Detroit Free Press - September 13, 2012

More Amer?i?cans are will?ing to pay more for a vehi?cle that will save on fuel over time and are adjust?ing how they drive to make each drop of fuel go further.

Find out more about this Ford-commissioned sur?vey.

Of sur?vey respon?dents, 25% said they would buy a vehi?cle with hybrid tech?nol?ogy if they had $1,000 more to spend. The same per?cent?age of respon?dents would choose an energy-efficient appli?ance or solar pan?els. Most gasoline-electric vehi?cles that don?t require recharg?ing cost between $2,000 and $5,000 more than gas-engine ver?sions of the same?model.

?As Amer?i?can con?sumers con?tinue to get greener, Ford is rapidly intro?duc?ing more fuel-saving tech?nolo?gies to expand the power of choice for lead?ing fuel econ?omy across our lineup,? said Raj Nair, Ford?s head of global prod?uct devel?op?ment.
