A hybrid vehicle is a vehicle that’s powered by a traditional gasoline engine that also features a battery-powered electric motor that’s available to assist the engine. This combination delivers increased efficiency without any compromises on vehicle range.
Current Ford Hybrid models include:
Escape SE Hybrid, Explorer Platinum (shown), F-150 Powerboost, and Maverick
PHEV stands for Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle. This type of vehicle builds on the concept of a hybrid through its ability to drive using solely electric power from the onboard battery. Unlike a traditional hybrid, a PHEV can be plugged into an electrical source to recharge the battery. Think of it as a middle ground between a hybrid and a pure electric vehicle.

No matter if you’re trying to say goodbye to spending money at the gas station or you’re looking to experience unbridled thrills behind the wheel – listed below are some of the most impressive perks that come from driving a Ford EV.
Lower Cost of Ownership Save on fuel costs and embrace more mountain trips. Recharge at home or explore Colorado's growing public charging network, you’ll never have to visit a gas station to purchase fuel again. In addition, EVs have significantly lower maintenance costs due to the fact that they don’t require oil changes and have far fewer moving parts than a conventional vehicle.
Environmental Benefits Due to the fact that electric vehicles operate with zero tailpipe emissions. As you explore the Rockies or embark on hiking adventures, drive with the satisfaction of knowing your EV contributes to a cleaner, greener Colorado.
Smooth, Serene Driving Characteristics Silent mountain drives? Yes, please! Enjoy the smooth and quiet driving experience of an electric vehicle, perfect for taking in Colorado's breathtaking scenery. Thanks to their electric powertrains, an EV cannot be beaten when it comes to delivering a driving experience that’s both smooth and quiet. From both inside the cabin and outside of the vehicle, no other type of vehicle can match an electric vehicle when it comes to refinement.
Instantaneous Acceleration When you step on the accelerator of an EV, you’ll experience instant response and immediate torque delivery. Since there’s no lag time and significantly fewer moving parts to experience power delays, all-electric vehicles now offer exhilaration and thrilling performance that their conventional counterparts can’t match.
If you're eyeing an electric vehicle in the vibrant city of Denver, charging worries are a thing of the past. Ford electric vehicles now present an array of charging solutions tailored for Denverites on the move. Whether you're cruising the city streets or embarking on a weekend adventure to the Mountains, charging your Ford EV is a breeze. Opting for a new Ford EV gives you exclusive access to the Blue Oval™ Charge Network—the largest public charging network in North America offered by automotive manufacturers. In addition to public charging station access, Ford EVs offer solutions for charging at home. So, gear up for your Denver-centric journeys, knowing that your Ford EV is ready to power you through every mile of this lively city and its scenic surroundings.
Level 1 Charging Included with virtually all EVs is a Level 1 EVSE charging cable. This cable allows you to charge your vehicle using a standard 120-volt household outlet. The downside to this convenience is the slow charging time, usually no more than 2 to 5 miles of range gained per hour. Level 1 charging is intended primarily for emergency situations or topping off a vehicle that’s parked overnight.
Level 2 Charging For the ultimate way to keep your EV fully charged and ready for the day’s journey, Level 2 charging is the best household solution. Using a dedicated Level 2 charging station in your garage or driveway, you can typically add between 10 and 60 miles of EV range per hour. It’s important to remember that Level 2 stations require 240-volt electrical service in order for them to be installed. Ford offers a list of qualified installers who will ensure that your charging station complies with local, state, and national regulations.
Level 3 Charging Also known as DC Fast Charging, Level 3 charging takes advantage of high-powered 480-volt power to restore your EV battery rapidly. Fast charging stations are found across the growing Blue OvalTM Charge Network of stations located near high-traffic areas like rest stops, shopping centers, or office complexes.
Charging is easy both at home and on the road.
