Police departments across the States now have one more engine option for a total of three when it comes to Ford's Taurus-based Police Interceptor sedan, as the Blue Oval is introducing a 3.7-liter twin independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT) V6 engine to the car's range.
This is the same 3.7-liter V6 unit with an output of 305-horsepower and 279 lb.-ft. of torque found on the Explorer-based Police Interceptor Utility Vehicle, and it will squeeze between the already available 285hp flex-fuel 3.5-liter V6 and the 365HP 3.5-liter EcoBoost twin-turbocharged V6.
According to Ford, the horsepower and torque ratings of the 3.7-liter engine are the highest of any naturally aspirated V6 offered for pursuit-rated sedans in the country.
With this engine, the Police Interceptor Sedan achieves a fuel economy of 25 mpg (9.4lt/100km) on the highway, 18 mpg (13.1 lt/100km) in the city and 21 mpg (11.2lt/100km) combined.
“This combination of great performance and top-notch fuel economy means law enforcement agencies won’t have to compromise power or fuel efficiency while getting the job done,” said Bill Gubing, chief engineer for Police Interceptor.
