2010 Fusion Hybrid and 2009 Escape Hybrid make Kelley Blue Book's (http://www.kbb.com/) "Top 10 Green Cars" list.

Both the Fusion and Escape Hybrids do everything great hybrids should do - in terms of providing excellent fuel economy - and at the same time, drive like conventional vehicles.
The recognition is not only based on fuel economy and powertrain, but features such as comfort, convenience, safety and value for the money. The 2010 Ford Fusion Hybrid provides 41 mpg in city driving and 36 mpg on the highway, making it North America's most fuel-efficient midsize sedan.

The Fusion Hybrid handily out-economizes both the Toyota Camry (EPA estimated 33 mpg city/34 mpg hwy) and the Chevy Malibu (EPA estimated 26 mpg city/34 mpg hwy).
Another factor that distinguishes the Fusion Hybrid from other hybrid vehicles is SmartGauge with EcoGuide, a unique instrument cluster execution that helps coach drivers on how to optimize the performance of their hybrid. In addition to smart technology, the 2010 Fusion Hybrid offers a variety of advanced safety features. The vehicle received a "Top Safety Pick" rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and delivers available segment-exclusive safety and driver-aid technologies, such as Ford SYNC with 911 Assist and Blind Spot Information System with Cross-Traffic Alert. Further enhancing its "green" sheen, the Fusion Hybrid features sustainable interior materials including seats that are made from eco-friendly fabric and filled with soy-based seat foam.

2009 Ford Escape Hybrid

The 2008 Ford Escape Hybrid earned a spot on kbb.com's inaugural "Top 10 Green Cars" list last year. This year marks the brand's second consecutive win. Aside from its high quality carbon footprint rating and its compact size, the Escape Hybrid is easy to drive around town and is comfortable on long highway trips. The Escape Hybrid provides 34 mpg in city driving, and like the Fusion Hybrid, features comfort-designed seats with soy-based foam that substitutes for petroleum-based products, and seat fabrics are made from post-industrial 100 percent recycled materials.
