Browse new Ford hybrids and EVs at Wendle Ford in Spokane—efficient power for daily drives and Inland Northwest adventures.
Ford’s electrified lineup is built for real life: stop-and-go commutes, school drop-offs, winter weather, and weekend getaways. If you’re shopping this page, you’re already thinking about saving fuel (or skipping gas entirely) while still getting the comfort, tech, and capability Ford is known for. Start by exploring our new Ford hybrids and EVs inventory, then use our Ford Research hub and Model Showroom to narrow down the right fit.
Around the Inland Northwest, electrified driving just makes sense. A hybrid can smooth out traffic on Division Street and I-90, a plug-in hybrid can help you run short errands around town on electricity, and an EV can deliver instant torque for confident merges while keeping ownership simple. Whether you’re heading from Spokane Valley into downtown, running up to Five Mile Prairie, or making a quick loop out to Liberty Lake, there’s an electrified Ford that matches the route.
A hybrid (like the Escape Hybrid) blends gas and electric power automatically—no new habits needed. A plug-in hybrid (like the Escape Plug-In Hybrid) adds a larger battery you can charge at home, so many shorter trips can be driven on electric power before the gas engine steps in for longer drives. A full EV (like the Mustang Mach-E or F-150 Lightning) runs only on electricity and can be charged at home and on the road. If you want a quick primer on home setup and public charging, see our EV charging guide.
Not sure which direction to go? A good rule of thumb is: hybrids are the easiest transition, plug-in hybrids are great if you can reliably charge at home, and EVs are ideal if you want the simplest day-to-day ownership and love the feel of instant electric acceleration.
Spokane shoppers tend to gravitate toward a few standout choices. The Escape Hybrid is the “do-everything” SUV for families and commuters. The Escape Plug-In Hybrid is a smart pick if your routine includes lots of shorter drives and you want to cut fuel stops dramatically. The Mustang Mach-E blends performance, tech, and style in a sporty SUV shape. And if you want truck capability with EV benefits, the F-150 Lightning brings serious utility to both job sites and weekend projects.
Don’t overlook electrified “everyday tools,” either. The Ford Maverick offers a compact footprint that’s easy to park in busier areas like Kendall Yards or downtown while still delivering real truck versatility. And if you’re shopping for a business, Ford’s electric commercial options—like the E-Transit—can be a strong fit for local deliveries and fleet use. You can also explore commercial electric inventory on our commercial site: E-Transit inventory.
Most EV owners do the majority of charging at home (think: plug in overnight, start the day ready). Public charging is great for longer routes, and it’s increasingly convenient for travel across the region. For a deeper dive on what charging can look like day-to-day, see our EV charging page, plus these helpful reads: complimentary home charger overview, charging on Tesla Superchargers, and how Tesla-station access works.
If you’re comparing EVs for year-round use, Spokane’s seasons matter. Cold temps can affect range and charging speed, and traction is a priority on slick mornings. This local-focused guide is worth a look: reliability and winter EV tips. For EV driving feel and efficiency in traffic, Mach-E shoppers also like: one-pedal driving explained.
Trim names and packages can vary by model year and availability, but these are the trims you’ll commonly see while shopping our electrified lineup. If you want to compare what each step up adds, use the model pages below and our Model Showroom for quick build-and-price style overviews.

And once you bring your electrified Ford home, you can keep it running its best with online service scheduling.
Want something specific that isn’t on the lot today? You can also explore a custom factory order and build toward the features, battery, and equipment you want.
A hybrid blends gas and electric power automatically (no charging required), while a plug-in hybrid adds a larger battery you can charge at home for more electric-only driving on shorter trips. A full EV runs only on electricity and is charged at home or at public stations. Compare current options on our hybrids & EVs inventory, then review charging basics on the EV charging page. If you’re plug-in curious, start with the Escape Plug-In Hybrid.
Most owners use Level 1 (standard outlet) or Level 2 charging at home for daily convenience, then rely on public fast charging for longer routes. Our EV charging guide breaks down your options, and these articles cover real-world scenarios: home charger & installation overview and Tesla Supercharger access.
Families often start with the Escape Hybrid (easy efficiency) or the Escape Plug-In Hybrid (more electric-only potential for short trips). For all-electric driving with available traction-focused configurations, many shoppers look at the Mustang Mach-E. If you need truck capability, the F-150 Lightning is a strong option. For local winter considerations, see EV reliability and cold-weather tips.
EVs generally have fewer moving parts than traditional gas vehicles, and many drivers appreciate the simplified routine maintenance. Hybrids and plug-in hybrids still use an engine, but can reduce fuel use and benefit from regenerative braking in many conditions. For a practical, local perspective on EV ownership, read reliability and maintenance tips for EVs, and compare electrified models on our inventory page.
