Hybrids are only good for city driving. After a certain mph (usually between 25-35, i think) the engine reverts to using gas. Its the continous stopping that charges the battery. I do mainly city/stuck in traffic driving which is why I want one.
Also, it adds about $10,000 onto the base price of an escape.
There is some controversy over the life time of the battery and the possibility of it being non recycle-able.
