Escape to the Extraordinary: The 2024 Ford Escape

Ford’s Escape may be the Dearborn automaker’s smallest SUV, but it delivers big when it comes to capability and practicality. It also boasts sharp looks and a slew of deluxe features. It’s time to get acquainted with the exciting 2024 Ford Escape!

Exceptional Performance

The Escape’s standard 1.5L inline-3 engine lets drivers tap into a solid 180 hp and 199 lb-ft of torque, which get sent to the drive wheels through an 8-speed automatic transmission. Thanks to this powertrain setup, the vehicle achieves an impressive balance of speed and efficiency, with the EPA estimating a highway fuel economy of 34 MPG.

Buyers can also opt for a 2.0L turbo inline-4 that develops 250 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque—good for a 0-to-60 time of less than six seconds. The available all-wheel drive system provides confidence in harsh conditions, but automatically disconnects the rear driveline when the extra grip isn’t needed, resulting in better fuel savings.

Bold Exterior Styling

Helping to set the Escape apart from the competition is its sporty, yet sophisticated design. The vehicle’s front fascia features aggressively shaped headlights, a large mesh front grille in a piano black finish, and LED signature lighting. A sloping rear window, dual-exhaust system, and rear spoiler make the Escape especially racy. While 17-inch wheels finished in Shadow Silver are standard, 18- and 19-inch are available, as well.

Elegant and Comfortable Interior

With its expertly crafted components, top-notch materials, and a wealth of standard and available amenities, the Escape’s cabin remains an inviting space, no matter the duration of your trip. Both headroom and legroom measure at close to 40 inches for both rows, so passengers never feel cramped. Dual-zone automatic climate control, an 8-way power driver’s seat, and a total of eight cup holders are standard.

Every trim offers heated seats, a panoramic power moonroof, and a wireless charging station. The Platinum model’s standard ActiveX leatherette upholstery and heated steering wheel add another layer of luxury.

Advanced Multimedia

On Active and ST-Line models, you’ll find an 8-inch Sync 4 infotainment touchscreen, which can be switched out for a larger 13.2-inch display. The infotainment system features support for wireless smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and a mobile Wi-Fi hotspot. SiriusXM with 360L provides countless hours of listening entertainment, and the available 10-speaker Bang & Olufsen sound system is sure to please audiophiles.
