What Michigan actually tested

The specification of every vehicle described in the Michigan books, as the books printed it.

Alongside its results, each Michigan report prints the police vehicle specifications for the car or motorcycle it tested: axle ratio, steering, turning circle, tyre size, suspension, brakes, kerb weight, alternator and battery. This page holds 322 vehicles from 22 test years between 1996–2026, across 15 manufacturers. Search for a model, filter by manufacturer or decade, and open any vehicle for its full description.

Six years are missing because the books do not contain the pages: 1995, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2003 and 2004 are short bulletins, and the 1980–83 reports are scans with no readable text. A field is blank because the book left it blank. Nothing here is estimated.
