NEW: The first in-duty police Cybertruck has been unveiled by the Irvine Police Department in California.

🔥🔥🔥

The truck will be used for the department’s Drug Abuse Resistance Education program to engage with the community.

The department spent $XXXXXXX on the Cyberbeast which included aftermarket upgrades from Unplugged Performance.

The department says the truck is not much more expensive than gas patrol vehicles, and suggested they could actually save money with the Cybertruck in the long term.

"Gas-powered patrol vehicles cost about $116,000, Davies said, and they require thousands more in gasoline and maintenance over their lifetime, which is typically three to five years. Those costs are far less for a Cybertruck, which the IPD is expecting to last at least twice as long," KYLA X reported.
