by Archbishop Emilio Nappa and Secretaries General Giuseppe Puglisi-Alibrandi, along with FIAT CEO Olivier Francois. This event preceded a broader gathering in Rome where FIAT presented its vision for the future of compact urban mobility.

Why this matters

This partnership demonstrates how automakers can electrify fleets in historic urban environments, reducing emissions and setting a precedent for other institutions. It highlights FIAT's commitment to compact electric vehicles, which could accelerate the adoption of sustainable mobility in city-states and municipalities.
