"Ford Fiesta" and "Ford Focus" with the "hybrid" version

The Ford Fiesta is one of the best-selling models in Europe, and the best-selling in the UK for at least a decade. Ford has decided that this model will also work with electricity. A day ago, the company announced that it will release the new models of Ford Fiesta and Ford Focus with the "hybrid" version.

They will not be fully electric, but they will reduce fuel consumption and have more power, the manufacturers say. These new models will have an electric motor that will help power the vehicle, along with a gasoline engine.

But unlike a full-hybrid car like the Toyota Prius, the battery in the Fiesta and Focus models won't be able to keep the engine running on its own, even for short distances. For this reason, these cars will be called "mild hybrid".

Currently, only the Ford Mondeo is the only model of this company that has a hybrid engine. The new Fiesta and Focus EcoBoost Hybrid will be introduced next year. /tvklan.al
