Ford Hybrid

First released in 1994, the Ford Escape hybrid is a gas-electric alternative to Ford Motor Company’s original SUV. The vehicle’s most appealing feature is its fuel economy.

Gas prices are the number one reason why people are switching to hybrid cars, and the Escape Hybrid definitely cushions the blow of the gas pump on your wallet.
There are other environmental benefits of driving the Ford Escape Hybrid over other vehicles. The Escape Hybrid also contains an Eco-friendly interior.

The Escape SUV Hybrid is Ford’s only hybrid, but truly one of its kind. The Escape Hybrid comes in 4-wheel drive, or full-wheel drive models. It really is a family style hybrid.

You can always have add-ons to the Escape Hybrid through the optional Premium Packages. The 4-wheel drive and Full-wheel drive models differ in highway and city miles per gallons ratings, however.

The Full-wheel drive Hybrid has a fuel economy rating of 34 miles/gallon in the city, and only 30 miles/gallon on the highway. Ford has just one hybrid on the market, but the company might include pick-up trucks and other vehicles in their hybrid

We hear there may be hybrid compact cars and sedans soon in their hybrid Expedition models. So if you are searching for a hybrid car or SUV, make sure you do not let the Ford Escape hybrid pass you by.
