In 2022, Avondale Estates, Georgia, began transitioning some of its police department’s gas-powered vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs). Chief Harry Hess had his reservations at first, but the EVs proved to be a worthy investment, resulting in monthly savings for the department.
Ford Pro has ushered in a new era of scheduled vehicle maintenance for Avondale Estates PD’s remaining gas-powered vehicles. When Hess first joined the department, he inherited vehicles that hadn’t followed a consistent vehicle maintenance schedule.
Not only has Avondale Estates begun transitioning to electric police vehicles, but it’s also adopted software to keep tabs on its fleet and help ensure vehicles are properly maintained.
