Wednesday, September 08, 2010 First-ever Ford Police Interceptor Utility Debuts
 Ford revealed the new Police Interceptor utility that’s designed to complement the sedan introduced earlier this year and give law enforcement agencies a comprehensive choice for pursuit vehicles.
These vehicles will deliver at least 20 percent better fuel economy than the current Crown Victoria Police Interceptor.
The new Interceptor meets a spectrum of needs and Ford now provides a complete package of performance and capability.
The vehicle is equipped with the 3.5-litre V6 engine. This Ti-VCT engine, delivering at least 280 horsepower and E85 compatibility, is mated to a unique six-speed automatic transmission that combines lowered initial gears for improved off-the-line acceleration and higher gearing for improved efficiency at lower engine rpm when cruising. Two drivetrain options are available, providing off-road capability teamed with a multipurpose cargo area specially calibrated for loads up to 800 pounds.
