BMW Group will supply Carbon Motors Corp. with 240,000 diesel engines, cooling and exhaust gas systems and six-speed automatic transmissions for Carbon's E7 car, designed specifically for police use.

"The first engines will be delivered in July 2013," said a spokesperson for BMW of North America. Carbon Motors has received more than 12,000 orders since mid-2009, the spokesperson said.

BMW over several years will provide a 245-hp inline diesel engine that produces 400 pounds-feet of torque.
