We'd Love To Get Pulled Over By This C8 Corvette Cop Car

Police departments throughout the world often like to have their so-called halo cars. In Italy, they have been privileged enough to acquire a Lamborghini Huracan for both promotional and service needs. Meanwhile in Dubai, the police have become famous for its seemingly growing fleet of supercars. Even in the US, there's the occasional Ford Mustang with a set of rollers on its roof. So, what all-American sports car/muscle car could come next? Perhaps the new Chevrolet Corvette Stingray.

These new renderings created by graphic artist Aksyonov Nikita, via Behance, show a possible future involving a C8 Corvette Police Interceptor. Some familiar must-have police modifications are obvious, such as the light bar, spotlight, and bigger steel wheels. We gotta admit, the C8 does look good hereNikita claimed he began with the Stingray Coupe with the Z51 performance package and then added the aforementioned features along with police graphics running across the entire side of the coupe. Additional "Protect and Serve" and "911" stickers are also visible.

If a police department sought to obtain a C8, we highly doubt they'd change anything regarding the naturally aspirated 6.2-liter V8 with a total of 495 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque. After all, a stock C8 can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 2.9 seconds, putting it on par with the likes of the Nissan GT-R and Acura NSX. Not bad for a car that can begin at $60,000.

Volvo Approves Plans For Mystery New SUV...

Although sales for sedans like the Volvo S60 and S80 are not the strongest these days, popularity for its SUVs has never been higher. The Volvo XC40 and larger XC60 and XC90 are proving to be formidable competitors in their respective luxury SUV segments. Meanwhile, the XC40's all-electric sibling, the XC40 Recharge, Volvo's first-ever pure electric SUV, has just entered production. So where does Volvo go from here, aside from regular model cycle redesigns? Well, it appears it's going smaller and all-electric. According to Auto Express, Volvo has decided its next SUV will be an all battery-electric even smaller than the XC40. More than likely, it'll be called the XC20, a nameplate the firm has already trademarked. Speaking to Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson at this year's Beijing Auto Show, he confirmed the smaller XC20 EV SUV will be one of Volvo's first vehicle to ride on a new dedi...

The Incomparable Rolls-Royce Boat Tail Makes An Appearance

A better location for a global debut could not be found. Rolls-Royce isn't a company known for making sub-par automobiles, but every once in a while, the British luxury marque will reveal something that is astonishing, even by its own standards. While we'd have no problem driving around in a Rolls-Royce Phantom, the rich and famous want something more, and that's where coachbuilt artworks like the Rolls-Royce Boat Tail come in. It's a gorgeous ode to opulence that only the world's most affluent can afford, which means that mere mortals like you and I will likely never see it in the metal, but thanks to the car making its public debut this past weekend, some had the opportunity to marvel at the Boat Tail's finer details in person. The car's first-ever public appearance was this past weekend, October 2-3 at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este, on the shores of the glamorous Lake Como in Italy. Unveiling the car here is something of a tradition now, as...
