The LAPD has a Tesla P85D now

At a press conference today, Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti announced the lease of 160 battery electric vehicles and 128 plug-in hybrids for the city's vehicle fleet. "Today, we take another step toward becoming the most sustainable city in America," the mayor told reporters. "This year, Los Angeles will become home to the largest city-owned fleet of pure battery electric vehicles anywhere in the country, and we will save taxpayer dollars along the way."
Together with the new leases, the department also received two expensive loaner EVs: a BMW i3 and a Tesla Model S P85D, with 0-60 speeds of 7.0 and 3.2 seconds respectively. The police department was vague on what it would do with the cars, saying only: "These vehicles will be used for testing and research by LAPD technical experts to determine how this technology can support their future needs."

That thing is pretty. I would enjoy being pulled over and subsequently having the shite kicked out of me to see it.

It's no Ruston or Shreveport, that's for sure.

That cruiser has the right to remain... silent.

As long as criminals stick to gas engines. They won't have to outrun, just outlast.
