Scout RIDE, the Newest Vehicle Technology for Law Enforcement

CHICAGO, Mar. 24, 2010 -- GLOBAL MOTOR SERVICES, announces the Scout RIDE, the newest vehicle technology engineered for law enforcement and security applications. On three wheels and 100% battery powered, the RIDE allows an officer the ability to focus on the task at hand without having to worry about balance or vehicle stability. With a unique front and independent rear suspension system in place, body fatigue is dramatically reduced. The RIDE's innovative design and environmentally conscious specifications make it the most sought after vehicle for law enforcement.

Manufactured by Advanced Power Technologies (APT), this state of the art electric scooter will be showcased at the International Security Conference & Expo West, held at the Sands Expo & Convention Center, Las Vegas, March 24-26 and the Government Security Expo & Conference, held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, DC, March 23-24.

The ideal solution for security personnel, the Scout RIDE is a 100% electric, zero-emission, battery powered, three-wheeled scooter. With front and independent rear suspension, high-intensity flashing LED's, and multiple sirens; the Scout RIDE provides an officer with a commanding presence and the ability to dominate any tactical situation. Captain Mike Grandinetti explained, "The RIDE was unanimously approved 5-0 and will be used for our special events as it significantly enhances our community policing efforts."

With a width of only 31.5 inches, the Scout RIDE can be driven in the same areas an officer patrols and can be easily driven through standard doorways. The unique suspension allows an officer to navigate through a variety of terrain with minimal effort and its zero-degree turning radius highlights the RIDE's unmatched maneuverability.

Easily charged in a standard 110v household outlet, the Scout RIDE has a range of 15-20 miles with the standard lead-acid battery and 35-40 miles with the optional lithium-ion battery. The Scout RIDE can reach the speed of 15 mph, but with an optional upgrade can reach speeds of up to 25 mph. The Scout RIDE is easy to operate, extremely durable, and can fold down for transport in any SUV.
