The vehicle will help the Gujarat Police for routine patrol duties in inaccessible terrain, coastal patrol, vigilance in rough terrain, rapid pursuit operations, maintaining vigil around sensitive and hi-security zones to name a few.
"ATVs are utilised by police forces across the globe. This is for the first time our ATVs will be used by Police in India. Our vehicles are sturdy, reliable and effective over the toughest of terrains. Polaris has demonstrated various ATVs to the Defence, Police and paramilitary forces, as these can be used in beach patrolling, inside dense forests, and on marshy, rocky and rough terrains. This is an opportunity for us to showcase the range of Polaris ATVs' and ORVs' unmatched ruggedness and versatility in harsh, hostile and demanding conditions. We at Polaris are proud to have the Gujarat Police Force introduce Polaris ATVs," said Pankaj Dubey, MD, Polaris India in a press release.
