How fast is that Cop Car?
Allpar.com, the DaimlerChrysler enthusiast site, has the results of a comparison test between the latest police packages. The hemi-powered Dodge Charger and Magnum blew away the Crown Vic and Impala in the acceleration tests, but on the closed course all of the cars were close together. What might seal the fate of the Crown Vic as the standard police cruiser is the marked superiority in braking shown by the Charger.
Two areas very important to police departments aren't discussed in this article. The first is usable trunk space. The second is long-term costs and durability. Both of these are areas where the Crown Vic has built up a top-notch reputation.
