Spotlight: Police Patrol Vehicles
What Patrol Vehicles Will Replace the Crown Vic?
With the retirement of the Crown Victoria, police departments are looking for alternative models for their patrol vehicles. This spotlight highlights the results of a case study comparing the performance of the Chevy Tahoe and the Chevy Impala as police vehicles.
The vehicles for this study where taken from a single benchmarking client to ensure similar driving conditions, labor rates, fuel prices and parts prices. This allows for an accurate comparison between the costs of both vehicles types. For the complete report, contact Utilimarc today.
