With the news of astronomical gas prices fresh in the public’s mind, Ford has come forth with good news involving the newest models of the venerable Police Interceptors. Ford has engineered the engines in the new Police Interceptor sedan (Taurus based) and utility (Explorer based) to be frugal on fuel, without sacrificing the performance our law enforcement agencies rely on.
While the impressive 25-percent fuel economy boost over the now-retired Crown Victoria, Ford has also9 managed to improve fuel economy even while the car is not in motion. Many police cruisers spend hours a day idling, and the new engines can provide up to 35-percent better fuel economy than its predecsessor.
Bill Gubing, chief engineer of the Ford Police Program states, “Our latest fuel-efficient V6 engines deliver on our promise for increased performance and improved economy, while providing government agencies with a money-saving solution.”
With gas prices soaring ever higher and many government agencies desperately trying to reduce costs, the new Ford Police Interceptor line looks to be a wallet friendly decision.
