You might contact the CHP. They do extensive research and testing when they look at new patrol vehicles. They may have all of the info you need on these vehicles and or others.
What is the size of your department, city, county, rural, highway, mountains etc.?
Do you need high speed vehicles, or city cruisers ? SUV's ?

Oregon State Police use Chargers and Ford SUV's. Medford City PD uses Chargers, but they do not buy the police package chargers. They seem happy with them.
But they have a no pursuit policy. So they mind as well have KIA's for that matter.

I'd contact State agencies, they usually have some sort of research program for patrol vehicles. A lot of other States, City's etc, will go with what the CHP purchase. Mainly because CHP does some serious testing on the vehicles they look at purchasing for their fleet. And they order so many of them.

Just a suggestion.
