The Ghiath Smart Patrol was created in a collaborative effort between W Motors -- known for manufacturing the Lykan Hypersport -- and the Dubai police. The vehicles have already been pushed into the manufacturing stage to have a fleet of cars on the road in the next few years, joining the ten units already hard at work in Dubai.
The glamorous city is now more protected than ever with its upcoming fleet of drone-equipped SUVs. The Ghiath is described as one of the most "advanced security vehicles in the world." It features a roof-mounted surveillance camera and a deployable drone for difficult situations. The vehicle is complete with plush leather-trimmed seats and a large central touchscreen.
