And this is how it's playing out:
Bargersville started with its first Tesla police car in 2019. Since then, the town has added a dozen more Teslas to its fleet of police vehicles. The police chief noted that going for Teslas was evidently a risk in the beginning, but it has paid off. This was highlighted by the fact that the fuel savings for the Teslas were so notable that the town was able to pay for two more officers, as noted in a WRTV report.
Tesla police fleet is saving taxpayers $80k per year on fuel costs: report
A fleet of Tesla police cars are proving themselves superior to their combustion-powered counterparts at the town of Bargersville.
