Ford's Hybrid 2025 Police Interceptor Gets Powertrain, Safety Upgrades

Aug. 22, 2024

The Ford Police Interceptor vehicles are also used for fire chief and EMS response units.

The 2025 Ford PIU features a new, standard 12.3-inch LCD instrument cluster for “clearer information display during operation,” according to the release.

Ford Pro’s 2025 Police Interceptor Utility vehicle recently launched with a standard hybrid option and safety and technology upgrades. These upgrades increase efficiency for police agencies, fire departments and EMS units. While the PIU is still offered with a gas powertrain, the hybrid provides features that benefit the bottom line.

“It's a zero compromise in terms of performance for the hybrid versus the gas,” Lindsey Bertino, police brand marketing manager at Ford, told FleetOwner. “We rate them at the same top speed."

The main things service agencies are telling Bertino and the team at Ford focus on the PIU hybrid’s fuel savings, reduced maintenance costs, and lower CO2—not to mention the tech-integration technologies that upfitters appreciate.
