In the smaller dash display, on the fuel efficiency info screen, Ford chose to abbreviate "electric" as "electr.". WTF? Looks like all it would take to display the entire word is one character. Interesting decision.

That is just one of many cost-cutting decisions Ford made to keep the price so low. :D

It would add extra weight and reduce mpg.
