Pros: What do you like about 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid?
It handles well and has good acceleration when asked. The ride is smooth and quiet inside though there is a surprising amount of engine noise to someone standing outside. Gas mileage on a commute that is a mix of highway and city is in the 32-34 mpg range.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid?
When on electric, the AC compressor is not running and so if you are not interested in the interior heating up uncomfortably, you have to switch to 'Max AC' which kicks the gas motor on all of the time including idle times. Similarly, the defroster requires the gas engine to be on even at idle and that is at odds with fuel efficiency. An electric compressor would have eliminated this situation. I would also have liked a toggle so that I could choose to run in electric mode only rather than hagving to feather the accelerator to keep the engine from kicking in at neighborhood/downtown speeds.

2007 Ford Escape Hybrid Review:
It was/is clealy the best choice for my needs with a wife who does not like riding "low" in a sedan on roads loaded with trucks, vans and SUV's.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid?
I love it when I'm sitting in bad traffic, and running on purely the electric engine. It's fun to drive, especially when just on the electric engine!

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Ford Escape Hybrid?
It would be nice to have a temperature gauge. The MPG info is not on target. While I do get good mileage, it's not as they claim.

2007 Ford Escape Hybrid Review:
Overall, we love it. When my friends with regular SUV's hear about my gas mileage, they are jealous. It turns and handles very nicely, has a decent sound system, and is a fun ride in general.

Love this car. I've averaged over 35 mpg on most trips. It is comfortable, reliable, fuel efficient, drives "tight" and is a real pleasure to drive. I own a more expensive foreighn other SUV, but I always prefer to pick up the keys and drive the Ford Escape Hybrid.
