This is the 2015 Ford Transit Prisoner Transport Vehicle and you don’t want to be caught riding in it. It’s the latest addition to Ford’s police lineup of vehicles you don’t want to be in the back of.
Ford created this version of its new full-size Transit van with the help of its Police Advisory Board and Havis Prisoner Transport Solutions. It features room for 12, um, passengers in the back of the van in three separate compartments, depending on wheelbase.
Like other Transits, the Prisoner Transport Vehicle is available with a normal 3.7-liter V6, the 3.7-liter Ecoboost V6 or the 3.2-liter turbodiesel. It’s proof law enforcement agencies can be more efficient than ever before in taking people to jail.
