The 2024 Ford Escape: Versatility in a Compact SUV

Jan 8, 2025

The 2024 Ford Escape excels in all aspects that make compact SUVs one of the best-selling vehicle segments today. It boasts a sleek style that turns heads everywhere it goes, a range of powerful yet fuel-efficient powertrains, adrenaline-pumping performance, and a spacious cabin adorned with premium niceties and a suite of comfort, safety, and convenience technologies.

The Versatile Features of the 2024 Ford Escape

Range of Potent Power Plants

The Escape offers four different powertrains to meet a wide range of performance demands. The standard engine comes in the way of a 180-HP 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine that sprints to 60 in 7 seconds while achieving up to 33 MPG on the highway. For those desiring high-octane thrills, the turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four engine delivers a staggering 250 HP, allowing the Escape to reach 60 in 5 seconds while maintaining an impressive 31 MPG on the highway.

Those looking to minimize their carbon footprint will love the hybrid options. The first option is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that’s assisted by two electric motors to produce 192 HP. It dashes to 60 in 7 seconds and achieves a jaw-dropping 42 MPG in city driving and 36 MPG during highway driving. The final powertrain is a 210-HP plug-in hybrid unit consisting of the aforementioned 2.5-liter engine and a more powerful electric motor. It attains a heart-warming 44 MPG.

High-Level Performance Features

The Ford Escape delivers thrilling handling thanks to a host of performance-enhancing elements. The available all-wheel-drive system ensures ample traction from all angles, allowing the Escape to remain stable and composed even during high-speed maneuvers. Moreover, it can disconnect when not needed, allowing you to front-wheel-drive the car for improved fuel efficiency. And when combined with 7.5 inches of ground clearance and available skid plates, this advanced AWD system makes the Escape a tremendous off-roader.

The rack-and-pinion steering system is incredibly agreeable and precise, giving the Escape graceful handling, while the 8-speed automatic transmission delivers butter-smooth shifts for faultless accelerations. The available CVT transmission is just as smooth, giving the Escape the refined feel of a luxury vehicle. And thanks to the responsive four-wheel anti-lock brake system, the Escape comes to a smooth halt at a moment’s notice.

Spacious and Refined Interior

The Escape offers a premium cabin to ensure a comfortable riding experience. With over 100 cubic feet of passenger space, it is one of the roomiest options in its segment, providing ample lounging room for everyone. Meanwhile, up to 65 cubic feet of cargo volume takes the Escape’s versatility to a whole new level.

For your creature comforts, it can offer top-shelf amenities such as a panoramic sunroof, heated seats, leather upholstery, wireless charging, a 13.2-inch infotainment touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and a 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system!
