ABU DHABI POLICE ARE ALREADY LIVING IN 2050Abu Dhabi Police just unveiled their latest patrol vehicle at Gitex Global 2024, and it looks like something straight out of the future: the Magnum MK1, an autonomous, armored, drone-equipped 4x4.
This cutting-edge vehicle is primarily electric but also has hybrid petrol support. It can reach speeds up to 150 km/h, accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 5.4 seconds, and is bulletproof against ammunition up to 7.62 mm. It carries three officers and securely transports one detainee in a specially designed internal cell.
Among its most advanced features are integrated systems for audio, video, and vital-sign monitoring, autonomous off-road navigation, radio and cellular communication capabilities, surveillance drones, infrared cameras providing 360-degree vision, specialized lighting, advanced geolocation, anti-jamming protection, and even an internal workstation with a panoramic screen to manage operations directly from the vehicle.
This futuristic patrol car will be fully manufactured in Abu Dhabi and is expected to hit the roads officially by 2028—a real leap into the future for Emirati law enforcement.
