Dubai Police Adds Ultra-Rare Ferrari Purosangue Mansory to Luxury Patrol Fleet
The Dubai Police expands its luxury patrol fleet with a limited-edition Ferrari Purosangue Mansory, featuring a 755 bhp V12 with carbon fibre bodywork.
Marking 12 years of its luxury patrol fleet, the Dubai Police have added yet another ultra-exclusive model to its portfolio, and this time it is an extremely rare and modified Ferrari Purosangue Mansory edition. The high-performance luxury SUV was unveiled in front of the Emirates Towers at a special event organised by the Tourist Police Department. This is one of seven vehicles customised by the world-famous German tuning house Mansory.
The Ferrari Purosangue Mansory is powered by a 6.5 litre V12 engine that delivers 755 bhp and 730 Nm of peak torque. This enables the SUV to shoot to 100 kmph from a standstill in just 3.1 seconds, before topping out at 320 kmph.
With the Mansory upgrades, the Purosangue puts on a full carbon fibre body kit that includes a sport front bumper with massive air intakes and carbon fibre wheel arch cladding with fender vents. The SUV rides on forged FC.5 wheels and even puts on a wing at the rear alongside a special exhaust system. Stepping inside reveals a cabin upholstered in premium leather with carbon fibre detailing. The driver is treated to a Mansory steering wheel with sport pedals and custom seat belts.

Dubai Police’s iconic luxury fleet:
Strict law enforcement aside, the Dubai Police is perhaps best known for its second identity of being a high-profile luxury car collector and commands a vast patrol fleet of exotic supercars worth their weight in gold. Playing catch with criminals, however, is not the actual reason behind all of this, as the fleet largely serves as a tourist attraction on wheels.
Authorities have stated that the fleet’s purpose is not to tackle grand theft auto but to primarily patrol tourist spots around Dubai, including the Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa. The fleet also brings a ton of good PR at automotive expos held in the city, such as the Dubai International Motor Show.

Luxury cars owned by the Dubai Police include the likes of a Lamborghini Aventador, a McLaren Artura, an Audi RS e-Tron GT, and even a Tesla Cybertruck, among many more. The Aventador marked the beginning of the luxury fleet when it was introduced in 2013 with the sole purpose of turning heads. The RS e-Tron GT was the fleet’s first electric sports car and wears the number ‘28’ to signify the 2023 UN Climate Change Conference (COP 28) held in the city. Among its latest additions was a Tesla Cybertruck, which was introduced in 2024.
