DESIGNED FOR EVERYONE'S SAFETY


  • Dodge Durango Pursuit are built with a high-strength steel safety frame that helps manage and dissipate crash energy to protect occupants.

  • These public safety vehicles typically come with multi-stage front airbags, side-curtain airbags, seat-mounted thorax airbags (to protect against side impacts), knee airbags, and active head restraints.

  • Safety and security features include the ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera, Rain Brake Support and Ready Alert Braking, a high-strength steel safety frame, available ballistic front-door panels and more.

  • Law-enforcement use often involves high speeds, rapid stops, or carrying heavy loads (gear, passengers, detainees, K-9 units). Cars like the Durango Pursuit use heavy-duty four-wheel disc brakes, performance-tuned suspension, load-leveling shocks, and cooled brakes to ensure reliable performance under stress.

What are government contracts for law enforcement vehicles?

A: These are formal agreements between a government entity (federal, state, or local) and a vehicle manufacturer or authorized dealer to supply vehicles specifically equipped or upfitted for law enforcement use. Contracts often include patrol cars, SUVs, motorcycles, specialty units, and related services.
