Unveiled at the International Association of Chiefs of Police, the T3 Motion is a 25 mph police mobile that can cruise up to 75 miles on one charge. Over at GM they describe, "With a cost of US$6188 plus US$1800 for the long-range batteries, we see a huge market for these machines in everything from paper delivery to security – most significantly it rapidly improves response times because it is potentially so fast from point A to point B where cars can't go – shopping malls, in lifts, down corridors, pedestrian environments, beaches, parks, historical sites. And as far as personal mobility goes, it's reportedly very easy to drive and could enhance mobility for our aging population. It looks like a bunch of fun too."
