The petrol/electric hybrid car has mouthwatering performance. The power output is 231 bhp plus 96 Kw giving a total of 357 bhp, and a massive 570 Nm of torque. A 0-60 mph acceleration time of 4.4 seconds is the result. The automatic gearbox keeps the car accelerating up to its 155 mph limit. The fuel efficiency is distorted by the hybrid system, but the official figures are 135 miles per gallon and 49 g/km of CO2.

GX64 AZR North Yorkshire Police Vauxhall Corsa rural crime car. It carries yellow and white checker markings and badges of ‘Community Engagement Forums’ and ‘Rural Watch’.

This car is manned by police support volunteers to patrol rural areas and report upon suspicious activities as well as reassure locals. Residents play an important role as the police’s eyes and ears in isolated rural areas. Locals know their area better than anyone and know if something is out of place.

The volunteers are trained to be expert witnesses, but can also use the in-car police radio to summon a police officer if they come across something serious.

The black Corsa was introduced in December 2014 and was paid for through a partnership arrangement.
