Comparing the Ford Brand’s Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Lineups

Ford offers an impressive selection of both hybrid and fully electric vehicles, providing eco-conscious drivers with a range of options. While both types of vehicles offer environmental benefits and reduced fuel costs compared to traditional gas-powered cars, there are some key differences between the Ford Brand’s hybrid and all-electric lineups. Here’s what you need to know.

 

Ford Hybrid Vehicles

The Ford Brand’s hybrid vehicles, like the Ford Escape Hybrid, combine a gasoline engine with an electric motor and battery. The electric motor provides extra power and allows the vehicle to operate more efficiently, switching between gas and electric power as needed. Some of the Ford Brand’s hybrids are also plug-in models, which means their batteries can be recharged by plugging into an electrical outlet or charging station. This allows them to drive longer distances on electric power alone.

Here are some of the main benefits of choosing a Ford hybrid vehicle:

• Improved fuel efficiency compared to gas-only vehicles
• Ability to drive short distances on electric power alone
• Smooth and seamless switch between gas and electric power

Ford Electric Vehicles

The Ford Brand’s all-electric vehicles, like the Ford Mustang Mach-E, run solely on electric power provided by a rechargeable battery pack. They produce zero direct emissions and can be charged at home or at public charging stations. Electric motors provide instant torque for quick acceleration.

The primary advantages of going with an all-electric Ford vehicle include:

• Zero direct emissions for eco-friendly transportation
• On-demand power with instantaneous torque
• Lower operating costs than gas vehicles
