2007 Brabus Mercedes Benz CLS Police Car
Every few months, a tuner or automaker comes up with a new ultra-powerful police car for a lucky law enforcement agency to drive at high speed while enforcing the laws of the land. Weve seen a Lamborghini police car, but a Gallardo is hardly a practical law enforcement vehicle.Thats why Germanys Brabus and teamed up with the "Tune It Safe" program to build a police versrion of the "Brabus Rocket" souped up Mercedes CLS. The V12 four-door has been described as the fastest "sedan" in the world, capable of reaching 62 mph in four seconds thanks to an amazing 730 horsepower.
Generally, police cars like these — capable of 225.19 mph — dont make a lot of sense, but Germanys unlimited speed highways mean the cops might actually be able to enforce laws without simultaneously breaking other ones. The car is on display at the Essen Motor Show this month. Gallery after the jump.
To see more of the Tune It! Safe! Brabus CLS Rocket, keep scrolling for a number of photos showcasing it in all its polizei-painted glory. You can also check out its full list of specifications over at Tune It! Safe!s website, roughly translated from German for your reading entertainment.
Enjoy.
