Sharjah: Sharjah Police have added 127 new fuel-efficient Toyota cars to its fleet in collaboration with Al Futtaim Motors to reinforce both organisations’ support for UAE Vision 2021’s sustainable environment initiatives.

Sharjah Police said that they are also test-driving Toyota’s zero-emission fuel cell technology in the form of the hydrogen fuel cell-powered Toyota Mirai.

A percentage of these vehicles will form part of the Anjad patrol and they will be equipped with hi-tech equipment.

Brigadier Saif Al Ziri Al Shamsi, Commander-in-Chief of Sharjah Police, said they are keen to support the cause of the environment by adding eco-friendly vehicles to their fleet.

“The introduction of environment-friendly vehicles to our patrol fleet is important as the force aims to adopt more sustainable energy sources, including renewable energy, as well as reducing carbon emissions,” Brig Al Shamsi said.

By using the hybrid vehicles, Sharjah Police aim to spread awareness of greener transport solutions, while aiding its efforts for more sustainable mobility options, he added.
