– Sleek, absolutely streamlined and very fierce, a specialized stealth concept car version of Ford's Police Interceptor will be launch at the SEMA (Specialty Equipment Market Association) trade show in Las Vegas.

Using the muscular stance and strong lines of the Ford Police Interceptor sedan as a foundation, elegant customized undercover stealth version that's both stylish and full of high-tech surprises is the main reason for Ford designer Melvin Betancourt to developed.

'This car offered the perfect canvas for me as a designer,' Betancourt said. 'The Police Interceptor sedan is already a unique vehicle as a concept car. I just started looking at ways to give it that more mysterious but have a high-tech look.'

The Police Interceptor sedan was introduced in March, followed by a utility version in September. Both Interceptors will launch simultaneously when production of the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor ceases in late 2011.

Do you know where the inspiration come from? the answer is top secret-airplane

SR-71 Blackbird

Betancourt used imagery of the SR-71, the original stealth airplane, for inspiration as he customized the vehicle. Known as the 'Blackbird,' this high-altitude, long-range reconnaissance aircraft was secretly designed in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Its top speed was more than three times the speed of sound. Now retired, the Blackbird is considered by many aviation enthusiasts as the ultimate airplane.

Betancourt kept in mind the Blackbird's iconic imagery and status as he considered the elements of his own stealth project. 'When you think stealth, you think, ‘there, but not there.' strength, secrecy and concealment is main concept.'

The exterior of the Police Interceptor stealth vehicle is absolutely solid black. The grille is mesh, like the original sedan, but the metal is thicker, offering more depth. The lights on the car are designed to be inconspicuous, with the surrounding area painted black so they blend in until illuminated.

The back of the vehicle was given an aggressive spoiler adorned with bead lights painted black so they remain unnoticed until the car is started. The taillights are smoked, the windows tinted.

It's a vehicle that exudes power – and it should. The production Police Interceptor sedan model offers two powertrain options, allowing police to choose the engine that best meets their needs.

A 3.5-liter V6 engine delivering at least 280 horsepower and E85 compatibility is 25 percent more efficient than the 4.6-liter single-overhead-cam V8 offered in the current Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. And an all-new 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged, direct-injection EcoBoost™ V6 engine will deliver at least 365 horsepower and 350 lb.-ft. of torque across a broad rpm range.
