Starting from a humble background, Arnold Schwarzenegger drove his way to success. From pursuing a career people knew hardly about to joining the army, winning the prestigious Mr. Olympia title 7 times to dominating Hollywood, Arnie has come a long way. The journey was, however, not easy. Filled with ups and downs, the Terminator star had many hurdles.

However, despite all the setbacks, there was one constant in his life. And that was his love for cars. But he wasn’t just driven by the passion for collecting the four-wheelers! His love lay for the greater good, something that made him different from his contemporaries.

Arnold making a choice 

When Arnie secured the chair as the 38th governor of California, he vowed to ensure a green future. Reminiscing his initial days, The Governator said, “when I came over [to the U.S.] in 1968, I had tears in my eyes,” Here, he refers to Los Angeles’ notoriously smoggy days.

Thus, when Arnold got the chance to make key changes to his car for a green future, he did not back off. First of its kind, ‘Kreisel,’ the Australian company, replaced Arnold’s ‘Mercedes G-Wagen’ factory engine with an electric one. In the CNBC show “Jay Leno’s Garage,” Arnold brought his modified 2016 model G-Wagen to represent his vision of a cleaner and greener future.
