Hybrid Escape vs. Gas Escape

2009-ford-escape-battle.jpgLast month we offered a bumper to bumper hybrid Ford Escape versus hybrid Toyota Highlander comparison and quickly learned that an equally large number of people are interested in the differences between same model gas vs. hybrid sport utilities.

For example, if you’ve decided to buy a new Ford Escape, but now you are also considering the hybrid model, you’re probably asking yourself if escaping to the green side is worth the extra, well, green. While both SUVs look nearly identical when you are more than about 15 feet away, a closer look reveals their hidden differences.

Hybrid Vehicle Comparison Tools

Whether you are comparing price, gas mileage, towing capacity, seating options, or any number of specifications – it’s most helpful when you don’t have to switch back and forth between 2 or more reviews or test drives.

When you are researching hybrids, there are several comparison websites that can make the process a little easier. Below is an overview of a few that might be of interest.

Hybrid SUVs: Best of Both Worlds

why-buy-a-hybrid-suv.jpgHybrid sport utility vehicles may be the best overall choice for consumers and auto manufacturers alike. While there are plenty of groups and individuals who would profess quite the opposite opinion, each time I go looking for a new vehicle (or a new, used vehicle) I come to the same conclusion. Hybrid SUVs end up at the top of my list.

Without question, you have lots of options when it comes to buying an automobile. Not only are there cars, trucks, vans, and SUVs – but there are a multitude of choices within each vehicle category (small, fuel efficient, all wheel drive, luxury, sporty, fast) and the list goes on and on.
