Carbon E7 the future of ‘Superhero’ police cars

Police officers are no longer satisfied with their normal cars, but instead, would prefer a high-tech one that is often featured in superhero movies.

This may soon become a reality. Carbon Motors Corp. has a new high-tech cop car prototype that might not have all the superhero specs, but some police say it could be a welcome addition to their arsenal.

The Carbon E7 concept was designed by cops for cops, breaking the tradition of recruiting family sedans into the force, company co-founder Stacy Dean Stephens said.

"The current vehicles that they (police departments) use were designed for driving around, going to the grocery store, taking kids to school -- things like that," Stephens said.

The car has 300-horsepower clean diesel engine, flashing lights visible from all angles, an ergonomic cockpit, an onboard computer with voice command and instant license plate recognition, integrated shotgun mounts, and more.
