Emmanuel Macron's Bus Revolution: A Seat Costs 6 Million Euros.

Emmanuel Macron, the president of France, usually has a full bus when he travels. But recently, a seat became available for the first time this year.

Macron decided to ride the bus to his office, the Elysee Palace, to be more down-to-earth. The bus is actually very fancy and safe, with special features like strong armor and good air conditioning.

The bus follows a specific route and has security guards along the way to protect the president. Only people with special passes are allowed on the bus, like government officials and important people.

One of the special passes, which belonged to the US ambassador, was recently sold at an auction. This pass lets the owner and a friend ride the bus with the president until March 15th.

The starting price for the pass was 1 million euros, which is a lot of money. But after people got really excited about buying it, the final price went up to 6 million euros!
