"HOLDEN will continue its long-running partnership with SA Police – despite the wind-up of local manufacturing last year – with German-made cars rolling out as part of a new trial.
The ZB Commodore, with new fluoro markings, will be trialled alongside the Kia Sorrento, which was first used by police in January. Assistant Commissioner Peter Harvey said the new cars would be used across the state. “The intention of both vehicles is that they can be used in all areas of policing, including prisoner transport, road policing and general duties,” he said. Mr Harvey could not say how much the trial would cost, or how much more expensive the new cars were than the previous fleet. The six-cylinder cars will be on road for at least the next three months, and, while not guaranteed to be extended, Mr Harvey said they had performed well so far. “We’re more than confident it will meet all our benchmarks but that is the purpose of the trial – to see if it meets both technical and operational requirements,” he said." https://www.adelaidenow.com.au/news/...d5131e37fcfa5c
