He also praised the strong, ongoing partnership with Gargash Enterprises, underlining the importance of aligning with global leaders in automotive excellence to achieve strategic policing goals.
Thomas Schulz, General Manager of Mercedes-Benz Cars, expressed pride in the collaboration: “This partnership with Dubai Police underscores our joint commitment to sustainable, future-focused mobility. We are honoured to see our vehicles serve in such a vital public safety role.”
