There have been several phone-camera photos of a supposed Lamborghini Aventador police car, in Dubai Police colours, doing the rounds of the internet this week.
The city that boasts the world's tallest building is equipping its police with $400,000 Lamborghini sports cars that Dubai's deputy police chief says are in keeping with the Gulf capital's image.
They also go fast, since according to the website of Lamborghini, an affiliate of the Volkswagen Group (VOWG.DE), all the Italian company's cars reach 100 kph (60 mph) in well under six seconds.
"The aim is to reflect the reputation of the emirate and the high stature it achieved," Mazeina said.
"It will also help promote tourism and showcase the security role the Dubai police plays in safeguarding the city," he added.
The vehicles will be deployed at the downtown area near the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa tower, the Mohammed bin Rashid Boulevard as well as the cafe- and restaurant-lined walk of the Jumeirah Beach Residence, one of the most popular waterfront developments in Dubai.
