Ford, one of the largest car companies in America, gradually introduced more electric vehicles into its ranks. Only last week, the company announced a battery strategy to produce 600,000 EV in 2023. This has also invested $ 11.4 billion to build a Mega campus known as Blue Oval City to produce electric vehicles. If everything is running, Ford expects electric vehicles to contribute at least 40% of its total domestic sales in 2030.
In an effort to cover all bases, Ford made electric vehicles for the police. Car makers sell more than 50% of police vehicles in the US (via CNBC), and because they will become electricity, he intends to stay like that. Today, the company has revealed the details of the next electric vehicle ranks specifically designed for the police.
It can be the fastest accelerated police vehicle
When the Ford F-150 police respondent was tested by the Michigan state police in evaluating their 2020 model police vehicle, he reached a zero record of up to 60 mph in 5.43 seconds and it was the fastest police vehicle accelerated in testing. In the test results from the 2021-year-old model vehicle evaluation from the Michigan State Police, the 2020 Ford F-150 Police Responder (3.5L Ecoboost) model changed from zero to 60 in 6.61 seconds. Their test shows the utility of the Ford 2021 Police Interestor (3.0L Ecoboost AWD) reaching zero up to 60 in just 5.75 seconds: the fastest in the package.
In the latest edition of this series of tests, evaluating the Model Police Vehicles in 2022, 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E AWD took the crown with zero up to 60 times only 4.03 seconds. The 2022 Ford F-150 Police Responder (3.5L Ecoboost) model took a second place with zero up to 60 time 5.79 seconds. Ford promised that his electric pickup for the police would accelerate from zero to 60 mph in less than four seconds. If delivered, it could be the fastest new police vehicle on the road.
The first electric pickup truck for the police
After building Mustang Mach-E for the police, Ford now focuses on the new Ford F-150 lightning variant known as the “special pro-service vehicle” which will become the first electric pickup truck for the police. This is designed with the same features that you will find in Ford F-150 police respondents such as steel intrusion plates, heavyweight cloth chairs, and warning flare on the roof. It also includes a 12 -inch digital dashboard screen and another 12 -inch middle console touch screen.
Of course, it will come with the latest Ford technology such as SYNC 4 that can help police officers access services using voice recognition. We also hope to enter the Ford Co-Pilot360 which makes it safer for the driver. Ford said that all Ford-150 Lightning Pro SSV models can be linked to the police department vehicle fleet to save time and reduce maintenance costs.
Ford-150 Lightning Pro SSV will be available in two variants with standard and extended range batteries. Standard range battery variants will have 452 hp, 7,700 pounds, and 775 lb-ft capacity. torque, and maximum charge 2,235 pounds. On the other hand, the expanded range of battery ranges will come with 580 hp, 10,000 pound-pull capacity, and 775 lb-ft. torque. Ford has not revealed the Ford-150 Lightning Pro SSV battery range but will reveal more details this summer.
