I would think that would be the case . . . having a bigger battery. We will just have to wait and see. As it is now, I'm extremely happy with my hybrid Lariat. Perfect vehicle for me in many ways.

They have a PHEV AWD Escape, so why not the Maverick? I was intrigued by the PHEV Ranger but it will be probably what, $10,000 more for comparable equipped vehicle....
Yeah I just don’t get the PHEV thing to be honest. Maybe in a one car household where charging at home is available.
Two cars then I think either two hybrids or a hybrid and EV.
PHEV cost more than hybrid at purchase. Typically taking a several years in gas savings to make up for the difference. When you are running on gas the mpg is generally less than the hybrid mpg. Then you also have the maintenance that a ICE or hybrid would have.
I do think the AWD would be a nice addition to the hybrid Mav however.

Not sure What you're speaking of. It looks pretty clear that it's on the website
The ST-Line and Platinum hybrids are regular, non-plug-in hybrids. The PHEV is its own level.
And when you look at a Plug-In Hybrid you see that it is FWD only.

But it says you can add it as an option as far as the all-wheel driveThe ST-Line and Platinum hybrids are regular, non-plug-in hybrids. The PHEV is its own level.

Well it'll be interesting to see what is delivered cuz that's what the dealership ordered. Thank you
Batteries have come down so much in price that the cost difference between a hybrid battery and a smaller PHEV battery is only a few hundred dollars.
A hybrid already has 99% of the parts to be a PHEV, companies that really jack up the PHEV price either are doing a cash grab or are sticking in an excessively large battery for a PHEV .
