2022 Ford Escape Review

The Escape kicks off its impressive performance with the engine under its hood. Here, you'll find a 1.5L EcoBoost® engine. This engine comes ready to pump out 181 horsepower and 190 lb-ft of torque, providing plenty of muscle as you navigate the local roadways.

The engine under the hood of the Escape is also mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, which will work to provide seamless gear shifting and force distribution. In doing so, this transmission will help the SUV perform highly efficiently, earning an EPA-estimated 28 city/34 highway MPG.

So, whether you're looking to get up to speed on the highway or are stuck in downtown traffic, the Escape will provide a superior performance in terms of power and efficiency.

As you drive the Escape, you'll also experience an easy commute that's enabled by the SUV's technology. The SYNC® infotainment system and FordPass™ Connect with 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot will allow you to integrate your mobile device with your SUV for seamless connection on the go, keeping you linked to the world around you no matter where you're headed.

Meanwhile, this SUV's impressive driver-assistive technology will work to provide an assisted driving experience, even automating some features and functions. Take the Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, for example, which will monitor the roads ahead and help you brake in the event of an obstruction.

On the exterior, you'll also benefit from Auto High-Beam Headlamps that autonomously turn your high beams on and off as you complete your nighttime drives.
