2024 Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid

The Mighty Maverick Hybrid

With seating for five and a standard 8-inch LCD touchscreen center stack, there’s a lot to love about the small-segment Maverick. The 2.5-liter FHEV hybrid engine comes in a front-wheel-drive powertrain and offers 191 combined horsepower and 155 lb-ft of torque (though that figure omits output from the electric motor, which may add considerable oomph). All three trims of the Maverick offer the hybrid powertrain, with higher trims getting an upgraded Co-Pilot360 safety package, an optional power moonroof, and more.

The Fearless F-150 Hybrid

When a full-sized truck is what you need, look no further than the F-150. Mating a powerful electric motor to a 3.5-liter gas power plant, the 3.5L PowerBoost Full Hybrid V6 variants of the F-150 pack a mighty roar, offering 430 horsepower, 570 lb-ft of torque, and a towing capacity of 11,200 pounds. Available on the XLT, Tremor, Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum trims, the PowerBoost drivetrain offers the ability to deliver 7.2 kW of power from the Pro Power Onboard system.

With legendary performance and reliability, the real question is what set of amenities you want. With five options to choose from, drivers can pick between luxurious hauling or simpler, economic trims, making the F-150 able to meet the demands of almost every buyer.

The Elegant Escape Hybrid

Available on all ST-Line and Platinum trims of the Escape, Ford offers a 2.5-liter iVCT Atkinson-cycle I-4 hybrid engine. The Escape has the unique distinction among its siblings by offering both fuel-hybrid and plug-in hybrid variants. The FHEV offers 192 total horsepower and 155 lb-ft of torque, with the option of an all-wheel drive powertrain. The FHEV gets an impressive 39 combined mpg, while the plug-in hybrid variant gets a whopping 101 mpge, even with more total horsepower at 210.

Both variants come with massive 13.2-inch infotainment displays and a slew of safety features thanks to Ford’s Co-Pilot360 offerings. While included features will vary by trim, all variants of the Escape hybrid seat 5 comfortably thanks to 102.2 cubic feet of passenger volume, offering 34.4 cubic feet of storage behind the second row and making plenty of room for bags, gear, and more.

Whether you’re looking for more power or less pollution, Ford has plenty of great options in the hybrid line-up for 2024. The real question is which one you’ll drive off the lot. Visit Fury Ford Waconia in Waconia, MN, and find your Ford today.
