The idea of the Tesla Model Y as a striking police car seems to be rapidly catching on around the world, according to the latest report that the Police Model Y of the St. Gallen Police Department in Switzerland has arrived, and the St. Gallen Police Department also shared a picture of one of their Model Y police cars, with the iconic white and orange color scheme and custom police lights on it. According to the police department, they purchased four Model Ys as part of their regular vehicle replacement program.
It is reported that the model Y is priced at 65,000 Swiss francs (about 440,000 yuan), plus the additional cost of police equipment is 15,000 Swiss francs (about 100,000 yuan), and the total price of a single ModelY police car is 80,000 Swiss francs (about 540,000 yuan), but just like the police department that uses electric vehicles, they also hope to achieve a lower fuel and maintenance cost to achieve a cost-saving effect than traditional fuel vehicles (2019, The department had purchased 13 Hyundai Kona electric vehicles, and now it seems that the use of electric vehicles should be good).
The purchase is also part of their commitment to a vehicle strategy that aims to "contribute to the environment by using environmentally friendly and future-oriented vehicles", and as electric vehicles gradually increase, so does their use as a special vehicle, as the first step in the gradual replacement of fuel vehicles by electric vehicles, and perhaps more and more brands will designate special electric vehicles to meet the needs of police cars
