Police Interceptors

Next time you see red and blue lights flashing in your rear-view mirror, odds are they'll be attached to a Ford. Between sales of its Police Interceptor Sedan, which is based on the Taurus, and Utility, which is based on the Explorer, Ford holds a 61 percent share of the police car market, with the Utility holding the top overall spot.
Last year it was reported that Ford Police Interceptor sedans had a problem. They reportedly shut off randomly with no way to restart them after fuel pump control modules failed.
More than 88,000 cars and SUVs were affected, including every Ford Police Interceptor sedan built at the Chicago plant between 2013 and 2015.

Dodge offers a 5.7L HEMI® V8 engine on it's Charger Interceptor. It delivers 370 horsepower and 395 pound-feet of torque.
