2010 Ford Escape Hybrid review from North America
"Delightful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
None.
General comments?
All around excellent execution in engineering and mfg/assy.
Driving mostly city with a current tank average miles per gallon of 34.6 (MPG).
Patience and light touch on throttle optimizes electric run time.
eCVT transmission is flawless and the vehicle shifts from electric-to-gas or gas-to-electric very smoothly. Well executed design.
