The 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility (PIU) from Ford Pro continues to set the bar for pursuit-rated law enforcement vehicles with a standard hybrid powertrain option. The hybrid system powers onboard equipment even when the gas engine is off, contributing to a potential savings of up to 838 gallons of fuel per year. This translates to projected cost reductions of approximately $17,500 over a 6-year ownership term with gas at $3.50 per gallon.
The 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility comes standard with features designed to help ensure officer safety and productivity. The Police Perimeter Alert system detects moving threats around the vehicle, automatically activating the rear camera, sounding a chime, rolling up windows, and locking the doors, so that officers can monitor their surroundings at different sensitivity levels and complete tasks inside the vehicle. When officers must exit the vehicle quickly, Police Engine Idle, lets officers lock the vehicle and take the keys with them, but allows the engine to remain running to power the onboard equipment.
Available ballistic panels can be added to the front door panels that provide level III+ or IV+ protection. Level III+ can help resist many handgun and non-armor-piercing bullets up to .30 caliber, while level IV+ panels provide protection against up to .30-caliber armor-piercing rifle ammunition.
Newly standard Advanced Driver-Assist technology3 such as Automatic Emergency Braking, BLIS® (Blind Spot Monitoring with Cross-traffic Alert), Rear Parking Sensors, Reverse Brake Assist and Rear Cross-Traffic Braking provides driving assurance for officers in various scenarios.
