In Kuala Lumpur on August 19, the Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) received 375 All Terrain Tactical Assault E-Bikes (ATEBs) valued at over RM8 million. Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Mohd Khalid Ismail announced that these electric tactical bikes will be deployed in border states, including Perlis, Kedah, Kelantan, Perak, Sabah, and Sarawak.
The ATEBs aim to bolster police capabilities, particularly for the General Operations Force (GOF), enabling them to conduct border patrols swiftly, quietly, and efficiently. Mohd Khalid emphasized that the bikes will aid in preventing leaks of petrol and other goods at the border, thereby ensuring government revenue remains at its highest level.
The event featured the Director of Bukit Aman Internal Security and Public Order Department, Datuk Seri Mohd Yusri Hassan Basri, and Mohamad Roslan Ramin, the Managing Director of RTG Intech Corporation Sdn Bhd, the supplier of the ATEBs. Mohd Khalid expressed gratitude to RTG for the partnership, hoping it would further enhance the force's operational capabilities.
The electric bikes can reach a top speed of 120km/h, deliver up to 850 Nm of torque, and offer an operating range of up to 120km. Equipped with smart chargers and 72-volt, 60-ampere-hour batteries, they are designed for demanding police operations. The ATEBs will make their first public appearance during the upcoming National Day parade.
