Reviews SummaryReportedly, Ford will discontinue the Escape at the end of the current fourth-generation run. Once among the most popular vehicles in its class, Ford recently zigged with the Escape’s design and positioning when the market zagged. Boxy, rugged-looking crossovers are what people want, not soft and sophisticated pseudo-cars like the current Escape. Fortunately, Ford has the Bronco Sport in its lineup, which is getting all of the automaker’s attention. Meanwhile, the 2024 Ford Escape receives no major changes following a substantial makeover in 2023, though it appears the Base trim is canceled. | |
Reviews SummaryHonda sure makes it easy to own a 2014 Honda Fit EV, thanks to a cheap lease payment, free maintenance, 82 miles of driving range, a maximum recharging time of 15 hours and a roomy interior. Still, range anxiety is a real problem in larger metropolitan areas, and both weather and topography can throw unexpected curve balls that will reduce the remaining distance to a dead battery. The Fit EV is definitely right for some people, but not everyone. | |
