The Richmond Police Department unveiled new vehicles and a new color scheme for its fleet yesterday in Libby Park. New Ford Interceptor vehicles will replace the current Crown Victoria models, as the Interceptors are considered the new industry standard in police cruisers with added safety features, improved gas mileage, and cleaner emissions.

The RPD also debuted a new black-and-white color scheme for its vehicles, replacing the current white-with-blue accents design. The RPD will rollout 21 new cruisers in the coming weeks.

Check out the new wheels and colors:
