Found this interesting, and it's police-car related so:

Chargers win every Time!

 

Sergeanto!

He's just re-posting what a well known blog annotated about acceleration and speed trials. Just because they won in that occurrence, doesn't mean it doesn't happen every time. Just means that Ford is meeting the competition from Dodge with more resources and updates.

Also note that lap speed tests show the Charger is still the top sedan in that field.

I still like my Charger 

In other news, 0.3 seconds is practically immeasurable in real life scenarios...

 

 

 

Ford, Chevy and Doge can let me know when they get a standardized police car that gets to 0-60 in 5 seconds or less, which would put it on par with a sports car. I'll care at that point. My heavy, V6 SUV has 300hp and does 0-60 in 6 seconds as it is. I'd expect a pursuit car to do much better than that. But they don't, even when the engines they put in them clearly have the potential.
