Ford is synonymous with year-on-year advancements, and its latest project to continue this trend of annual redesigns and improvements. The 2020 Ford Escape comes with a roomy new interior, a sporty look, and lots of convenient features, making it the ideal choice for families and regular commuters. Here are some great features of this versatile vehicle with nine trim levels, including S, SE Sport Hybrid, SEL Plug-In Hybrid, Titanium, and Titanium Plug-In Hybrid.
An Attractive Exterior
The muscular 2020 Escape is modern and takes the exterior design to a whole new level with its selection of top features, such as a rear spoiler, 17-inch wheels, all-season tires, and a prominent mesh grille with active shutter — available in black or chrome. You can even raise the aesthetics bar by adding 18- or 19-inch wheels, a panoramic sunroof, chrome dual exhaust, fog lights, roof rails, automatic high beams, and a hands-free power liftgate.
Outstanding Performance
To deliver a fun drive, this compact crossover SUV uses a turbocharged three-cylinder 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine that generates 180 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque. The 2020 Escape also comes standard with front-wheel drive, power steering, and an eight-speed automatic transmission, all combining to deliver a smooth ride. All-wheel drive and an engine block heater are available for better acceleration and more seamless maneuverability.
Next in the lineup of engine options is the optional 2.0-liter turbocharged EcoBoost that supplies 250 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque. The Hybrid trim levels use a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that pairs with continuously variable automatic transmissions to produce 198 horsepower. Impressively, the plug-in hybrids use the same combo to generate 209 horsepower. What’s more, the hybrid engine’s fuel efficiency is supreme as it gets 44 mpg on smaller streets and 37 mpg on the open road.
The automobile tows up to 3,500 pounds and even offers several driving modes for customized driving: Slippery, Normal, Sport, Eco, or Snow/Sand.
A Comfortable Interior
The Escape can fit five people, and its folding rear seats have a new sliding feature to make getting in or out easy. Standard features that elevate the interior from regular to remarkable include a 4.2-inch driver instrument cluster, an outdoor temperature display, a compass, and a Wi-Fi hot spot. Power heated leather seats, a 12.3-inch driver instrument cluster, an 8-inch touch screen, navigation, and dual-zone climate control are also available.
Considering more upgrades? Then, you can add these niceties to your 2020 Escape: 10-speaker Bang & Olufson sound system with a subwoofer, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, remote start, a keypad for keyless entry, and SiriusXM satellite radio.
