Carbon Motors E7 Police Car to go into production in 2012

There are over 425,000 law enforcement vehicles in service in the U.S. Carbon Motors hopes to take that market by storm, offering a vehicle that easily exceeds current vehicles' fuel economy, utility and safety - over 50% of officer injuries take place in their vehicles. Carbon Motors hopes to bring the E7 in around the same price as a fully equipped version of current cruisers. Judging by the reaction local cops had when they saw the E7 yesterday, there's going to be a lot of eager customers.

The Carbon E7 is powered by a 3.0L turbo-diesel that makes a total of 300-hp with a peak torque of 420 lb-ft. The engine is mated to a 6-speed automatic that helps with the 0 to 60 mph time of 6.5 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph.

The best part is that cops can now be fuel-efficient while being powerful since the Carbon E7 returns an estimated combined fuel-economy between 28 to 30 mpg.
