What’s more, the Police Interceptor Utility hybrid, which is expected to deliver 24 combined mpg and thus save up to $3,500 per year for police departments in terms of fuel savings, topped all competitive SUVs with the fastest 0-100 mph time, fastest lap, and fastest average lap. The hybrid also boasts a 137-mph top speed, making it more powerful than competing V8-equipped SUVs and more powerful than the outgoing Police Interceptor Utility equipped with Ford’s 3.7-liter V6.
