LEGO City set 60479, Police Prisoner Transport Van, depicts a prisoner transport van with a motorcycle. Released in 2026 under the Police theme, it contains 198 pieces and presents an urban police scene built around clearly identified characters.

This model belongs to LEGO City Police, a theme focused on service vehicles, pursuits and public safety scenes in a city setting. Its main subject is a van used to transport a prisoner, supported by a motorcycle for additional action around the vehicle.

The build uses 198 pieces and is centered on a compact road vehicle. The French retail title also mentions a motorcycle and a removable cell door, giving the model clear play options for an arrest, transfer or escape attempt.
