Forget that many of the details are fuzzy—this thing is apparently happening.
If we told you that a massive technology firm revealed plans to mass-produce a utilitarian police vehicle with a stainless steel body, you might think we were describing the plot of aspinoff. Sometimes truth is stranger than fiction, because Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison recently revealed plans to createIt might seem strange that a technology company like Oracle is getting in the business of producing police cars, but the firm has actually worked with law enforcement for a while now.
Ellison says the Cybertruck police vehicle won't require such modifications."We use their [Tesla's] existing cameras and existing screen," said Ellison. Oracle would just simply install its proprietary software and the Cybertruck's hardware would do the rest. Ellison claims we won't have to wait long before its dystopian inspired law enforcement transport will start arriving at police departments.
"Our next-generation police car is coming out very soon. It's my favorite police car; it's my favorite car actually. It's Elon Musk's favorite car. It's incredible. I know too much about it, some of it is still to be disclosed," said Ellison during Oracle's CloudWorld 2023 keynote via. It should be clear that as of now, this is only a concept, and there was no mention of a working prototype.
The rendering shown here doesn't reveal any heavy modifications to the Cybertruck other than adding external police lights and a massive ram-style bumper. There's also the massive Oracle logo on the side of the Cybertruck, which presumably would be replaced by local departments' liveries.
