The Ford Escape is a modern and agile compact SUV, the sleek exterior complemented by excellent handling and modern engines. Power comes from a choice of 4-cylinder engines mated to a 6-speed automatic, a front-wheel-drive only 2.5-liter unit with 168 hp and two turbocharged powertrains with 179 hp (1.5-liter) and 245 hp (2-liter) optionally available with all-wheel-drive. Inside, the Escape is well built and remains versatile with space for five and plenty of cargo space.
