Ford Hybrid Car
Although Asian companies such as Toyota and Honda seem to be on the forefront when it comes to releasing new hybrid electric vehicles, it is car companies like Ford that bring the technology closer to home. More known for manufacturing some of the best and most trusted cars and SUVs in the United States, it was only a matter of time that the company also began the production of the Ford hybrid car.
Escape
Ford Escape is one of the bestselling product that Ford is known for. Ford made the transformation to hybrid by introducing the Ford Escape Hybrid in 2004, a gas-electric version of the SUV from Ford Motor Company.
Ford is the first car producer to bring in a hybrid SUV into the market. What makes the Ford Escape Hybrid special is that it sports a full hybrid system. This basically means that it can rely on three systems. It can run on a purely electric system, run purely on gas, or combine both the electric motor and gasoline engine for maximum performance and optimized mileage, regardless of speed or load.
Like most hybrids of today, the Ford hybrid car relies on a technology known as regenerative braking. This utilizes the electric drive motor as a generator and basically converts the vehicles momentum into electricity for storage in onboard batteries. That is one of the most efficient technologies any hybrid vehicle can have. The vehicle is known to achieve 36 miles to the gallon on city streets and 31 miles to the gallon on highways; for an SUV, this is fantastic!
Innards
With the kind of interiors that they build their cars with, Ford definitely knows how to make lasting impressions. The Ford hybrid car gets no less of a treatment and actually comes packed with more than one can bargain for. Since it runs on an entirely different system (or three), the Ford Escape comes packed with a navigation system that also comes with a power-flow display that allows the driver to check on the status of the batteries being charged or used in the car.
The details of the distribution of energy within the hybrid vehicle itself is also shown in the display; this is especially important for those who are conscious about energy consumption. Since the CD area has been taken over by the GPS used for the navigation system, a separate 7 speaker stereo system and 6 CD-changer is also offered for the Ford hybrid car.
The Ford hybrid car is available to the market at a hefty price of about $30,000. This may be a high price tag but for an SUV that can save you gas that includes all the features that you can only dream about (such as the navigation system), it is more than just a good bargain.
The hybrid SUV can save you lots of money at the pump, through tax breaks supported by the US government and will also earn you the respect from a world community that believes something needs to be done to save the condition of the Earth's environment. - 21393
