Electric Volkswagen police car is ready for service
Due to be unveiled at the General Police Equipment Exhibition and Conference (GPEC) in Liepzig this week, it’s the latest addition to the brand’s range of vehicles adapted for emergency services use and will go into service in the near future.
Upgrades include a new digital radio and the new SoSi siren system, equipping the car for use in all tactical situations, the manufacturer said. The drivetrain, which offers a range of up to 130 miles, is unmodified and the battery can be rapid charged to 80% of its capacity in less than half an hour.
