The Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid lets you run on gas for longer trips, but you can plug it in at home and charge overnight and drive on electricity for 35 miles. You get the benefits of an electric car without the range problem for a road trip.

If your battery dies, no problem. You can run on gas just like a normal car and never have to worry about finding a charger. You can choose between full EV, gas, or auto and let the car run as a normal hybrid. It's a clever system that lets you operate very inexpensively.

    Owned one for about two months. Commuting 6 days a week 82 miles round trip. Overall, city about 52 mpg. Freeway 58. Yes I get the 105 miles for the first gallon when fully charged. Great pickup when needed. I never fear traffic. Even when the battery is depleted, the brakes recharge and the engine will continue to use the electric engine. Overall I chose to put my money into ford instead of oil. The peace of mind and nifty features are all nice. We fit family and dogs without compromise. Don't overlook this one if your in the market.
  • I dont understand why there arent MORE plug in hybrids. My folks who live wayyyy out in the country want a large plug in hybrid SUV and there are hardly any options. A million options if you want a normal hybrid, and (soon) a pure EV, but I think plug in hybrids are the best of both worlds right now, for all the reasons you state. ESPECIALLY if you live out in the middle of the country as many Americans do.
  • I just have 2020 Ford Escape SE in black since last mid March. My is gas power. I really liked it.
  • So the big question here is, is that 0.18 per kwh without any kwh related Admin fees? For example, I have a fixed rate of about 0.12 per kwh, but my provider tachs on about 0.07 per kwh for related admin costs. If you take your last 12 bills from your service provider you can probably figure out which admin fees are related to the kwh used.

    No No - this is a Ford Kuga. Somehow they put the wrong Name on the car ;-) - Very detailed Video again. Makes even a boring car interesting. That`s not an easy task.

    Great detailed review. I owned a 2017 2.0L Escape. It was great vehicle. Never a single problem in 80k miles. It was so fast for what you think that car would ever be. I drove a 2020 Hybrid before the PHEV was out. The acceleration was way too slow, epically being used to that 2.0L. So I went with a Jeep. Wanted something capable and little bigger. Will be taking a look at the 2023 Escape PHEV, I hope its fast enough. Live in Brooklyn and the entrance ramps are the size of my old driveway in NJ, who ever design some of these roads around NYC, WTF. Coming from the state of the U turn capital (NJ) .

  • @alfontana6242
    Escape plug in hybrid not available in all wheel drive. This alone makes it a no buy for quite a few people in my opinion. We have a 2022 RAV 4 Prime model SE all wheel drive now with well over 6,000 miles. This summer we have been getting over 50 miles per electric charge and 45+ MPG when operating in pure hybrid mode with a depleted battery. Why would anybody buy a Escape plug in hybrid when they can purchase a RAV 4 Prime.
  • @timw4369
    Bev. hybrids are like all season tires not good at anything.
  • I'm a Ford guy and even I don't want that POS. The day Ford stops building ICE Mustangs is the day I find a different brand. Just sayin'.
