The new 2012 Dodge Charger V6 and V8 models set new levels of performance at Michigan State Police’s (MSP) annual Police Vehicle Evaluation tests. The Charger emerged from these tests with the fastest lap time ever recorded at this event, 1:33.7.

The Dodge Charger Pursuit is available with two potent engines, including a 370 horsepower V8 and a 292 horsepower V6. Both units are capable of delivering rapid acceleration, which is perfect for quickly catching up to target vehicles.

“Achieving the fastest-ever lap time at the Michigan State Police’s annual Police Vehicle Evaluation test reflects the mission of the Dodge Charger Pursuit Team to equip our law enforcement officials with the absolute best combination of vehicle performance and tactical equipment,” said Peter Grady, Vice President of Network Development and Fleet, Chrysler Group LLC. “Even more impressive is that all four Michigan State Police Vehicle Test Team drivers averaged their fastest times in the Charger Pursuit – reinforcing the driver confidence provided when world-class acceleration, braking, handling and dynamics are combined.”

According to Chrysler, the 2012 Dodge Charger Pursuit provides law-enforcement with the best combination of tactical technology, safety, power, efficiency and an iconic design. Recent tests by the MSP show that Charger Pursuit is indeed a formidable vehicle for law enforcement agencies. In addition to acceleration times, the vehicle was noted for its superior ride and handling.

Safety for law enforcement professionals is also assured in the Charger Pursuit, as it was named a “Top Safety Pick” by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
