The Northern Territory Road Policing Command is the third Australian police jurisdiction to employ the Kia Stinger on the front-line of its law enforcement fleet.
Following in the tread marks of the Queensland and Western Australian police forces, the Northern Territory will deploy seven V6 Stingers as the ageing Holden Commodore SS fleet is phased out.
Commander Matt Hollamby, from the Road Policing Command, said the Stinger was trialled in the NT and found to be a suitable replacement.
The new Stingers will arrive just in time for the Road Policing Command's Easter safety campaign which will focus on speed, alcohol, driver distraction and seat belt use with a special focus on rural roads.
