The Polizia di Stato, Italy's national police force, is set to enhance its fleet with the 2023 Lamborghini Urus Performante, commencing its duty in 2024. This isn't Lamborghini's first foray into police vehicles; the Huracan LP610-4 has donned a "Polizia" livery since 2017. Lamborghini's partnership with the Italian State Police dates back to 2004, with the Urus Performante becoming the sixth Lamborghini to join the Italian Highway Police. The upcoming deployment in 2024 marks the 20th anniversary of this collaboration.
This is the sixth vehicle from Lamborghini to join the Italian police fleet.
Lamborghini's technicians in Sant'Agata Bolognese precisely tailored the Urus Performante for police use, adhering to specified requirements. The exterior underwent customisation following police specifications, featuring a design by Lamborghini Centro Stile, blending the classic blue of the Italian State Police with white and tricolour bands on the sills and seat belt. Reflective film-adorned police logos grace the doors, while a roof-mounted light bar with 360° blue LED lights and a two-tone electric siren have been installed.
