First guy: DAMN this is FAST
Second guy: is my trunk open?
Third guy: I hope I don't break this car

Got so excited about the new fleet they could care less about the trunk

[BasinStudiosRoblox]

must be hella urgent if bro left the trunk open

It’s so weird not hearing an engine roar as they take off lol.

Nothing can replace a Dodge Charger cop car to me.

I was hoping someone would try to catch some of these soon! Awesome catch!!

[Rummeltobi]

Awesome catch! Interesting to see a complete Tesla patrol fleet. Good looking units, I like the Whelen setup on these and that they got Core control systems

Like the car. I got a new Durango V8 for duty. I can’t say anything bad about the Tesla but I can assure you that I enjoy driving that Durango every single day. Make job a little bit better…

To think all three were responding to a Prius that was over the posted residential speed limit by 4 MPH, is why I loved South Pasadena when I lived there.

No car car will ever last as long as the Crown Victoria! The P71/P7B still patrolling and kicking ass all over the US since the late 90s. The ole faithful P71/P7B will forever be the 🐐 of Cop cars.

Whoever drives the fusion is a lucky officer

[AnthonyGEmergencyVideos]

Awesome catches! I think your the first to catch a tesla responding in the US.

Legend has it after they left the parking lot the car was down to 60 percent charge

[DrRobotnikPingas]

The best cop cars are the Ford Voctoria Crown and the Chevrolet Caprice.

Oops there goes the trunk! For sure I’d submit this to Wham Baam Teslacam!

My uncle was proudly a police officer with South Pasadena during World War II. He was a good, fair and smart man. Proud of his past service as a peace officer.

[eddiecoger]

if a police dept can afford cars like that they can afford research into better NON LETHAL weapons and tactics to take ppl down smh

I hope the high battery life isn't a problem, as the acceleration it does could shorten the battery life a little more quickly than expected.

[Taconephotography]

The comments about the “battery dying mid response” are ignorant and incorrect. The same argument can be said for gas powered cars running out of gas. I’m no electric car enthusiast or supporter and I am not for the Tesla’s, but at least use a real argument 😂

[urielmendoza]

the first guy turned the wheel so aggressively 🤣
