South Africa’s police force in Cape Town will now be catching criminals with the help of Croatian technology…

Cape Town police in South Africa are the latest institution around the world who are using The Greyp G-12 electric bike developed by Croatian Mate Rimac.

“Surprisingly, South Africa is one of Greyp’s biggest markets. After many other institutions (military and police) around the world, now the Cape Town Police is using The Greyp G-12 to catch bad guys efficiently and having a lot of fun along the way,” Mate Rimac wrote on his Facebook page today.
