Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series earns its police stripes.

Police fleets across Australia are also stuck in the queue for the new Toyota LandCruiser 300 Series. The first example in NSW has clocked-on for duty two years after the latest model went on sale.

A brand-new example has hit the road in NSW as part of a final trial by police fleet operators before being rolled out to regional areas across the state.

This Lamborghini Urus police car is made to transport organs.

It's the sixth Lamborghini received by the Italian police.

This Urus also has a special refrigerated compartment in the trunk to deliver organs to those in need of a transplant. In addition, the portable fridge can carry plasma.

The Urus Performante has gone through a series of modifications inside that includes an armored weapon box and a dedicated area for a defibrillator, along with a flip-down message display mounted above the dashboard. The Urus can rapidly travel to its destination courtesy of a twin-turbo V8 making a devilish 666 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque, which enables a 0-to-62 mph time of 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 190 mph/

Lamborghini has been collaborating with the Italian police for 20 years and this Urus will be used by the Highway Police from 2024

In 2023 the Czech police took delivery of more Škoda Kodiaq:

The special Kodiaq for the Czech police uses the engine and brakes from the RS version, so it has a two-litre four-cylinder petrol engine delivering 180 kW of power, DSG automatic transmission and all-wheel drive. The car’s chassis is raised, however, and the 18-inch wheels have conventional metal rims, which are more durable than alloy wheels. Needless to say, the interior is designed with practicality in mind, so you won’t find sports seats, but the car has an adaptive chassis and plenty of other useful features. But because of the eventuality of using the PIT manoeuvre, the police Kodiaq doesn’t have Front Assist that would prevent such manoeuvres. The Kodiaqs currently entering the service of the Czech Police are the most advanced police car Škoda has developed and delivered to date. In total, the Czech carmaker has delivered more than 23,000 cars to the Czech police since 1993

When the Police of the Czech Republic took delivery of the first 50 specially modified Škoda Kodiaqs, they organised a demonstration of the PIT manoeuvre, which stands for Precision Immobilisation Technique or Pursuit Intervention Technique. The Kodiaqs, which will be used by the traffic police and first-response units, are prepared for this manoeuvre not only by a special safety frame, but also by training their crews.

The PIT manoeuvre consists of a police car nudging the side of the pursued vehicle behind the rear wheel so that the car spins and comes to a stop. We were able to test how this works in the passenger seat of both the police car and the “bad guy’s” car.

The OG of police cruisers - the Ford Crown Victoria should also make this list! So popular that the Los Angeles Sheriff's boys & gals stockpiled 600 of them during their last production year in 2011.
