Default Bad new police car concept

It looks like it's got a HEMI in it...

It will go up to a top speed of 250km/h, which makes it pretty suitable
as highway chase cars.

The interior is chock full of integrated police equipment such as an
automatic license plate recognition system, 360 degree exterior
surveillance capability, controls for a 130hz to 350hz bass siren, Night
vision compliant interior illumination, integrated forward looking
infrared system, integrated shotgun mounts, hose able backseat and video and audio surveillance of the rear passenger compartment.

According to the manufacturer - Carbon Motors - The front seat was made
to resemble a "helicopter-style cockpit". The company reportedly asked for
input from nearly 2000 police officers in a bid to make the car "cop
friendly".

Integrated push bumpers offer PIT maneuver capability

Neat....especially if they use a 300C SRT8 (6.1) car as the raw material.

Obviously you never had to try to get a drunk into one before the wife did want a new Charger for a new squad but she just changed her mind.

This is not a Concept but an actual car that is going to be produced for Police departments.
This was brought out 6 months ago on worldcarfans.com when it was announced.
Good luck getting away form one of these!!!

I've been thinking about becoming a police officer here in Las Vegas and I'm more than willing to rock that sucker around town....sounds like I'll be chasing Todd.
