Like the Forester, there are a few compartments under the Outlander's cargo floor, but they're only a couple inches deep (see the animated photo and the cargo video). They're designed to accommodate the optional window-shade-style retractable cargo cover when it's removed from its mounting point behind the backseat.

Carlike in its road manners and unibody construction, The Ford Escape Hybrid is one of the easiest SUVs to climb aboard and handle. Its regenerative brakes work to recharge the batteries during braking. Overall, the driving experience is a pleasant one. The interior is roomy.
2006 Mitsubishi Outlander SE 2WD - Test drive and new car review ...
The Outlander's rear hatch swings up, offering good head clearance for loading and a nice, low load floor. The rear cargo compartment is kind of small, as the rear seat angle and the angle of the rear hatch conspire to pinch on the space. A flimsy vinyl cargo cover is included to keep your packages private.

As the Ford Escape hybrid, the Lexus is stealth like when compared to its sisters. This quickly changes once you check out the drivetrain. The hybrid 400h carries 300 pounds of extra weight, but this is offset when the two electric motors and the gas engine work together to provide 268 horsepower compared to 230 for the gas version. One electric motor drives the front wheels and one drives the back. A continuous variable transmission on the hybrid does its work efficiently, but there is sharp tug when you are slowly backing out of a parking space and the gas engine decides it is needed. Keep your foot on the brake or it jumps a bit.

Quality is also surprisingly mediocre for a Japanese product. The test car's interior featured hard, loose, roughly trimmed or improperly fitted plastics, and a few rattles. The flimsy cargo cover would last about six months. The bumpers are unpainted. The aerial doesn't retract.
2005 Hybrid Comparison
The same inflation that afflicts the Prius also hampers the 2005 Ford Escape Hybrid. Simply put, it's hard to talk about value when people are waiting for months to drive home their beauties - and paying thousands over sticker to do so. Even with that, however, the Escape Hybrid is a solid value - once a little air is released from the hybrid market - because it is the only hybrid SUV available for purchase. That will change when the Toyota Highlander Hybrid and its third-row seat shows up in June, but even then - count on a starting price north of $30,000 for Toyota's hybrid SUV. That's a lot of green for seven-passenger seating, and the Ford Escape Hybrid will continue to serve as a solid buy after the debut of the Toyota, depending on what you put in the thing. At its base level, the 2005 Ford Escape Hybrid with front-wheel drive comes in at $26,380, and with all-wheel-drive at $28,005. Option packages include the Energy, Audiophile and Navigation system package for $1,850, which features an Audiophile audio system, CD-based satellite navigation and a display on the nav system that shows fuel economy, and how the hybrid powertrain manages the power. There's also a safety package for $595 that includes side-curtain airbags covering front and rear seating areas. There's a leather comfort package for $575, an appearance package for $625 (front and side fascias), a MACH audio with 6-disc changer for $565, a 110-volt AC power outlet at $110, a retractable rear cargo cover for $75 and rear carpeted floor mats for $25. Must-have options for the Ford Escape Hybrid include the Energy package for $1,850 and the safety package for $595. That's an additional $2,445 dollars tacked onto the sticker - making the front-wheel Escape Hybrid's cost close to $29,000, around $6,000 more than the Prius with side curtain airbags and much better fuel economy.
