Ford Police Interceptor
In a Michigan State Police test, the new Ford EcoBoost®-powered Police Interceptor outran the competition: the Chevrolet Caprice V8 and Hemi Dodge Charger. The Ford Police Interceptor utility with EcoBoost overpowered the V8-equipped Chevrolet Tahoe.
“These tests conducted by the Michigan State Police are an important validation of best-in-class performance in outright acceleration – the most critical measure of police pursuit vehicles,” according to Ford chief engineer, Bill Gubing.
The preliminary test results from the Michigan State Police reveal the fastest of the fast. The 2014 Ford Police Interceptor sedan with standard all-wheel drive came in with a 0-60 mph time of 5.66 seconds. The 5.7-liter Hemi-equipped Dodge Charger with optional all-wheel drive delivered a 6.04 seconds. While the Ford EcoBoost-powered sedan topped the 6.0-liter V8-equipped Chevrolet Caprice. It clocked a 6.01-second 0-60 mph time.
The gap in acceleration increases in the 0-100 mph testing. The Ford Police Interceptor turned a 13.5-second 0-100 mph time, while Dodge Charger delivered a performance of 14.70 seconds and Chevrolet Caprice finished with 14.35 seconds.
The new Ford Police Interceptor 3.5-liter EcoBoost-powered utility vehicle made its debut in Michigan State Police testing, and while competition was close among sedans, the Ford utility left its rivals in the dust. It’s clear to see why Ford has been the the best-selling police vehicle since 1996.
