3 Ford Vehicles With Excellent Fuel Efficiency

Like other automakers, Ford offers a number of vehicles offering great gas mileage. However, it sets itself apart by combining its economical powertrains with stunning performance, lots of creature comforts, and cutting-edge technology. If fuel efficiency is high on your list when shopping for a new ride at your local Ford dealership, then you should definitely check out these models!

1. 2023 Ford Escape

This compact SUV offers several powerplants that promise to save you cash at the pump. The turbocharged options consist of a 180-hp 1.5L inline-3 and a 250-hp 2.0L inline-4, with respective highway fuel economies of 32 MPG and 31 MPG. There’s also a hybrid 2.5L inline-4 that produces a total of 192 hp while achieving 36 highway MPG. 210-hp plug-in hybrid models get a whopping 101 combined MPGe.

Despite its small size, the Escape’s attractive cabin can comfortably seat five people and provide over 40 inches of legroom for front and rear passengers. When the 60/40 split-folding seats are down, you can make use of up to 65.4 cubic feet of cargo space. The intuitive Sync 4 infotainment system offers wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot.

2. 2023 Ford Bronco Sport

As the legendary Bronco’s more compact sibling, the Bronco Sport is a true performer on rugged trails while achieving up to an EPA-rated 28 highway MPG. Buyers can choose between a 181-hp 1.5L inline-3 engine or a 250-hp 2.0L inline-4 that also produces 277 lb-ft of torque. The vehicle excels off-road with the help of an all-wheel drive system featuring several drive modes for different types of terrain.

The Bronco Sport’s cabin grants generous headroom thanks to its safari-style roof. The tall ceiling also means that you can fit especially large pieces of cargo, and there’s extra storage available in the form of a compartment hidden under the rear seats. Thanks to available rubberized mats and rear seats, the interior is very durable and easy to clean.

3. 2024 Ford Mustang

The iconic Mustang’s claim to fame may be its stirring performance, but its latest iteration can deliver surprisingly good efficiency, as well. At up to 33 MPG highway, the 2.3L turbo inline-4 will get you the most mileage while providing thrills with its 315 hp and 350 lb-ft of torque. Even the GT model’s powerful 480-hp 5.0L V8 provides 24 MPG highway. Quite impressive for a car with a 0 to 60 time of well under five seconds!

Inside, the new Mustang’s redesigned interior keeps the classic pony car feel while introducing advanced features. These include a 12.4-inch LCD digital cluster and an electronic parking brake that can be turned into a drift brake with the help of a track-oriented app that’s accessible from the touchscreen. Along with a choice of cloth and vinyl, ActiveX, or leather trim, the interior offers several striking color schemes like Carmine Red and Black Onyx.

As you can tell from this list, Ford boasts a varied lineup of efficient automobiles. Get in touch with Chestatee Ford today and we’ll be happy to set you up with a test drive!
