"Carbon Motors E7"

"Are you good at spotting Ford Crown Victoria police cars before they spot you? Well, its going out of production and a new crop of cruisers is angling to grab a slice of the "pull over and get out of the car please" pie. Here's a look at the major players that may be coming to a rearview mirror near you."

"This one is both wild, and a wild card. The aluminum framed, BMW diesel-powered purpose-built cruiser is from an Indiana-based startup called Carbon Motors. The company is hoping to parlay a Homeland Security grant that it's applied for into the most radical police car ever. How radical? It has rear suicide doors. Not for the criminals to use for that purpose, but to make it easier to get them in the car. Yes, It's a brave new world for America's Finest."
