Introducing the 100 MPGe Ford Focus EV
Published Wednesday, 11 January, 2012 by Blog Admin. Categories: New Inventory, Green, News.
When it comes to fuel-efficient vehicles, Ford leads the pack, with over a third of the new Ford lineup consisting of vehicles rated at 40 MPG or higher. And with their latest development, the Ford Focus EV, the first Ford vehicle to reach triple-digit efficiency is ready to hit the streets. The gasoline-free Focus is now on the books as the first five-passenger electric vehicle to hit the 100 MPGe mark.
Now available for pre-order, the Ford Focus EV will also boast the fastest EV charging time among competition. Not only is the charging time of the Focus half that of the Leaf, the automaker expects that this will allow drivers to more than double their driving range on a busy day of recharging and driving.
But this is just a small part of Ford's commitment to fuel efficient vehicles, with many traditionally powered models exceeding 40 miles-per-gallon, on top of the forthcoming C-MAX Hybrid and C-MAX Energi plug-in hybrid. According to a press release from Ford, this is all part of the greater plan "to give fuel-efficiency minded customers the Power of Choice."1
"The Focus Electric is a shining example of the leading fuel-economy Ford is offering for each new vehicle, " says Derrick Kuzak, Group VP, Global Product Development, "Whether people want a hybrid, plug-in hybrid or full battery-electric vehicle, we have a family of vehicles for them to consider. proving a range of options to best meet their needs and support their driving habits and lifestyles."2
