Police forces across the UK are set to trial Ford’s latest blue-light vehicle – a 105mph all-wheel drive Ford Ranger Raptor.
With its FOX shock absorbers and Baja desert race mode as standard, it has more than enough to keep up with criminals making a getaway across gravel, mud and sand.
South Wales Police are among the first to test the Ranger Raptor pick-up – capable of travelling off-road almost as quickly as on it – which may prove to be the perfect tool to access some of the UK’s most rural locations.
And there’s no point trying to outsmart the police on-road, either, as evaluations of a 155mph Ford Focus ST estate are underway, too.
Both are the product of Ford’s Special Vehicle Preparation team, in Essex, which has added full Police livery with all-round emergency lights and sirens.
