Czech Republic Gets 11 BMW i3 Police Cars

The police in the Czech Republic has just got a great update of their fleet – 11 brand new BMW i3 cars. The cars will be distributed to 8 cities, including Prague, and help the local police in their daily tasks.

Three cars will go to Prague and the rest of them to the other cities. This is sort of a trial run, as the program sponsored by BMW is trying to implement electric cars into police fleets. They have six months or 6,000 kilometers to return the cars if they show not to be a good choice.

However, other countries such as Germany, Italy, and Austria are already proving that the i3 is a perfect choice for a police vehicle.

BMW i Manager BMW Group Czech Republic, Jana Dvořáková, said: 

Our customers need a product that combines fresh, innovative design and efficient operation, performance, comfort and well-being for their lifestyle or the identity of the company they represent. In order to move closer to the target group in the private sector, we have prepared this project. We are convinced that many features of the BMW i3 are appreciated daily by members of the police and city police. This project could only be achieved thanks to the great support and close cooperation with all BMW dealers.
