When we hear the word "Ford", adjectives "high-class and trustworthy" are our first descriptions to this amazing automobile brand. For thirteen years, the Ford Company has been the number supplier of small cars, such as Ford Fiesta, Focus and C-MAX, with its 35,851 sales in the United States and 39 percent increase among the other brands. The beauty and efficiency of its small cars served as one of the reasons for 42 percent group's growth in North America in the year 2008.
Ford, which noted its part in United States electrified vehicle industry, was up to almost 16, pointed to its Hybrid C-MAX for helping drive the plan. "Strong consumer acceptance of Ford Hybrids shows that our plan to lead in fuel economy across our lineup is working," said Raj Nair, group vice-president of the international product growth. The plan was publicized during a telecast hosted by the Ford Company in July. During the program, Ford said that electric automobile sales had achieved 46, 197 units through June, including the new buyers of C-MAX new buyers in Florida, Texas and coastal markets.
On the other side of the story, the automaker added that Toyota Prius in United States has lowered five percent on the same period. Toyota sales down to 4.5 percent were also noted, but the company still held the title in Canada with retailed Prius Cs through the end of June while C-Max could gather just 757. According to Ford, almost 64 percent of C-MAX buyers came from various non-Ford types in June. This fact was actually the driving force of Lincoln to increase the production mix of Hybrid MKZ to 40 percent of MKZ, up from 20 percent.
Vehicle calibration updates have been started in August 2013 with the following features: increased maximum pure electric speed to 85 mph from 62 mph, optimized climate control system to minimize the use of air-conditioning compressor and reduced the energy consumption during cold weather, shortened engine warm-up time by 50 percent to enable electric driving, enhanced the use of Active Grille Shutters to minimize aerodynamic drag under driving and temperature settings including cold weather, during higher engine coolant temperature and air-conditioner use, decreased the use of electric fan speed as a function of coolant temperature to reduce the consumption of energy.
To provide a clearer copy and understanding of these features, Raj gave the following detailed information: increased maximum pure electric speed to 85 mph from 62 mph, improved climate control system to minimize the use of the air-conditioning compressor and reduce the energy consumption, shortened engine warm-up time by 50 percent to enable electric-only driving and engine shutdown, lessened electric fans speed function of coolant temperature to decrease the fan's consumption of energy and optimized Active Grille consumption to reduce the aerodynamic drag under more driving and temperature conditions.

About the Author:
What President Obama refers to as a "hybrid"is a vehicle that uses two or more distinct power sources to move the vehicle. The term most commonly refers to hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), which combine an internal combustion engine and one or more electric motors. Yet there is a lot more that meets the eye as well as high tech.. This article, Leading Edge Technologies When It Comes To Hybrids is available for free reprint.
