On-road performance and a spacious, comfortable interior are two of the elements that make the Ford Escape one of the most popular models from the manufacturer. This year, Ford is taking you one step further by adding a Plug-In Hybrid that makes no concessions. Combining a good dose of power and a range like few others, the Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid is perfect for any trip!

To build your own Ford Escape or for information on the 2020 Ford Escape or the 2020 Ford Bronco prices, your Laval dealer has the answer to everything!
The Rechargeable Hybrid That Defies Competition!
First of all, the 2021 Ford Escape lineup now includes two hybrid versions, including a Plug-In Hybrid. The Plug-In Hybrid is hitting the road this year and has many features that make it one of the best hybrid choices on the market.
From a technical standpoint, this compact SUV is equipped with a 4-cylinder 2.5-litre gasoline engine and two electric motors. No concession on power: this combination develops 221 horsepower and 155 lb-ft of torque.
The electric motors power a 14.4-kWh battery that alone offers a range of 61 km, even more than Ford had announced. Longer trips are no problem, since in hybrid mode, the model can travel up to 724 km on a single tank and a single charge! Speaking of recharging, a 240-volt outlet allows the car to recharge in only 3.5 hours.
Another obvious reason to choose the Plug-in Hybrid is, of course, its ecological aspect. Of course, fuel consumption varies depending on the mode you use (electric, hybrid or gas). However, it averages 5.4 L/100 km in the city and 5.8 L/100 km combined.
Not only will the Ford Escape Plug-In take you far, it will get you there with all the gear and luggage you need to take along. The battery is conveniently positioned to maximize cargo space while providing plenty of room for all passengers. The trunk can hold up to 869 litres of cargo, not including the extra space provided by the folding seats.
What’s certain is that your whole family will adopt it, thanks to its many built-in conveniences and technologies. From eight cup holders to the foot-activated power liftgate and the fascinating optional panoramic sunroof, the manufacturer has thought of everything.
An easy-to-use infotainment system, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility and available GPS is also included. Audiophiles will also be delighted by the Titanium version of the Bang&Olufsen 10-speaker audio system with a subwoofer.
Finally, every time you put your hands on the steering wheel, you’ll have the peace of mind that you’re safe on your way to your destination. The standard Ford Co-Pilot360 Package gives you all the driver assistance technologies you need to avoid a lot of damage. From blind spot and forward collision detection to independent emergency braking, rearview camera and more, you’ll be able to drive with confidence.
The Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid is the sum of all the qualities you can look for in an SUV. In addition to offering power, space and comfort, it offers an impressive range and fuel consumption that is not only good for the planet, it also is for your wallet.
