The newest acquisition of EL.AS. is a brand new VW ID.4.

After the recent additions of Nissan Navara & Qashqai, Hyundai i30, Peugeot 308, and Mazda 6 to the operational fleet of the force, the first electric patrol car was added.

There are many cities in Europe that use electric police and municipal vehicles in order to reduce pollution and increase fuel economy. At the moment it is unclear what police division the new eco-friendly vehicle will be assigned to.
