  3. Let’s Look At the Ford Escape Hybrid 2010 I am considering buying this car mostly because it is a hybrid, meaning it’s eco-friendly. It is a hybrid, so it requires less gasoline, and its seats are made of 100% post-industrial materials, creating an Earth-Friendly material. The cushions use a foam made from the oils of soybeans. This car is better for the environment.
