Are hybrid Camry cars up to this sort of caper?

Not sure if they would be good for Police vehicles though

The 6.4L Hemi V8 retails for A$$60,290 (US$47,294).

This was interesting:

HIGHWAY patrol officers could soon look like a modern version of Mad Max — roaming our roads in Ford Mustangs.
With Ford and Holden ending production of their high performance Falcons and Commodores over the next three years, police forces across Australia are grappling with what to use next to catch high-speed criminals.
The Ford Mustang is the only V8 so far confirmed for Ford or Holden showrooms once the homegrown sedans switch to four-cylinder power similar to a Toyota Camry by the end of 2017.

WA doesn't use V8s as a rule for the police force, so options are really wide open. I reckon Subaru could be a surprise, as there are a few unmarked ones knocking about.
