For 2011, Escape Hybrid is expected to continue its claim as Americas most fuelefficient and environmentally friendly SUV, based on EPA estimates of 34 mpg city and 31 mpg highway. Hybrid models use a 2.5-liter I-4 designed to run on the Atkinson combustion cycle. An advanced engine processor enables nearly imperceptible transitions between gas and electric vehicle mode, and the Hybrid also features a powertrain damping system to reduce vibrations and feedback to the driver and other occupants. The Escape Hybrid Limited is packaged for environmentally conscious buyers who still want a full complement of accessories and equipment. Along with its gas counterpart, the Limited features 16-inch bright machined aluminum wheels and exterior chrome accents, a standard six-speaker audio system, chrome and ebony interior touches, and a luxury and convenience package that includes ambient lighting, heated front leather seats, a power moonroof, Reverse Sensing System, rear view camera system and universal garage door opener.
