A New Jersey police department is making headlines for an innovative approach to community outreach that combines high-octane excitement with a life-saving message. The Garfield Police Department in Bergen County has teamed up with Lamborghini Paramus to unveil “Outrun Opioids,” a community initiative that uses a 2023 Lamborghini Huracán Sterrato to raise awareness of opioid addiction and recovery resources.
Instead of chasing suspects, this supercar’s mission is to chase conversations by helping residents better understand the pathways to treatment and recovery in their own community.
Dressed in official Garfield Police graphics and topped with a blue light bar, the off-road-capable Huracán Sterrato is designed to command attention wherever it goes. That visibility is no accident. With its 602-horsepower engine, off-road capability, and unmistakable silhouette, the vehicle has quickly become a centerpiece for discussions around substance use and stigma. The car made its debut at the 37th Annual PBA Toy Drive in Closter, where it attracted crowds eager to learn about its unexpected purpose. Police officials say the Lamborghini is not a symbol of enforcement but of empathy, a striking reminder that help is available and recovery is possible.
