Ford Hybrid Engines

A hybrid engine combines an energy-efficient electric motor for when you need less power, with a gas engine for when you need more. You get the best of both worlds: exceptional performance and peace of mind.

What Are the Benefits of Hybrid Vehicles?

  • Ford Escape driving on an urban road.

    Gas and electric power come together to help you go farther on less fuel.*

    *Compared to a gas-only vehicle.

  • Two people load a Maverick truck bed.

    By using less fuel, your hybrid vehicle can produce lower tailpipe emissions on every drive.*

    *Compared to a gas-only vehicle.

  • F-150 parked on a dirt road.

    Adapt to city streets and highway speeds with smooth, responsive power.

Ideal for Your Urban Commute

Driving a hybrid feels just like driving a traditional gas-powered vehicle, but can offer the combined benefits of lower tailpipe emissions and improved fuel economy. With seamless transitions between the gas engine and electric motor, city driving can become even more efficient. Hybrid vehicles use a gas-powered engine to operate and regenerative braking to recharge, so they don’t rely on plug-in charging.

How Hybrids Work

Ford hybrid vehicles use intelligent technology to make driving easier and more convenient.

Right Power, Right Time

Hybrid technology intuitively switches between gas, electric, or a combination of both. The system automatically engages the electric motor when the gas engine isn't needed. This makes it a great option for stop-and-go urban driving.

Regenerative Braking

No waiting to recharge — your hybrid charges every time you slow down. Regenerative braking captures energy during braking and stores it in the battery, so you’re constantly powering up.  

Results may vary depending on driving habits.

Getting the Most out of Your Hybrid

  • F-150 towing a trailer on a two-lane highway.

    Hybrid vehicles combine an electric motor with a gasoline engine to deliver reliable performance. While your vehicle uses the electric motor whenever conditions allow, it works alongside the gas engine to improve fuel consumption and get you where you’re going for longer trips.

  • Ford Brake Coach Display feature on the in-vehicle screen.

    Did you know you could potentially recover around 90% of the energy spent during braking? Brake Coach will appear on screen every time your hybrid comes to a stop so that over time, it can help train you to brake in a way that makes the most out of the regenerative braking system.
