20091114 LAPD WVLY G8 001

LAPD G8 Technology Demonstrator. This is a one of a kind test bed the LAPD is utilizing to showcase numerous new features of what will become the next generation police car after 2012. Grill mounted FLIR, Touchscreen interior computer, roof mounted light switches, front compartment side airbags, and much much more. The final version will have 7 inches added to the frame to make it longer and give more back seat room, and will have a completely different body on it to make it the new Chevy Caprice. Also note that this car is NOT California legal in regards to the lighting since it does not have a forward facing steady burn red light. For now, it is just a show car to let officers feel what the new, special for law enforcement seats feel like, let them explore the corvette C8 engine and electronics package, and let them know that the department is working hard to overcome the deficiencies in the Crown Victoria and what they experienced testing the Charger.
