Why it stands out
The 2021 Ford Escape stands out in the crowded compact SUV market due to its blend of utility and efficiency. Following a major redesign in 2020, the Escape features a car-like aesthetic that attractively straddles the line between a hatchback and an SUV. It offers a range of powertrains, including hybrid and plug-in hybrid options, catering to various consumer needs. The interior provides spaciousness with notable features like a standard sliding rear seat, which allows users to adjust legroom and cargo space as required. While it boasts a user-friendly infotainment system and comprehensive safety features, some may critique its uninspired styling and the quality of interior materials as less competitive compared to rivals. The expert rating of 6.67 / 10 highlights its solid performance, particularly in cost effectiveness and safety, while also noting areas for improvement in driving experience.

This car is best with the higher trim and solid 2.0 Turbo awd drive train. One of the best values in the segment. Also plenty of room for performance increase if thats your thing.

Bought this vehicle certified Gold certified for my daughter. Great value vs. competitors, great standard safety features and great mpg. You wont win any drag races, but the engine is absolutely fine. The car is sharp looking and practical. And Ford dealers are everywhere.

The features were good. The reliability rating is terrible. The fact that it had 2 owners with 7000 miles on it was a turn off.
