The Yellow/Red/Blue XB Max is driving at the start is an "Interceptor".
Point in case, when they return from Johnny the boy's court case, Charlie is heard to
say - "I can see the interceptor." refering to Max's car.
In the US trailer for the movie, Max is also refered to as "A top Interceptor for the Main Force Patrol".

The other Y/R/B cars are just "Pursuits".

Call me OCD, but it's something I get pedantic about...lol
Both of max's cars were interceptor, that was his roll in MFP. They were replacing his yellow 4 door with a blown 2 door because he was going to leave MFP.

The black 2 door is referred to as an interceptor in MM2
"Last of the v8 interceptors, piece of history..."

However 'March hare' and 'Big bopper' were pursuit drivers.
