For propulsion, the hybrid Ford's reliable technology plug-in (PHEV) with a source of energy lithium-ion battery and gasoline engine (not specified capacity and ability). Furthermore, the car is equipped with various advanced technologies that deliver a new experience for the driver.

With this concept, motorl electric and gasoline engines can work simultaneously or individually to maximize efficiency. So, the car can go only by electric energy or gasoline engine to charge the battery while continuously.
Added, with a cloud connectivity system, efficiency can be improved. Because cars can choose the optimum combination of power modes on each other. the excelence of this car, can learn the history of the driver's habits. In this way, can advise the driver to choose a better destination.
In the future, this car could also find a route which is prohibited or line or a special area for a particular vehicle. For example path or road specifically for electric cars.
