Car A
Ford Escape Active
The Ford Escape Active hybrid focuses on city efficiency and good value, with adequate performance and a five-seat layout. Its very small 100-liter trunk limits cargo, but the 400 km range keeps daily commuting and short trips simple.

A compact electric car with AWD, the Kona Electric balances city-friendly practicality, a long 480 km range, and good value in its segment. Better for efficient commuting and small-family use than for high-speed thrills.
