Some car buyers have always considered fuel economy a top priority in the search for a new vehicle. But with the increasing popularity of hybrids and electric vehicles combined with fluctuating costs at the pump, the topic has received more widespread attention. Now, more drivers than ever are placing efficiency at the top of their list of concerns.
At Ford of Queens, we strive to serve the automotive needs of as many drivers as possible. So, we're pleased to offer a range of Ford models—both gas and battery-powered—that achieve an EPA-estimated 25 mpg or higher in city driving. Here's a look at a few popular examples:
- Ford Escape: The versatile Ford Escape offers spacious accommodations and generous cargo capacity while achieving an EPA-estimated 28 mpg city in its standard 1.5-liter turbo-three configuration.
- Ford Escape Hybrid: The Escape's available Atkinson-cycle hybrid powertrain increases horsepower over the base engine from 181 to 200 while improving its mpg rating to 44 city. Additionally, the Escape Plug-in Hybrid boasts an EPA-estimated 105 MPGe and 37 miles of electric-only range.
- Ford Bronco Sport: The adventure-ready smaller sibling of the legendary Bronco 4x4, the Ford Bronco Sport comes standard with four-wheel-drive and still gets an EPA-estimated 25 mpg in the city.
- Ford Explorer Hybrid: Three-row midsize SUVs aren't typically selected for their efficiency. But if you need additional seatbelts for your larger family, the Ford Explorer offers an efficient hybrid powertrain that gets an EPA-estimated 27 mpg in the city in its RWD configuration.
- Ford Mustang Mach-E: Ford's electric pony car/crossover delivers driving excitement and impressive efficiency. In its most efficient configuration, the all-electric Mach-E achieves an in-city rating of 110 miles-per-gallon equivalent (MPGe).
- Ford Maverick: A pickup for drivers who never knew they wanted one, the Ford Maverick launched to much fanfare for its practical utility and standard hybrid engine. At 42 mpg (EPA-est.), it delivers better fuel economy than most small cars.
