The city continuously evaluates battery powered vehicles and equipment to see if and when it is practicable to replace existing gasoline powered equipment. In 2023, Oakwood ordered a fully electric police car. Delivery of the Chevrolet Blazer EV Police Pursuit Vehicle (PPV) is expected in late 2024 or early 2025. When deployed, it will be the first all-electric fully outfitted police car in Montgomery County.
