Ford Police Interceptor Revealed Before Chicago Debut

Ford is teasing a new Police Interceptor ahead of the 2015 Chicago Auto Show.

The American automaker fully revealed its 2016 Explorer SUV at last year’s Los Angeles Auto Show. While much of the changes and upgrades made to the Explorer were geared towards consumers, many of them will also make lives easier for law enforcement, not to mention more comfortable.
