How To Get Into Any Vehicle in The Precinct

Your reliable patrol car will handle most situations in Averno City, but it’s tough to ignore the variety of vehicles driving around. While you are expected to use official cars, sometimes effective policing calls for something faster or flashier. In The Precinct, the right ride can make all the difference.

Here’s how you can enter any vehicle in The Precinct and use it as a police car to gain an edge in pursuits and navigate the city more quickly.

Get Into Any Vehicle in The Precinct

To get into any vehicle in The Precinct, you need to unlock the “Commandeer” skill. This allows you to walk towards any vehicle in the game with or without a driver and commandeer it.

• First, you need to acquire at least two upgrade points. This is done by leveling up at the end of your shift when you’ve clocked out and earned XP.
• You will acquire an upgrade point every time you reach a new level.
• Once you have two points, head over to the Upgrades tab and get the Reinforced Glass base skill required to unlock the Vehicle skill tree.
• After that, get the “Commandeer” skill by using another upgrade point.

Once you unlock the Commandeer skill, approach either of the front doors of any vehicle to gain access to it:

• If the vehicle is currently occupied, you will get the “Commandeer Vehicle” option. It’s a peaceful way to essentially steal a civilian vehicle for police business. Not exactly GTA.

• If a car is parked, you can smash its window and get into it that way. This approach will result in the car’s alarm going off, which, paired with the siren, can be super annoying.

Once you’re inside, Cordell places a police siren on the hood to mark it as a cop car. This allows you to activate the siren as usual. It’s a nice little touch that shows the care the developers put into most police activities.

There’s a solid variety of vehicles in The Precinct. I’ve spotted some great renditions of popular cars from the ’70s and ’80s, like the Pontiac Firebird, Chevrolet Impala, Ford Mustang, and the Dodge Challenger. Even the patrol car isn’t just some old clunker; it’s based on the iconic Chevrolet Caprice, a classic American police vehicle.
