The Family of Ford Hybrid and Electric Vehicles


Ford hybrid and electric cars, trucks, and SUVs feature advanced fuel-saving technology. Whether they’re operating in electric mode, gas mode or a combination of both, these vehicles optimize efficiency and simplicity. The plug-in hybrid vehicles can be recharged in less than three hours using a 240-volt outlet. And now, there are all-electric vehicles in the Ford family— the Mustang Mach-E and F-150 Lightning. Reserve your Ford from our electric ford dealer in Clinton Township, MI.

All Electric, Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV):

Power 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 New all-electric vehicles from Ford offer an efficient and exhilarating driving experience. The energized performance can be seen in the Ford Mustang Mach-E, 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning, and 2023 Ford E-Transit. 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 Ford Hybrid lineup includes the Ford Fusion, Ford Escape, Ford Explorer, and the 2023 Ford Maverick.

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 PHEVs all-electric range is drained, the PHEV act as regular hybrid and can travel on a tank of gasoline. With features like these a 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. The Ford Fusion and the Ford Escape come in a PHEV option.
