same engine?

[shaldaya]

I am curious, and really don't know
but does the police Taurus and the SHO Taurus have the same engine?

Not all interceptors are an Ecoboost. Years ago I asked to see under the hood of an Officer’s Taurus and it was naturally aspirated. But I believe it’s a 3.7 and not a civilian 3.5 NA. A lot of them are the same engine as the SHO though. Best to just pull over lol.

You could get the 3.5 NA, 3.5 EcoBoost or the 3.7 NA in the FPIS.

Starting 2013 police cars were also offered in a 240-hp turbocharged EcoBoost 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine

This was in the Special Service Police model. It was not pursuit rated. It was designed more as an undercover/admin car. It was also FWD only.
