Heads of State, if they are traveling in a parade, typically do so in some form of bubbletop vehicle so they can pretend to be one of the people.

About the last time this term was in popular use was for the Lincoln JFK used in Dallas with said top removed.

The Popemobile has a type of bubbletop as well.
