Spirit Lillis-O'Donnell Ford is committed to being a leader in providing our customers with a broad choice of electrified vehicles. By electrifying our entire range of vehicles, we’re not just imagining what tomorrow will look like. We’re already building it.
Our growing range of hybrid and electric passenger and commercial vehicles feature advanced fuel-saving technology. Whether they’re operating in electric mode, fuel mode or a combination of both, these vehicles optimize efficiency and simplicity.
If you’re considering making the switch to an electrified vehicle, then it’s important you understand the differences between them. More information on our passenger and commercialMild Hybrid, Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid and All-Electric Vehicles can be found below.
Ford all-electric vehicles run on battery power alone. Zero fuel. Zero emissions on the road. Go electric and reap the benefits with no more trips to the pump. Fewer moving parts than traditional vehicles meaning lower maintenance costs, tax reductions, emission zone benefit.
Plug-in Hybrid Vehicles (PHEV) have all the functionality of full Hybrid technology, with the added advantage that they can be charged from an external electricity supply. The larger capacity of the battery makes them capable of zero-emissions while driving with the ability to switch to Hybrid mode to conserve battery life and to petrol or diesel-only for longer journeys.
Hybrid Vehicles (HEV) have an internal combustion engine, but they also have a larger battery and more powerful motor. This provides more assistance to the engine and enables the vehicle to drive parts of short journeys at low speeds using the electric motor alone. The battery in a Hybrid Vehicle is recharged by a combination of regenerative braking and by the engine, not from plugging into a mains power source.
Mild Hybrid powertrains can be a cost-effective way to join the electric revolution. The internal combustion engine is assisted by an electric motor. At low speed, or when stationary, the engine can switch itself off and the 48V starter-generator seamlessly restarts when needed. Regenerative braking during coasting and braking automatically recharges the separate 48V Li-ion battery.
Ford Kuga Plug-In Hybrid
The sleek, spacious all-new Ford Kuga SUV Plug-In Hybrid has a distinctive design, a comprehensive electrified powertrain line-up and new driver assistance technology for the most efficient, comfortable and rewarding Kuga experience ever.
Offering the most electrified powertrain options of any Ford, improving efficiency by up to almost 30 per cent. Kuga Plug-In Hybrid delivers pure-electric driving and lets drivers choose when and how to deploy battery power with modes including EV Now.
The
comprehensive Kuga powertrain line-up includes Kuga Plug-In Hybrid, Kuga EcoBlue
Hybrid (mild hybrid) and Kuga Hybrid (full hybrid) variants, alongside Ford’s 2.0-litre
EcoBlue diesel, 1.5‑litre EcoBlue diesel and 1.5‑litre EcoBoost petrol
engines, and intelligent eight-speed automatic transmission.
Available In: Plug-In Hybrid, Mild Hybrid.
Ford Puma Mild Hybrid
The new Ford Puma introduces Ford’s advanced, fuelsaving mild-hybrid powertrain technology alongside class-leading practicality and head-turning
design for compact crossover customers.
Puma customers will be among the first to benefit from Ford’s mild-hybrid architecture – tailored
to enhance fuel efficiency while complementing Ford’s fun to drive experience with more
powerful and responsive performance.
In addition, customers can choose from advanced range of Ford EcoBoost petrol and Ford
EcoBlue diesel engines that are supported by standard Auto Start-Stop for further reduced
running costs, and a slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission.
Available In: Mild Hybrid
Ford Mondeo
The new Ford Mondeo Hybrid wagon delivers the driving range and freedom offered by a traditional combustion engine with the efficiency and refinement of an electric powertrain.
In both wagon and coupe-inspired four-door body styles, the self-charging Mondeo Hybrid is capable of pure electric driving and offers silent key start capability for refinement particularly in city and stop-start driving scenarios. The powertrain eliminates both range anxiety and the need for customers to use an external power source to charge the battery.
Regenerative braking technology captures up to 90 per cent of the energy normally lost during
braking to replenish the battery, contributing to anticipated CO2 emissions from 96 g/km and fuel
efficiency from 4.2 l/100 km for the four-door, and anticipated CO2 emissions from 101 g/km and
fuel efficiency from 4.4 l/100 km for the wagon.
Available In: Hybrid
Ford Tourneo Custom
Combining zero-emission driving capability and no range anxiety, the spacious eight-seat
Tourneo Custom Plug-In Hybrid is now available for test drive.
The Tourneo Custom Plug-In Hybrid’s front wheels are driven exclusively by an electric
motor/generator, powered by a 13.6 kWh lithium-ion battery pack. Ford’s multi-award-winning
1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine acts as a range extender, working alongside regenerative
braking enabled by the motor/generator to recharge the battery. The advanced hybrid
powertrain targets a zero-emission driving range of up to 50 km (31 miles) or 500 km
(310 miles) using the range extender.
Available in upscale Titanium specification, the new Tourneo Custom Plug-In Hybrid has been
engineered to provide superior levels of refinement and comfort.
