Vehicle: Vegas G20 - 4x4
The Norwegian Police don't use this type of vehicle, but it looks cool none the less.
The sedan is the most used body style for both uniformed and unmarked police vehicles in Norway. While they use station wagon version most, there are also the standard sedan body style. The most common ones the last years have been various specially modified VW Passat, Audi, Mercedes and BMW models.

Vehicle: Beredskapstroppen Delta: Norwegian Anti-Terror Unit
Created in 1975, and put into active duty in 1976, Delta is the most
skilled and best trained law enforcement in Norway. Beredskapstroppen is
called in to high risk arrests, hunting after fugitives and other
special missions.
Beredskapstroppen are trained in a variety of specialized areas. Whether it is as police tactics, counterterrorism, shooting, emergency medicine, escort and driver training.
While their existence is often obfuscated, they have received more publicity the later years, especially after the NOKAS robbery and their assault on Utøya 22nd of July.
Delta is stationed in Oslo, and travels to other districts to assist the local police when required. Delta is often used to combat criminal gangs to seize weapons and drugs. While they are armed with a wide range of weapons, they very rarely use them in action.

Vehicle: New Norwegian Police Design
In the past 24 years, the uniformed police cars have been the same: White with red and blue markings.
The problem with the old colors are that the decals hardly have been visible in the dark.
The new Police style will increase the vehicle's visibility in traffic.
The new uniform will keep the white as background color. Black is also built in as a portion of the decals. But most attention will however be the fluorescent effect in the yellow. With large areas, these contribute to increased visibility both in daylight and at night.
The old uniforms are being phased out continuously as older vehicles are replaced by new vehicles
