Based on Hyundai Motor’s Santa Fe 2.4 gasoline model, the Santa Fe police car was specially modified to successfully carry out its duties. Aside from the basic features of a police car, such as bullet proof windows, light bars and searchlights, the car is also equipped with various smart features such as an in-vehicle laptop, fingerprint verification system and an advanced communication system, which enables real-time data exchange with the central control center.
