Long before Hitler's rise to power, Daimler-Benz worked on the development of a heavy off-road sedan for the Reichswehr (German military). In 1934, a three-axle car was created, called the "Type G4". Because it was too heavy and too costly for the Reichswehr, the car would probably have faded into history if not for Hitler and other important figures of the time.

Pope John Paul II was riding in a Fiat Campagnola when an attempt was made on his life in 1981 by Mehmet Ali Agca, a Turkish gunman who may have been working for the Eastern Bloc. Today, the "Popemobile" has replaced the sedia gestatoria, which has the same purpose as the Fiat: to make the Pope visible to all the pilgrims during his entry and exit from events but offer the Pontiff better protection.
