I have heard that using hybrids for emergency vehicles is problematic due to adding emergency lights and radio equipment causing problems with the electrical systems. Is this true?

Its interesting how we(US) view an emergency vehicle used for patrol needing to be large.

Majority of the civilized world uses smaller vehicles than a crown vic with great success.
