While most of us can recognize the distinctive exterior of a police car from pretty far off, most of us hope to never be inside one. That said, law enforcement have a challenging job, and the vehicle of choice for the men and women in blue has to be top notch as well. That’s where the 2016 Dodge Charger Pursuit vehicle enhancements and the new Uconnect 12.1 system come in. Offering better than ever vehicle controls, this system is designed to help law enforcement officers do their job.

Officers are also able to manipulate the vehicle controls like radio and air conditioning with manual buttons, voice commands, and even steering-wheel controls. These systems are designed to work in both extremely hot and extremely cold conditions, and even be use-able for officers wearing gloves.
“As technology continues to evolve, the next wave of Uconnect features and services is in constant progression and our latest Charger Pursuit application with our massive 12.1-inch touchscreen display is just a taste of our in-house capabilities to expand and integrate different technologies for our customers,” said Joni Christensen, Head of Uconnect Marketing, in a recent press release. “This is a great opportunity to adapt our easy-to-use Uconnect system to benefit law enforcement officers, making it even easier to keep their hand on the wheel and eyes on the road.”
While most of us won’t ever see the 2016 Dodge Charger Pursuit up close and personal, still we can hope that the gorgeous massive touchscreen may someday also become available in civilian vehicles. And they are pretty to look at from a distance.
