Herald-Standard Reports: Connellsville Police to Operate Electric Powered Cruiser

The Connellsville Police Department unveiled its new all-electric patrol car Tuesday in Connellsville. The refitted 2000 Chevrolet Impala was produced by Coherent Systems International. Ken Brooks/Herald-StandardThe Connellsville Police Department in Pennsylvania has just taken delivery of the very first electric motor driven police cruiser in the United States. The test car is a 2000 Chevy Impala police cruiser belonging to the department that volunteered for the risky procedure (okay, so it is not Robocop). Coherent Systems International Corp. performed the modifications to the cruiser at their own cost and just recently returned the cruiser to the Connellsville Police Department.
