DUBAI: Dubai Police recently announced the addition of the new Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S to its fleet of luxury patrol cars. Major General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police, said that Dubai Police Force has always sought, through the introduction of its supercars fleet, to enhance security presence in tourist destinations, such as the Burj Khalifa, Shaikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Boulevard, Jumeirah Beach Residence and La Mer, while upgrading the police’s systems at the same time. Al Marri was briefed about the car features which is powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 making 639 horsepower and a maximum torque of 900 Nm. The throbbing energy is routed through a nine-speed automatic and the AMG-tuned 4Matic all-wheel-drive system. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds, and claims a top speed of 315 km/h.
