Ford has announced that order banks are now open for the 2025 Police Interceptor Utility, America’s best-selling patrol vehicle.
Order Banks Now Open for the 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility
The 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility is offered with three different engine options.

Ford
New for 2025
The 2025 Ford PIU models feature numerous updates and improvements, including:
A bigger center display with better imagery, graphics and advanced OTA capabilities over the previous model year.
The Ford Pro Upfit Integration System (UIS), new to the 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility, simplifies the upfitting process while enabling added functionality and smart vehicle programming.
· Manual Police Pursuit Mode, which is offered in addition to Automatic Pursuit Mode present in previous models, enhances drivability and power delivery in situations between regular driving and intense pursuits, such as passing through tight traffic in congested areas.
· The 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility also has the same front-end build, including the grille, so police agencies can avoid extra expenses when transitioning front-end upfitting content to new vehicles as they decommission older models.
Safety and Productivity
The 2025 PIU also offers a number of officer safety and productivity features, including
· Police Perimeter Alert: Detects moving threats around a vehicle to give officers better situational awareness while they complete tasks inside the vehicle, such as filling out reports. When the system detects a moving threat, it automatically activates the rear camera, sounds a chime, rolls up any lowered windows and locks the doors. The alerted officer can then monitor the situation.
· Police Engine Idle: Secures the vehicle but keeps vital systems and equipment running with anti-theft keyless engine idling when officers must exit vehicles quickly.
· Police Dark Car: When officers need to remain undetected, such as during a stakeout, the Police Dark Car helps by turning off all interior lights in the vehicle except the drive console, which is dimmed. Courtesy lamps are also disabled when any door is opened.
· Additional Driver Assist Technology: Features such as the automatic emergency braking system, BLIS (Blind Spot Monitoring with Cross-traffic Alert), reverse sensing and cross-traffic brake assist now come standard and updated. Technology additions, such as a new radar on the fascia, enhance the emergency braking system and improve driver assist performance.
Three Different Engines
The 2025 Ford Police Interceptor Utility is offered with three different engine options:
3.3L V6 gas engine with AWD. This engine also features a 10-Speed Automatic transmission, 285 horsepower and 260 lbs. ft. of torque.
