Ford shows us there police patrol to give a small preview of the new Ford Explorer 2020, with hybrid mobility
Ford has shown its newest creation for the forces of the American order, and it is also an advance of what we will be able to see in the new generation of the Ford Explorer.
With the aim of continuing to provide a vehicle that can respond to the so-called police in the United States, Ford has presented its latest vehicle that introduces as a novelty the inclusion of hybrid technology in addition to allowing sufficient performance for the pursuit operations , you can do it more efficiently.
But observing in a more detached way, the electrified powertrain is aligned with Ford's future plans to offer vehicles that integrate these driving technologies.
In addition to waiting for the renewal of the Explorer, which would return to the rear traction scheme precisely to not lose the immense investment of the police bodies, which were disinterested when the current generation of the Explorer changed its construction scheme, leaving behind the chassis of stringers in favor of a unibody configuration.
And although Ford did not give specific details of the motorization to use, they assure that the fuel savings will improve up to 40 percent, compared to the current version, which uses the 3.7-liter V6 engine.
Another detail to highlight the hybrid system that uses the new Ford Police Interceptor Utility, is the ability to use lithium batteries mounted on the vehicle to provide a source of electricity for multiple electrical accessories, such as lights, radios, computers, among other tools used by the police.
Likewise, it equips a telemetry system that provides information on the vehicle's condition, as well as its polluting emissions, but above all its fuel consumption, which means better control for the police departments.
Also, a new perimeter alert system improves the operation of previous surveillance systems with the addition of a new element, which uses the blind spot monitoring system to monitor what is happening around the vehicle, in a vision of almost 270 degrees, allowing to reduce the threat risks.
This system incorporates a screen in which moving objects are displayed around the truck, which when it detects suspicious behavior, sounds an alarm, raises the windows and places the insurance automatically.
Also included is a rear view camera with on-demand image transmission, which improves the safety of on-board officers.
Although the US automaker has not made any statement about the use of the hybrid system in passenger vehicles, it is very likely that we will see in the renovated medium SUV that would use the new platform we saw in the new Lincoln Aviator , as part of its controversial product plan in which vehicles with SUV and pick-up bodies are the norm.
