The
new 2008 2009 Ford Escape Hybrid will offer improved fuel economy and an
increased range of driving of 400 to 500 miles per tank. Also the
new Escape Hybrid will offer better acceleration which Ford claims
will feel like a V6 using it's I4 engine.
One
of the nice things about the new Ford Escape Hybrid is reduced emissions,
the new Hybrid meets strict SULEV and Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle
standards. The Hybrid Electric Vehicle combines a chemically fueled
internal combustion engine. The new engine offers a shutoff at idle
which eliminates fuel waste when engine is not needed and a regenerative
braking system, this system will use an electric motor or alternator
to divert gas engine power from the wheels to recharge the battery
during steady speed cruising.
The
new 2008 2009 Ford Escape Series Hybrid engine is an internal combustion
engine that charges the battery through the electric motor or through
a generator, the gas engine does not directly drive the vehicle and
the regenerative breaking is used to supplement battery charging.
A Parallel Hybrid is both gas and electric, motors are connected to
the drive train and an internal combustion engine can be downsized
because of an electric motor which augments performance. The Split
Hybrid combines the benefits of both the series and parallel systems
through the use of a planetary gearset.
A great
gas and environment saver! The new 2008 2009 Ford Escape Hybrid promises
to be a big seller due to the improvements in the Hybrid engine.
