2020 Ford Police Interceptor Comparison - Test Drive by Tedward

[@NorthernLaw_]

FORD COME ON, MAKE A 2020 CROWN VIC JUST FOR ONE YEAR!!! That would be amazing

[@Austin-cx2xe]

Nah, it would never be the same.

[@NorthernLaw_]

@CJ Lane Personally I plan on buying a Raptor new whenever it is that I can afford that but honestly a 2020 CV would be insane

[@bobalobalie]

If Ford did that they would quite literally be saying to their investors, “Hey, we plan on throwing away a couple million dollars because......well, just because.” Ford and about every other mainstream manufacturers are moving away from the sedan market. People don’t want sedans, people want SUVs and trucks.

I wish I could buy the 3.0 turbo police spec minus the markings, police lights, and spotlight. Reinforced suspension, brakes, and tires would be great for all the potholes here.

[@f0rdguy1989]

The 2020 Explorer ST is predicted to share a lot of components from the police model. Just like the Interceptor Sedan and the SHO did

[@overknight5278]

Thomas Griffin ik you could buy an unmarked version of the 2017 explorer, but i dont think it came with the twin turbos. Police also use the 3.7l v6 (or well for the 2017 version) compared to the 3.5l v6 twin turbo, and it made less power

[@Jason-kg3oc]

Once...just once I would like to watch a police car test drive video on youtube with out a "you wont want to be seeing this in your rearview mirror" joke

[@Cracyfox4359]

Thank you for presenting a great video. Being Australian, I'll never see these vehicles in action. The last Australian Ford Falcon sedans made for Police work had a 6 cylinder 4.0L inline turbo charged engine, plus everything else was also beefed up ie, bigger brakes, better suspension etc. These were extremely fast even beating the Falcon V8 Police vehicle until the V8 had stretched it's legs. Couldn't out run these vehicle unless you had an imported exotic vehicle. I truely miss the Falcons, you could drive 500 miles and step out refreshed as when you first sat down in it. Comparing the Falcon, it was almost identical to the Ford Taurus exterior, the slight difference were the rear lights design and the dash panels.

[@thallysdacostalima951]

You Should put a V8 in the Police Explorer and the Taurus

[@sergiofreitas9368]

I really don't, as much as we all love the nostalgic crown victoria, the 2020 FPIU is by FAR the fastest, probably safest and most efficient cruisers. The 3.0 Ecoboost absolutely flies past a Tahoe, with a top speed around 10-15mph higher.

[@MikeLowrey8990]

Aluminum engine and transmission to save gas, keep the vehicle light. My co worker had is hybrid engine they replace it for free, they said when the engine goes out again there replace it until Ford comes up with a fix. So good for the warranty. But a police vehicle is supposed to be tough and be able to take a beating and keep running, well but at least back in the day.

[@TedwardDrives]

Howdy! Thanks for watching

[@jaysmith1408]

The hybrid braking was the main reason i traded my hybrid in. The total lack of power was another. I like what they’re doing here with supplementing an already capable engine with hybrid electricity, as opposed to replacing it.

[@jeremyshafer537]

the new 2020 explorer police is still column shifter?!?! so, I don't think this is the electronic transmission like civilian model in 2020-future. In 2011-2019 model they use the same 6f55 transmission no matter the 3.7 or 3.5 ecoboost which is interchangeable but some mods is needed.

I felt the Crown vics were a great police car. Although, I am retired now, I wouldn't mind testing one of these SUV's out. Ford does make some good police cars although, my PV's are Chevy. But I will see how these do. I never drove one of the Dodge Charger (police packages) But I have heard and even seen them chase sports motorcycles down without a lot of effort. I wouldn't mind checking one of those out either. But back to ford. Looks like you may have a vehicle that some departments (especially in hilly or mountainous terrain) would be great. Keep impressing us!

5 years/100,000 miles, same as Dodge and Chevy police vehicles. No idea where 8 years came from.

[@Dirtyol12valve]

P Kranz ford offers 8 years or 100k miles warranty for the hybrid model.

[@sergiofreitas9368]

100000 is usually about 2 years for a county or highway department, and 1.7 years for a city department, if I'm not mistaken, so it's really not a lot considering most departments swap vehicles every 4-7 years

[@donsmods]

I'm curious, why doesnt Ford want to make more Vic's?

[@minivanmaster]

big sedan means low mpg, it has a lot of downsides for government regulation and consumer desires

[@worldlinerai]

Ford mentioned a few years ago that the Panther platform that the Crown Vic and the Town Car rode on was getting too old and out dated. It doesn’t meet current safety standards and Ford would have had to spend lots of money on it. The Panther platform is a favorite because it had a full body of frame chassis as opposed to unitized body that the current Explorers use meaning better durability and repairablility.

[@T_210]

Cracks me up- the Ford rep riding shotgun is hanging on to the siren controller in turns. Did Whelen spec for that?
