Ford claims that its all-new 2021 F-150 Police Responder has the best acceleration of any pursuit-rated police vehicle tested, as it boasts the fastest 0-60 mph, 0-100 mph and quarter-mile times of any law enforcement vehicle, including SUVs and sedans. It achieved a 0-60 mph time of 5.4 seconds, a 0-100 mph time of 3.7 seconds and a 120 mph top speed, which is a 15 mph increase.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department tests showed 2021 F-150 Police Responder completing the quarter mile in a speedy 14.4 seconds, a full second faster than the 2020 model and 0.4 seconds faster than its closest competitor, thanks to increased torque and a new torque-on-demand 4×4 transfer case. It’s powered by a standard police-tuned 3.5L EcoBoost engine generating 500 lb-ft of torque, while its automatic four-wheel-drive mode and torque-on-demand transfer case constantly adjust torque to front or rear wheels as necessary.

Vehicle acceleration and speed contribute to how quickly first responders can safely arrive at an emergency scene. Shaving even a few seconds off response times can make a big difference. Whether responding to an accident on the highway or a distress call from somewhere off-road, law enforcement officers can count on 2021 F-150 Police Responder to get them there fast,” said Greg Ebel, Ford police vehicle brand manager.
