In pictures: the story of the Classic American police car

Summary: Ford unveiled the Police Interceptor sedan concept in 2010, marking a shift from the Crown Victoria. Powered by a V6, the Taurus-based model offered either FWD or AWD and featured a police-optimised interior with stab-proof seats. Despite its innovations, the explorer-based Interceptor utility quickly outperformed, leading to a redesigned version in 2020 which joined Ford’s diverse police vehicle lineup, including hybrids and pickups.
