The Home Office does not hold data on the number of electric emergency response vehicles.
Police forces are operationally independent, and procurement of police resources is an operational matter for Chief Constables and locally elected Police and Crime Commissioners.
Decisions on fire and rescue service resources are a matter for each fire and rescue authority.
