# Futuristic Patrol Vehicles The Volkswagen Interceptor is Compact Yet Speedy on the Road By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2017-08-08 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-interceptor References: [yankodesign](http://www.yankodesign.com/2017/08/07/the-approachable-police-car/) Patrol vehicles today are somewhat static in design and are usually made with existing vehicle designs, so the Volkswagen Interceptor looks to change this in order to upgrade law enforcement capabilities. The vehicle boasts a speedy design that will offer enhanced agility on freeways, while the small size of the car ensures that maneuverability is a top priority when navigating through city streets. The inside cabin of the vehicle offers 360-degree visibility through the glass cockpit and boasts a number of tech accents that make it a powerful piece of equipment for law enforcement to utilize in urban spaces. The Volkswagen Interceptor is the design work of Fábio Martins and identifies a number of competitive features that we could see in future vehicles. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.9/10 - Popularity: 44% | Activity: 6% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Futuristic Patrol Vehicles:** Innovative designs for patrol vehicles that prioritize speed and maneuverability. - **Enhanced Agility:** Improving the agility of patrol vehicles on freeways for better law enforcement capabilities. - **Tech-enhanced Interiors:** Using advanced technology features to create powerful and efficient law enforcement vehicles. ### Who This Affects Most - **Law Enforcement:** Integrating innovative vehicle designs and technologies into law enforcement fleets. - **Automotive:** Developing new vehicle concepts and technologies for patrol vehicles. - **Urban Transport:** Creating small-sized, agile vehicles tailored for navigating city streets. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Shapeshifting Interior Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-gentravel-concept.md) - [Sculptural Spatial City Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-numa-concept.md) - [Road-Ready Dune Buggy Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fordzilla-hypervan.md) - [Sporty All-Electric Concept Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-idx-performance.md) - [Transforming Commuter Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-vista-roadster.md) - [Dystopian Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upfit-cyberpunk-tactile.md) - [All-Electric Sleek Fastback Sedans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/id7.md) - [Luminated Transparent Custom Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volkswagen-id-3-ev.md) - [Future Urban Mobility Cars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/numa-concept.md)
