# A Mexican state plagued by drug-related violence has launched a fleet of Tesla Cybertrucks to patrol the streets. The western state of Jalisco is home to one of Mexico’s most powerful drug trafficking groups, the Jalisco New Generation Cartel, which was designated a terrorist organisation by US president Donald Trump. The futuristic, tortoise-shaped pickups are part of an investment to buy more than 690 new vehicles, including 200 motorbikes. Security is a top priority for Jalisco authorities ahead of the 2026 World Cup, when state capital Guadalajara will host four matches.
