2004 Ford Escape Hybrid Preview

What is well dressed, ice blue, sports around 200-horsepower, gets nearly 5.9 L/100 km (40 mpg) with almost 50% fewer CO2 emissions, looks sharper and has more gadgets than James Bond in a tuxedo (OK, maybe it's only equal to that last one)? The 2004 Ford Escape Hybrid SUV. Yes, a hybrid electric SUV, the first of its kind driving its way into our lives within the next year.
