If you’ve been looking for an SUV that’s as fuel efficient as it is fun to drive, meet the 2025 Ford Escape, a compact crossover that perfectly fits the bill while also providing luxury interior comforts, next-level technology, and all the following things that have quickly made this edition a popular choice for drivers.
Performance to Go the Distance
Along with optional all-wheel drive, this edition has three fuel-savvy engines to choose from, depending on which trim level you go with. A 181-horsepower 1.5-liter engine serves as the base engine and gets an estimated 30 MPG in combined city/highway mileage. The intermediate engine is a 2.0-liter that increases output to 250 horses, perfect for those who want the most power.
The third option is a 210-horsepower 2.5-liter hybrid engine that pairs with both regular and plug-in hybrid powertrains. This engine offers 191 horsepower and 42 MPG in combined city/highway mileage with the regular powertrain and 210 horsepower with 101 MPGe in combined mileage when paired with the plug-in hybrid powertrain.
Upscale and Adventure-Ready
Inside the cabin, there’s seating for up to five passengers, and you can fold the standard split-folding seat down and slide it forward to create up to 65.4 cubic feet of space for cargo. To combat different weather conditions, dual-zone climate control and an outside temperature display are also standard and heated front seats are available, while the optional Panoramic Vista Roof with power shade is sure to be appreciated on sunny days.
Along with a wide range of distinctive paint color options, like Vapor Blue and Rapid Red, this edition’s exterior design offers plenty of style with its standard dual chrome exhaust tips, LED signature lighting, and rear spoiler. Heated side mirrors, LED fog lamps, and a unique rear skid plate come with select upper trims for tackling different challenges, as does a power liftgate for extra convenience, and privacy glass extends from the liftgate to the second row on all models.
Innovative Tech Throughout
Also featuring plenty of innovative technology, this SUV comes with SYNC 4, which combines hands-free calling, driver preference settings, apps, and wireless audio streaming in a single infotainment system. Every model also has multiple USB ports for charging devices, and there’s an available wireless charging pad as well. Select trims have a full-color 12.3-inch instrument cluster, and hundreds of SiriusXM radio channels are easily accessible with a subscription.
Every 2025 Escape also comes with Ford Co-Pilot360, a group of advanced driver-assist features that includes BLIS (Blind Spot Information System), Lane-Keeping System, and the Rear View Camera with split-screen visuals. There’s also Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, as well as Dynamic Brake Support, Pedestrian Detection, and rear parking sensors.
