For the 2018 model year, Dodge has rolled out some minor but useful updates to the Charger Pursuit police car. It now features a larger infotainment screen standard. It moves from 5 inches to 7 inches. But if police departments wish, they can opt for a massive 12-inch touchscreen that can replace a cumbersome laptop computer.
Selecting the “Officer Protection Package” also adds the “Fleet Safety Group,” a new feature for the Charger Pursuit. This group of options adds blind-spot monitoring and rear cross-traffic alert.
Finally, a new color “IndiGo Blue,” will be offered. It joins an array of factory and police-only colors for the Charger Pursuit. Interestingly, a Charger Pursuit can also be had in very bright colors such as “Go Mango” orange, and “TorRed” red.
” This package, like last year, uses the rear-view camera and parking sensors to monitor whether someone is approaching behind the car. ”
IT JUST CAN’T DETECT THAT INCOMING .30 CALIBER BULLET…………………….
(LAUGHING)
Big fan of .30 here, brother!
.30 of every sort, sir!
9mm carbine makes for an affordable suppression tool as well 🙂
When they Up Armor the pigmobiles you know it’s game on
This is just another incremental step in that direction
Unchallenged, as #1 would say.
People walk behind and around cop cars all the time in urban areas. I’d expect a motion detection system like this to cause constant false alarms while doing essentially nothing to stop a real ambush.
yup, after a while it will be ignored ,, just like car alarms are in Detroit
If it locks the doors and rolls up the windows perhaps it is to protect the public from the cops.
Good to know these sort of things ya know…
