Ford Escape Hybrid Electric Vehicle on Track for All-Time Record Sales on Eve of Earth Day

24 April 2006

Ford Motor Company announced today that the Escape Hybrid is expected to post its highest sales month ever, following increased marketing initiatives, increased tax relief, and increased consumer environmental awareness.

In February, Ford introduced a national marketing campaign to increase consumer awareness of the benefits of the Escape Hybrid, partnering with Kermit the Frog. In March, Ford also introduced zero percent financing for up to 60 months, to further encourage growth of this important technology.

In April, Ford launched a new hybrid tax hotline, to help educate consumers about the federal, state and local government tax incentives available to Ford hybrid customers. Some consumers can save as much as $6,000 as a result of tax relief on both the Ford Escape Hybrid and Mercury Mariner Hybrid. According to the dealer hotline statistics, the top places to own an Escape Hybrid currently are West Virginia, Colorado, Oregon and Louisiana.

Ford was the first manufacturer to introduce a full hybrid SUV. The Hybrid Escape is the most fuel-efficient SUV on earth, returning 36 miles per gallon on the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) city cycle.
