The Escape Hybrid was the first vehicle to combine SUV capability with the outstanding fuel economy and low environmental impact of a full hybrid vehicle. It has the ability to travel at speeds up to 44 miles per hour in full electric mode and uses no fuel when idling, such as when you’re stopped at a traffic light. The Escape Hybrid delivers an impressive 34 city mpg* when both the gas engine and electric motor are powering the vehicle. In addition, it features comfortable seating for five and a versatile cargo area.
