The Exciting Ford New Car Model Range
The Ford New Van Model Range
Mild Hybrid (MHEV)
Mild Hybrid vehicles have two sources of power, a conventional engine and a battery driven electric motor. The electric motor does not power the car, it assists it.
Hybrid (HEV)
Hybrid vehciles have two sources of power. They automatically switch between the conventional engine and the electric power engine depending on speed.
Plug-in Hybrid (PHEV)
Plug-in Hybrids have two sources, similar to Hybrid vehicles. The batteries are larger, allowing you to travel further on electric power. The need to be plugged in to charge.
All-Electric (BEV)
All-electric vehicles are powered purely by electricity, they do not have a conventional engine. They need charging before you can drive anywhere and only run off of a battery.

We're here to help you navigate the exciting new landscape of Electric and Hybrid vehicles.
We'll tell you what you need to know, what the benefits are, and we'll help extinguish some common misconceptions along the way. See our selection of articles below to help you find your way.
A hybrid vehicle combines two or more power sources, typically an internal combustion engine and an electric motor. It can switch between these power sources to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions.
An electric vehicle, or EV, is a type of vehicle that is powered by electricity stored in a battery. It does not rely on internal combustion engines like traditional petrol or diesel vehicles.
Charging times vary depending on the charger's power level and the EV's battery capacity. Level 1 chargers (standard household outlets) can take overnight, while Level 2 chargers (240V) can take a few hours. DC fast chargers can provide a substantial charge in around 30 minutes.
EVs use electricity stored in high-capacity batteries to power an electric motor. When you plug the EV into a charging station, it recharges the battery, which then provides energy to propel the vehicle.
Initially, EVs can be more expensive due to the cost of the battery. However, lower operating and maintenance costs, as well as potential government incentives, can make them cost-competitive over time.
All Electric car lifespan varies but is generally similar to or longer than traditional petrol or diesel cars. Electric vehicle (EV) batteries can degrade over time, affecting range, but most modern EVs are designed for long-term use.
The range of an EV varies depending on the make and model. Most modern EVs can travel between 100 and 300 miles on a single charge. Advances in battery technology are continually improving range.
Pros: Fuel efficiency, reduced emissions, potential cost savings on fuel, regenerative braking, smooth and quiet operation. Cons: Higher upfront cost, limited all-electric range, dependence on fuel, potential battery replacement costs.
Yes, hybrid cars have both a petrol engine and an electric motor, so you will need to use petrol to fuel the engine.
Non-plug-in hybrid cars do not require charging. They charge their batteries through regenerative braking and the gasoline engine. For a Plug-in Hybrid, this will depend on the range of the vehicle and how much electric charge you would like to use for your journey.
