The Escape Hybrid or Mariner Hybrid vehicles use a conventional gasoline engine in addition to an electric motor to power the vehicle. The energy used to power the vehicle comes from gasoline (used by the internal combustion engine) and electricity (used by the electric motor). • Gasoline is stored in a traditional fuel tank. • Electricity is stored in a high-voltage battery pack.

The combination of a gasoline engine and electric motor provides for improved performance (V6 performance with a 4-cylinder engine and electric motor), reduced emissions and improved fuel economy. The high-voltage system is self contained, never needing to be plugged into an electrical outlet for recharging. The system incorporates a generator that recharges the batteries during cruising and braking.
