<a href="http://autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> and <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/gm">General Motors</a> have already made big splashes this year by introducing their next-generation police pursuit vehicles, and while the <a href="http://autoblog.com/model/taurus">Taurus</a>- and <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/caprice">Caprice</a>-based cruisers will surely be stiff competition for one another, <a href="http://autoblog.com/make/chrysler">Chrysler</a> now presents its police fleet offering, the 2011 Charger Pursuit.<br />
<br />
The Pursuit is based on the <a href="http://autoblog.com/tag/charger">new-for-2011 Dodge Charger</a> that we only recently saw <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/21/reader-spy-2011-dodge-charger-revealed-on-the-set-of-the-fas/">almost completely uncovered in spy shots</a>, and will be offered with either Chrysler's 3.6-liter Pentastar V6 or 5.7-liter Hemi V8. (What, no Pursuit SRT8?) Naturally, this Charger has been modified to be better suited for police duty, and includes things like heavy-duty anti-lock brakes, front and rear stabilizer bars, a two-mode police-specific stability control system and 18-inch performance tires on steel wheels.<br />
<br />
Inside, the front cabin has been modified to better serve as a mobile command center, and Chrysler is offering a police interface module for easy integration of existing computer equipment. We aren't sure if this is similar to what Ford has done with the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/12/police-interceptor-ford-unveiled/">Taurus Police Interceptor</a>, and we'll have a better idea when we get more images and details about the Pursuit, likely to be released after the civilian Charger is fully unveiled.<br />
<br />
Police forces will be able to order the 2011 Charger Pursuit starting next month. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/08/24/chrysler-releases-details-on-2011-dodge-charger-pursuit-police-c/#continued">Follow the jump</a> to read the full press release.<br />
