The Ford Escape Hybrid combines a gasoline engine with an electric motor to optimize fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. The system uses regenerative braking to capture energy during braking and recharge the battery, which powers the electric motor during low-speed driving or assists the gasoline engine for better acceleration. The hybrid system automatically switches between the electric motor and the gasoline engine based on driving conditions, allowing for seamless transitions and improved overall efficiency. This design provides drivers with a balance of power and fuel economy.
