Red Light
Beaucoup plus facile de rester embourber dans le "banc de neige" car le moteur électrique est trop fougueux et difficile à contrôler. Les pneus (même d'hiver) ont tendances beaucoup plus à patiner. Comme je n'ai qu'un véhicule 2RM je crois que cela est un facteur déterminant. Juste pour cela, je prendrais un 4RM si c'était à refaire. 2e point, je me demande (j'aimerais bien voir un essais sur piste comme RPM le propose) si les distances de freinages ne sont pas un peu allongés à cause du système de récupération d'énergie au freinage. Il me semble que ce n'est pas comme un véhicule avec ABS standard. Je n'ai pas eu d'accident jusqu'à maintenant mais je serais curieux de comparer la distance de freinage d'un Escape régulier face à un Hybrid. C'est peut-être juste une fausse impression puisqu'on ne sent pas du tout l'ABS au freinage.
Yellow Light
NE PAS FAIRE INSTALLER de Boomrang car il "bouffe" trop la batterie et des problèmes électriques surviennent. Il ne faut pas oublier qu'en ville, le moteur ne fonctionne pas la moitié du temps, ce qui est dure sur votre batterie, spécialement de soir quand les lumières sont allumé. Après 1 seul hiver (acheté neuf en 2007) déjà je remarque de la rouille sous la peinture à deux endroits (petites bosses). Quelque chose à surveiller. J'ai eu des problèmes à deux reprises avec un module électronique contrôlant des lumières intérieurs et extérieurs. Je ne sais pas si c'est un problème redondant sur ce modèle mais comme la réparation n'a rien couté, c'est plus une perte de temps que d'autre chose. Dernier point, il est (ou était pour la première hiver) difficile de trouver des pneus qui fonts sur ce modèle car ce n'est pas la même grandeur que l'Escape régulier. Même si l'on veut compensser avec une autre grandeur c'est un problème.
Green Light
Économie d'essence assuré. Par contre la moyenne combiné ville/autoroute se situe plus aux alentours de 8 L/100km (il ne faut pas oublier qu'il y a souvent une charge utile à l'intérieur). En ville, l'économie est extraordinaire. Les accélération sont excellente mais au détriment de la consommation. Si on veut qu'il reste électrique jusqu'à 45 km/h, il faut être TRÈS doux sur l'accélératuer. Il vaut la peine d'investir pour un hybrid spécialement si votre km annuel est supérieur à 30,000 km car à ce moment, l'économie de carburant paye automatiquement le surplus sur votre mensualité. Pour ma part, je calcule sauver entre $150 et $200 par mois en frais de carburant (40 à 50% moins cher que ma Grand Caravan 2004). Dernier point, la tenue de route est excellente avec une grande visibilité et il est très agréable à conduire sur courte ou longue distance.
Review:
J'aurais aimé avoir ce genre de détails au moment de faire mon choix mais comme les Hybrid étaient nouveaux, peu de gens avaient ce genre de véhicule. J'espère que mon expérience aidera de futurs acheteurs dans leurs décisions.
J'avais beaucoup d'appréhension avant l'achat mais je dois dire que je ne suis pas déçu du tout malgré les 2 ou 3 points faibles (quels véhicules n'en ont pas?), c'est un excellent véhicule jusqu'à présent (45,000 km au compteur).

Red Light
très gourmand en pétrole.
Yellow Light
aurait besoin d'un volant télescopique car, pour quelqu'un de grande taille, il devient difficile de trouver une position de conduite. l'assise des sièges avant est trop courte, donc pas assez de support au niveau des cuisses. Aurait aimer avoir le controle sur le choix entre 2 ou 4 roue motrices plutôt qu'avoir un 4RM qui s'active au besoin.
