Carbon Motors E7 - cops only
In a time when big cars seem to be out of fashion, it seems one company is looking to begin making its own large sedan for a very exclusive list of clients. How exclusive? Unless your name is Uncle Sam, you can’t get one.
Carbon Motors is introducing a model called the E7 that will be sold exclusively to law enforcement agencies. Although this concept has been around for about a year, it looks like the car is getting closer to production. While the company is still looking for investors, a prototype will begin touring the country later this month.
Part of why Carbon Motors wants to start this program is so they can buy back the cars and recycle them. “Today the criminal element is buying these cars because they still look like police cars,” said William Santana Li, CEO of Carbon Motors Corp. By taking them back, Carbon will have better control of where police and government agency cars end their life.
