Naturally, Ford couldn't resist mentioning that the C-MAX Energi beats Toyota's Prius Plug-in Hybrid by 5 MPGe on the combined rating.
“With $5-per-gallon gasoline, C-MAX Energi customers essentially will pay $1.25 per gallon for the same distance traveled compared with average vehicles estimated to achieve 23 mpg,” said John Davis, chief nameplate engineer, C-MAX Energi.
