In a gesture of solidarity, the NYPD unveiled a spiffy rainbow SUV cruiser.

Dubbing it the "Pride Ride," the NYPD and Gay Officers Action League rolled out a rainbowed-up SUV for NYC Pride this weekend, upping the patrol game for cops everywhere.

The display of LGBT support is to honor the families and victims of the mass shooting in Orlando.

The patrol SUV was accessorized with lights, rainbow decals and NYPD logos in rainbow colors, with the hashtag #nypdoutandproud.

The department's normal slogan, "Courtesy, Professionalism, Respect," was replaced here with decals saying "Pride, Equality, Peace," and another sticker on the rear window reads "Our <3 goes out to Orlando."

The cruiser is expected to make an appearance at this Sunday's Pride March, which city officials believe to be one of the biggest parades ever organized in Manhattan.
