Ford's Available Hybrid
and All-Electric Vehicles
As more and more Americans are switching over to electric vehicles, the big names in the business are beefing up their lineups. For decades Ford has been producing reliable and popular vehicles.
Now, the company is jumping into the hybrid and electric car segment of the market. Between the all-electric F-150 Lightning and the hybrid Explorer, Ford has an electric or hybrid vehicle that fits anyone's needs.
Hybrid and Electric Pickup Trucks
For the 2022 model year Ford is introducing a hybrid pickup truck and an all-electric one. The 2022 Ford Maverick is the country's first hybrid-standard pickup. This compact model is incredibly modular; Do-It-Yourselfers will love this truck. It uses gasoline but pairs this with an electric motor to achieve great fuel economy.
The 2022 Ford F-150 Lightning is, similarly, poised to be the first all-electric pickup from Ford. It does not use gasoline at all, instead relying solely on electricity. That said, this truck is still as durable and work-ready as the standard F-150!
Hybrid SUVs from Ford
Ford's popular compact SUV, the Escape, is available as two different kinds of hybrids. The first is the long-standing version: it uses gasoline and an on-board battery to maximize fuel efficiency. The battery is charged by the normal operation of the car. The other version is the plug-in: this vehicle takes gasoline, but can also be plugged in to recharge the battery. This means that the Escape hybrid can rely even more on electrical power, increasing its efficiency.
If the compact Escape is too small for your needs, then the Ford Explorer hybrid is the way to go. This car is a full-sized SUV that is nonetheless available as a standard hybrid! It is designed for adventure between its off-roading capabilities and towing capacity, which is 5,000 pounds.
The Other All-Electric Models
A pair of other cars rounds out Ford's new hybrid and electric lineup. The Mustang Mach-E is patterned after the world-famous Ford Mustang, but it is all-electric. It is still a wickedly fast performance vehicle, however. Heads will turn everywhere you drive in this sleek beast.
Ford is also driving electric car adoption in the commercial market. It is offering an all-electric cargo van, the 2022 E-Transit. This vehicle is as customizable as other cargo van options. It is available with normal, long, and elongated back ends, or as a cutout or chassis model if you want to build the van yourself. No matter what options you pick for the design of the E-Transit, it will be fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly!
Conclusion
Ford has leapt headlong into meeting Americans' demand for hybrid and electric vehicles. Thankfully, these new trucks, SUVs, and other cars are still built to last, and to perform well.
