At low speeds often traveled in city driving, the Escape Hybrid can be powered solely by the electric motor at speeds up to 40 mph, saving fuel. The available Intelligent 4WD System provides enhanced traction under any conditions, on or off the road. The new Escape Hybrid Limited features bright chrome accents, machined aluminum wheels, and even a power moonroof in its list of luxury features. Acceleration with the 2.5L Atkinson cycle I4 engine and electric motor combined is similar to what you'd experience with a V6 engine. Chrome upper/lower grille treatment is among the many special styling cues of the new Escape Hybrid Limited model.
