Celebrating more than 40 years in the business, Volvo special vehicle operations has peeled the drapes off its all-new Volvo V70 police car at the 2007 National Association of Police Fleet Managers exhibition.

Set to be a hit with traffic officers, the V70 has been heavily modified, boasting a longer load bay, more interior space, unique suspension, brakes, and most importantly, a payload 185kgs greater than the standard car, essential to deal with the heavier loads police forces need for armed response units.
