FYI... For those of you that think "Green":
The Ford Fusion Energyi, and C-Max Energyi are both plug-in hybrids and can be towed 4 down. The EV range for the Fusion, depending on how you drive, is 12-19 miles. The 2018's are rated for 21 EV miles. The C-Max is about the same. In fact, almost ALL of Fords autos are towable 4 down.
A complete charge for a dead battery on my Fusion Energyi takes about 4 hours on 120 volts at less than 20 amps. On a high speed, 240 volt charger, it takes 2 hours at about 16 amps.
The Fusion and C-Max have a CVT transmission. For towing, you put the transmission in neutral, turn the car off and remove the key. Yep, the steering wheel does not lock down when you pull out the key.
