Lexus IS-F Is Pursuit Car Of Choice For Police
Humberside Police Force has chosen the Lexus IS-F as its pursuit car in favour of all other high-performance cars.
The Police Force have tested and considered many cars to be used as their next pursuit car over the past year and have decided that the Lexus IS-F was the ebst of the bunch.
The Lexus IS-F can reach 0-62mph in just 4.8 seconds thanks to the 417bhp 5 litre V8 engine and has a top speed limited to 168mph.
‘The purchase of the vehicle was far from an easy decision and involved research and advice from the force fleet manager, financial managers and a vehicle dynamics expert,’ said Sergeant Mike Peck, Humberside Police.
He continued: ‘The Lexus was tested during a 12-month period, along with similar vehicles, and proved itself to be ideally suited in providing a dynamically safe high-performance chassis along with an electronically stable platform for the computer equipment.
‘In the past this equipment has placed huge demands on vehicles, but the Lexus IS-F easily met with our requirements.’
