Lamborghini Polizia - it's sure to win.
October 29th 2008 01:00
Police version of the company's newest super sports car, Gallardo LP560-4 Polizia
560 horsepower engine that can reach speeds of up to 203 mph.
It allows control of hazardous behaviour on the roads (high speeds, driving in the emergency lane, dangerous over-taking); the automatic recognition of number plate tracking and real-time transmission of images to the control rooms.
It uses radio data transmission, the video system in the Gallardo Polizia transfers its images in real time to the relevant police station. There, the videos are stored and used for automatic number plate retrieval. This information can be used for immediate identification of stolen vehicles.
The 30 police officers permitted to drive the Gallardo Polizia receive special training in the use of the Gallardo's medical equipment. Each person on the special operations team – which includes three women – has undertaken several days of driver training with Lamborghini, under the leadership of the Lamborghini test drivers.
The police beacon on the roof of the Gallardo had to be aerodynamically optimised being that the new police car reaches a considerably higher top speed than regular service vehicles. Despite the extremely flat construction of the signal lighting, blue LEDs are fitted round the base to ensure the visual signal cannot be missed. The roof-mounted lighting is supported by further blue LED signals on the front, sides and rear of the light's aluminium shell. A total of four sirens integrated into the front and rear of the Gallardo generate unmistakable audible warning signals.
