Discover The Luxury Police Cars Of Abu Dhabi: A Look Into The Unique Fleet

Most of us never want to take a ride in a police car, but it might not be quite so bad if you get brought down to the station in Abu Dhabi. Police cars are not often thought of as luxury vehicles, but the Abu Dhabi Police department boasts one of the most impressive luxury car collections worldwide. Unlike most car collectors, who might park their cars to keep them safe, these extraordinary supercars are actively patrolling the roads, ensuring safety in the capital city of the United Arab Emirates.

The Abu Dhabi Police have recently added the world's third most expensive car to their fleet, the $3.4 million Lykan HyperSport. This super luxury automobile is manufactured by W Motors and is one of only seven ever planned for production. It features a powerful 3.8-liter, flat-six Porsche engine that produces 770 horsepower, with options for either a six-speed sequential gearbox or a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. This police car can reach an astonishing top speed of 240 miles per hour, sprinting from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds. Notably, the Lykan HyperSport was showcased in the blockbuster movie Furious 7, complete with diamonds embedded in its headlights!

The HyperSport is far from the only supercar in the Abu Dhabi Police lineup. The fleet also includes a stunning $1.8 million Aston Martin One-77, a $550,000 Ferrari FF, and two $200,000 vehicles: a Mercedes SLS-AMG and a Bentley Continental GT. Additionally, they have a Rolls-Royce Phantom, a Bugatti Veyron, an Audi R8, a Nissan GT-R, a McLaren MP4-12C, a BMW i8, a Mercedes G63 AMG, a BMW M6 GranCoupe, a Lexus RC F, a Lamborghini Gallardo, a Renault Twizy, and a Chevy Camaro SS!

With such an impressive fleet of luxury cars, outrunning the law in Abu Dhabi seems nearly impossible! An Abu Dhabi Police Lieutenant claims, "We have never exceeded the speed limit on the highway." This raises questions about the necessity of such extravagant vehicles. If a police department in the United States were to invest in such high-end cars, it’s likely that the public would express outrage over the spending. So, what do you think? Is it necessary or ridiculous for a police department to maintain a fleet of luxury cars?
