Ford Escape Plug-in Hybrid

Every EPA figure for the 2020–2026 Ford Escape Plug-in Hybrid, and a calculator that turns them into your cost per mile — because the headline number on the window sticker is an average of two very different cars, weighted by a guess about your driving.

What it costs you

The EPA prints 40 MPG and 101 MPGe for this car, then blends them into 101 by assuming 66% of your miles run on electricity. Change that one assumption to match your life and the answer moves a long way. Nothing here is stored or sent anywhere.

Every model year

Straight from the EPA certification database, one row per year. "EPA assumes electric" is the combinedUF column — the share of miles the rating credits to the battery.

What drivers report

Owners who use the EPA's own My MPG tool have filed figures for this car. That is 8 people in total — small enough that these are anecdotes, not an average. They are here because they are the only owner-reported numbers that exist in public federal data, not because they settle anything.

2021 1 558.0 558–558

2025 1 113.5 113–113

Why some of these look impossible

Across the EPA's plug-in data, drivers have filed averages like 558 and even 1,174 MPG. Those are not typos. MPG is miles divided by gallons, and a plug-in owner who charges every night buys almost no gasoline — so the divisor approaches zero and the number runs away. MPG cannot describe a plug-in hybrid. That is the whole reason the calculator above works in cost per mile instead.

How this is worked out

Cost per mile is the only metric that survives a car with two fuel tanks:

cost per mile = electric share × (kWh/100mi ÷ 100 × price per kWh)
           + (1 − electric share) × (price per gallon ÷ gas-only MPG)

Your electric share is your daily electric miles divided by your daily miles, where daily electric miles is capped at the car's 37-mile rated range per charge. The kWh figure is EPA's combE, measured at the wall, so charging losses are already inside it — you are not paying for them twice.

Every figure on this page comes from the U.S. EPA's public fuel economy database and its web services, both federal public-domain data. We add no estimates of our own. Where a number is missing it shows as a dash rather than a guess.

Add your own numbers

The gap on this page is real driving. Federal data has, at most, a handful of drivers per car, and no service or repair figures at all. If you own one, send what you actually get — it goes on this page with the count shown honestly next to it.

Nothing is published with your name or email on it.

The app behind the guides

Carvico is a private car logbook for iPhone: fuel with real full-tank MPG, service history, receipt scanning, reminders that use miles and months, and CSV/PDF export. Your records stay on your iPhone and your own iCloud — we run no server that holds them.
