Our goal is to build hybrid and conventional models on the same line and to offer hybrids with the same style and same functionality as convention vehicles.

There's going to be some really key things to meet the commitments we have to our hybrid plans. One is we have to have the right people and skills in place - and we have a tremendous, strong team we've built over the last year with over 300 talented people. And the other part is we have to have product that is out there and meets customer needs.

Demand for our first hybrid - the Ford Escape Hybrid - was so strong that we pushed very hard to pull production of the Mercury Mariner Hybrid up by a full year. Ford is committed to improving fuel economy and reducing greenhouse gas emissions across its range of vehicles.

As we grow and our volumes grow, we need to make sure our North American supply stream is there to grow with us. And we've made good progress in developing, and continuing to develop, a supply community that will be able to be there with us as we expand.

The Road & Track report is yet another indication of the performance, quality and value of our hybrids. Consumers are more and more coming to see that they can own an environmentally friendly hybrid without compromising on anything.

Hydrogen holds the ultimate long-term promise for clean and sustainable power. In the meantime, both hybrids and ethanol-fueled vehicles can significantly lessen U.S. dependence on imported oil while reducing the impact on our global environment.

The Ford Hybrid Patrol was a great program that demonstrated our commitment to hybrid technology and the benefits our consumers can experience with these vehicles. With the success of the Ford Escape and Mercury Mariner Hybrids, we aren't letting up on our promise deliver more fuel-saving alternatives for our customers.

Ford has the right blend of expertise necessary to lead this research. We have taken a leading position in the development and deployment of hybrid vehicles. We also have put more than 1.5 million flex-fuel vehicles on America?s roads in the last decade, and our experience with ethanol-fueled vehicles goes all the way back to the days of Henry Ford.
