Around Metro Detroit, Ford's hybrid and electric cars, trucks, and SUVs put advanced fuel-saving technology within reach. Whether they're operating in electric mode, gas mode or a combination of both, these vehicles optimize efficiency and simplicity. Ford's all-electric side is led by the Mustang Mach-E, an electric SUV, and the E-Transit, an all-electric cargo van built for work, while the hybrid side covers the F-150 and the Maverick. Explore the full lineup below, then browse what is on the ground at our electric Ford dealer in Clinton Township, MI.
The Family of Ford Hybrid
and Electric Vehicles
Our staff is EV Certified, which matters more than it sounds: Ford requires that warranty work on an electric vehicle's high-voltage battery be carried out by an EV Certified dealership. We are ready to help with any question, before or after you buy.
Which Kind of Electrified Ford Fits You
Ford builds three different kinds of electrified vehicle, and the right one depends on how far you drive and whether you can plug in. Here is the short version:
| Question | All-electric (BEV) | Hybrid (HEV) | Plug-in hybrid (PHEV) |
|---|---|---|---|
| How is it powered? | Battery only, no gas engine | Gas engine assisted by an electric motor | Larger battery and electric motor, plus a gas engine |
| Do you plug it in? | Yes, always | No, it charges itself | Yes, to get the electric range |
| Electric-only driving | The whole trip | About 1 to 2 miles at low speed | Roughly 10 to 40 miles |
| Do you still buy gas? | Never | Yes | Yes, once the electric range runs out |
| Current Ford models | Mustang Mach-E, E-Transit | F-150 PowerBoost, Maverick Hybrid | See the plug-in hybrid section below |
All Electric - Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV)
Powered by an electric battery, a Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) has no gas engine parts and runs solely on electricity. BEVs are frequently known as an Electric Vehicle (EV). Unlike a regular gas engine a BEV needs to be plugged in to charge the battery.
All Ford BEVs are capable of fast charging making it easier for the owner to charge and be on the road in no time.
BEVs are zero emissions vehicles and do not generate any harmful tailpipe emissions or air pollution hazards caused by traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. These all-electric vehicles from Ford offer an efficient and exhilarating driving experience. Two lead the lineup: the Mustang Mach-E, an all-electric SUV rated up to 320 miles of range on the rear-drive Extended Range battery, and the E-Transit, an all-electric cargo van rated up to 159 miles with the Enhanced Range battery.
When choosing to make the move to a Battery Electric Vehicle keep in mind that there are minimal scheduled maintenance costs, zero vehicle emissions, available tax incentives and plenty of other incentives that make for a seamless switch into electric energy. Ford also makes it easier by offering a network of simple charging methods whether you're at home or on the road.

Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV)
Unlike the Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV), a Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) is a low-emission vehicle that uses an electric motor to assist the gas-powered engine. A Hybrid switches between the two, or sometimes a combination of both, to optimize your drive. This makes a hybrid vehicle a great option for city drivers.
The gas engine and regenerative braking recharges the battery, which doesn't need to be plugged in.
Ford hybrid vehicles feature innovative and intelligent technology for exceptional driving convenience. The current Ford hybrid lineup is led by the F-150 with the PowerBoost full-hybrid V6, which pairs full-size truck capability with hybrid efficiency, and the Maverick Hybrid, a compact pickup rated 42 city / 35 highway / 38 combined MPG in front-drive form. For a Metro Detroit commute with a job site at the end of it, either one saves fuel without asking you to change how you drive.

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV)
Similar to a Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV), the Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) is equipped with a larger battery and electric motor. A PHEV needs to be plugged in to charge the battery but can also recharge its battery through regenerative braking.
While regular hybrids can travel 1-2 miles at a low speed before the gasoline engine turns on, PHEVs can go anywhere from 10-40 miles before their gas engines provide assistance.
If a PHEV's all-electric range is drained, the PHEV acts as a regular hybrid and can travel on a tank of gasoline. With features like these, Plug-in hybrids offer the best of both worlds. You can drive in electric mode while having the peace of mind of a gas-engine backup when you need it. PHEVs also feature convenient plug-in charging to extend your all-electric range. Plug-in hybrids come and go from the Ford lineup as models change over, so the surest way to see whether a plug-in is available right now, new or pre-owned, is to check the current inventory or ask our team. If a plug-in is not on the ground, a Ford hybrid gives you much of the same everyday fuel saving with nothing to plug in.

Being EV Certified matters most after you buy. Ford requires that warranty work on an electric vehicle's high-voltage battery be done at an EV Certified dealership, and our factory-trained technicians handle that here rather than sending you elsewhere. Our on-site collision center is here too, which matters more on an electric vehicle than most people expect, since a repair has to account for the high-voltage system and the aluminum body panels Ford uses.
Not set on a brand-new one? A certified pre-owned Ford can include hybrids and electric models, and Ford's EV Certified tier adds an inspection built around battery health. Before you come in, it is also worth checking the current lease specials and finance offers, since hybrid and electric models are often included.

Ford's all-electric side is the Mustang Mach-E, an electric SUV, and the E-Transit, an all-electric cargo van. On the hybrid side, the F-150 is offered with the PowerBoost full-hybrid V6, and the Maverick comes as a hybrid compact pickup. See what is in stock now in our EV inventory or hybrid inventory.
Ford has discontinued the all-electric F-150 Lightning, and we no longer sell it new. The gas F-150 is very much current, and if you want a truck with electrified efficiency, the F-150 with the PowerBoost full-hybrid V6 is the one to look at. Ask our team and we will walk you through the difference.
Plug-in hybrid availability changes as Ford's models turn over, so the honest answer is to check what is on the ground rather than trust a page. Browse the hybrid and plug-in inventory or ask us what is available, new or pre-owned. If no plug-in is in stock, a regular Ford hybrid delivers much of the same day-to-day fuel saving with nothing to plug in.
Often, yes, though the specific deals change month to month. Check the current lease specials and finance offers to see what applies to the model you are considering.
