2006 Ford Escape Hybrid...most efficient SUV on the planet

fuel-conscious

Pros

environmentally friendly, drives well, roomy w/o dominating the road

JUN

2008

I traded in a gas engine V-G Escape (2002) for the Hybrid version. I liked the V-6 in every respect but gas mileage...I was getting 17-18 city driving. In this respect the Hybrid has been great. I have the AWD vesrion and am averaging 29+ MPG even with ethanol gas. I've had some problems...ABS master unit and AC compressor were replaced under warranty. The Hybrid is much quieter and seems to have better interior materials than the 2002. Negatives? Towing, if that is an issue,....1000 lbs max and the fact the AC only rus when the gas engine is running...tough during Florida summers. If you need the practicality of a small SUV, but want good gas mileage and low emmissions, this is your choice.
