Boy, I would hate to have this 2016 Ford Police Interceptor utility vehicle tail me behind if I were to run afoul of the law. After all, this happens to be the most recent model of the U.S.’s ” top-selling law enforcement” car, where it has been revealed over at the Chicago Auto Show. The Ford Police Interceptor is a definite beast, where it sports a 3.7-liter V6 engine underneath the hood, capable of releasing 304 horses when you put your foot down fully, not to mention 279 pound-feet of torque.
Power and muscle are not all that will be on offer, since Ford is smart enough to throw in additional new high-tech sensors, sturdy bullet-resistant glass that could potentially be a life saver, as well as Ford’s Sync connected car technology. In addition, there is also a fancier option that will feature an EcoBoost engine that will deliver 365 horsepower and 350 pound-feet of torque.
The Ford Police Interceptor will be an all-wheel-drive vehicle, where it has been specially developed alongside input from Ford’s Police Advisory Board. In a nutshell, this ride is all about being a vehicle that police officers would love to have. An automatic “Pursuit Mode” switch is worth checking out, allowing the ride to detect “aggressive driving situations” so that the long arm of the law can jump right into action in double quick time.
