The range for EV driving is actually 10 to 12 miles per charge, much less than the advertised 20 miles per charge. There is no truck space. The climate control is bad and the windshield fogs over all the time unless you keep the defroster on the time. Other car manufacturers have better technology than the Energy. The original purchase price is very high for what you really get, and resale is terrible. Resale 2 months after purchase is about 1/2 the original price.

I really love this car. Honestly, I wanted the HOV stickers for commuting. I have owned Audis. BMWs, and Acuras. The interior of this car is every bit as good as those luxury vehicles....perhaps even better. It handles very well. Super smooth ride. I might be driving a Ford, but it looks and feels like a BMW

Electrical and programming issues

At first this car was great until the brain went out. When I say brain I mean the center console navigation controls everything. It has the rear view camera,controls Bluetooth, ac unit radio so basically all the electrical components. It went out and dealership cannot repair it. My car has been in the shop three weeks now. If you want to pay for a vehicle that spends alot of time in the shop I recommend this car. If not buy a Hyundai or Kia cause they have a great warranty plan. Ford Corporate and finance we're no help at all. All you get is the run around because it's a electric vehicle and dealerships only have one technican at each facility that work on these vehicles. I'm a very frustrated and unhappy customer.

I have had this car for a year and a half. I bought it used in good condition. There are a couple of things that annoy me enough to write a review about and consider trading it in. 1. I bought the car online and did not realize the trunk space is a joke! The hybrid battery takes up nearly the entire trunk leaving no room for groceries/stuff. 2. The buttons for the gas and electric ports are extremely touchy and in a weird spot so I’m constantly touching them by accident and popping the gas and electric port covers open. 3. The electric plug in feature is a joke in the winter time and only gets about 2 miles in the winters where I live. Also, ground clearance is low so the car has a very difficult time in the snow. I only recommend this car for a summer commuter driver or if you live somewhere that it is warm and doesn’t snow much. 4. Acceleration is good and the leather seats are comfortable with decent leg room. 5. Does not come with an actual tire changing kit, I don’t recommend this vehicle if you live in the country as I got stuck waiting 4 hours on the side of the highway because I couldn’t change the tire since it doesn’t even have space in the trunk for a spare donut tire and comes with a ridiculous slime kit that is not adequate. 6. My recommendation for this vehicle is that it is a good commuter vehicle for someone who lives in a warm climate, does not need trunk space. Lives in a city as city fuel mileage is excellent. This is a nice looking comfortable car for city commuting in the summer. Beyond that, it’s not suitable.
