The world's fastest (and most expensive) police cars

Police cars have come a long way. With so many powerful vehicles on the road, it’s only natural that police around the world have had to adapt if they wanted to be able to compete with, and actually catch, suspects driving fast cars. A criminal with a supercar could easily get away when chased by your average police vehicle, but luckily, those days are long gone. Engaging in a car chase is always a dangerous and skillful activity, but now many police forces have vehicles in their fleets that allow them to perform better than ever. In addition to excellent driving skills, police need cars that are safe, powerful, and fast enough to engage in vehicular hot pursuits of suspects. Luckily, many countries have decided to invest to get the ideal cars for the job. From Lamborghinis to Ferraris, law enforcement agents now have a plethora of powerful vehicles at their disposal. Dubai, for instance, has enough supercars to leave many a car enthusiast in awe. In fact, they have some of the most expensive cop cars in the whole world! But many other countries also have powerful machines in their arsenal. The United States, for example, has several mean-looking muscle cars, whereas Italy has a number of classic supercars. Every country has one or more "special weapons" that can make a difference when it comes to high-speed car chases. But there’s more—a lot more. From classic sports cars, to all-wheel-drive interceptors, in this gallery you’ll find the fastest, most expensive, and most exclusive police cars from around the world.
