Santa Cruz, California – Electric vehicle company Zero Motorcycles gas delivered a major order to the Burbank Police Department to add to the department's patrol fleet. Zero developed the Zero SP, Zero DSP, and Zero FXP models for law enforcement and security agencies. The Burbank Police Department selected the Zero DSP motorcycle for its stealth, versatility, low cost of operation, hassle-free maintenance, and minimal environmental impact.
"The integration of the dual purpose electric motorcycles will provide the Burbank Police Department with the ability to expand our existing enforcement efforts, which we believe will improve the level of service we provide to our community," said Lieutenant Jay Hawver of the Burbank Police Department Traffic Bureau. "We continuously look for opportunities to introduce new technology when practical and applicable. The addition of the new electric motorcycles will put the City of Burbank out in front of our partner law enforcement agencies as a pioneer in the implementation of this new and exciting technology."
The motorcycles will be used daily upon Burbank city streets and off-road areas.
"Zero Motorcycles designed and engineered the police motorcycles based upon direct feedback from patrol officers. We are honored to have the continued support of law enforcement and security agencies and are thrilled that the Burbank Police Department will be using Zero police motorcycles in their fleet," said Kevin Hartman, Zero Motorcycles fleet sales director.
Zero police patrol models are equipped with pursuit emergency lighting and sirens, safety components, and functional storage options to carry gear, patrol items, and emergency medical equipment.
In addition to the Burbank Police Department, Zero continues to work directly with more than 30 international, national, and local law enforcement, security and military agencies to expand their motorcycle fleets and integrate the use of Zero Motorcycles.
