Ford - The Leading American Edge In Hybrid Automobiles

Monday 17 February 2014

By Roberta R Sioshansi


We often hear one common quote "The constant thing in this world is change" not only from our elders, but also from marketers who want to sell an enhanced product. This saying is absolutely true and applicable when it comes to gadgets and automobiles in our market today. Who should use cellphones with antennas in our present time? Who is willing to ride in an old type of car without any windshield or side mirrors? Who is not in favor with innovations that benefit each consumer? Of course, everybody will agree about vehicle improvements like the proposed plan of the Ford Company.

One of the leading companies committed to high-quality service through vehicle production and distribution is Ford. We, consumers, are knowledgeable about its small and amazing cars such as Fiesta, Focus and C-MAX as well as their unique features. However, there are certain drawbacks that no one has wished for or even wanted in the first place. These built-in disadvantages might include long warm-up time, episodes of vehicle overheat, inability of the car to travel in rocky roads, the need for vehicle check and tune-ups and high-consumption of fuel.

On the other side of the story, the automaker added that Toyota Prius in United States has lowered five percent on the same period. Toyota sales down to 4.5 percent were also noted, but the company still held the title in Canada with retailed Prius Cs through the end of June while C-Max could gather just 757. According to Ford, almost 64 percent of C-MAX buyers came from various non-Ford types in June. This fact was actually the driving force of Lincoln to increase the production mix of Hybrid MKZ to 40 percent of MKZ, up from 20 percent.

Innovations and calibration updates have been started since August in the United States and Canada. Models such as the 2013 Ford C-MAX, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid received an enhanced inside and outside vehicle improvements made possible by the Ford automakers and owners. To make it into success, electric car engineering team by nearly 50 percent increase and $50 million dollar investments in high-class facilities for the expansions have been proposed.

To provide a clearer copy and understanding of these features, Raj gave the following detailed information: increased maximum pure electric speed to 85 mph from 62 mph, improved climate control system to minimize the use of the air-conditioning compressor and reduce the energy consumption, shortened engine warm-up time by 50 percent to enable electric-only driving and engine shutdown, lessened electric fans speed function of coolant temperature to decrease the fan's consumption of energy and optimized Active Grille consumption to reduce the aerodynamic drag under more driving and temperature conditions.
