Ford unveils a plug in Escape hybrid

This looks highly promising for plug in vehicles.  TechCrunch had the opportunity to drive a plug in version of Ford’s Escape hybrid which is due out in 2012.  140miles to the charge.

This is the right direction.  The question I have is whether or not Ford will still be in business in 2012 to produce the vehicle.  If they are still in business, will this be an “affordable” hybrid, or a hybrid like the Tesla Roadster, only available to the rich?

Time will tell on all accounts, I guess.
