Key Points
- 18 new Ford Kuga SUVs delivered Wednesday, replacing 6-year-old fleet.
- Early deployment possible this month if approved.
- Leasing arrangement suits high annual mileage and wear.
- Return to latest Kuga model after previous renewal.
Andorra's police force will begin deploying its latest fleet of patrol vehicles in early 2026. The winning bidder in the tender to renew the fleet delivered 18 new Ford Kuga SUVs on Wednesday, replacing vehicles that had been in service for around six years.
The vehicles arrived in the country a few days ago, with the supplier completing the livery and customisation work ahead of schedule in recent days. Although delivery had been slated for the first weeks of January, the new cars could enter active duty as early as this month if police fleet managers deem them ready.
This marks a return to the Ford Kuga model, now in its most recent version, following the previous renewal six years ago. The vehicles are acquired through a leasing arrangement, suited to the force's demanding operations. Patrol cars rack up high mileage annually, spending nearly constant time on the roads and passing through multiple drivers' hands. Even with careful handling by officers, this intensive use accelerates wear and tear, justifying the leasing model for regular fleet rotation.
