The most fuel-efficient SUV in Canada — Escape Hybrid.
Seriously. Escape Hybrid front-wheel drive (FWD) gets up to
5.8L/100 km (49 mpg) city and 6.5L/100 km (43 mpg) hwy. In
fact, the hybrid powertrain is so self-sufficient, it actually
recharges itself.
The 2.5L 4-cylinder engine works with the electric traction
motor to move you with 177 net horsepower. Regenerative
braking helps recharge the 330-volt battery pack, which
then supplies energy to drive in 100% electric mode up to
70 km/h. Now that’s taking efficiency to a whole new
level. With the standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine and available
6-speed automatic transmission, Escape FWD gets 10.0L/100
km (28 mpg) city and 7.1L/100 km (40 mpg) hwy.1 Escape and
Escape Hybrid both
offer the capability of available intelligent 4WD and tons
of smart technology, including our available Ford SY NC®
voice-activated, in-vehicle connectivity system and available
active park assist.
Intelligent
4WD gets you out there.
With fully independent suspension and outstanding ground
clearance, both Escape and Escape Hybrid are naturally nimble
enough to drive up and over some formidable obstacles that
some others will have to waste time driving around. If you
prefer the road less travelled, go for optional intelligent
4WD. Always on and always working, it automatically monitors
traction 200 times per second (much faster than any person
could) and adjusts torque distribution as needed to give
you maximum grip. It’s got serious skills.
Engines
flex, tow, sip and go.
Escape’s available Duratec® 30–3.0L V6
engine is Flex Fuel capable, so you can run it on gasoline,
E85 (85% ethanol and 15% gasoline), or any blend of the
2. Mated to an efficient 6-speed automatic transmission,
it cranks out 240 horsepower and tows up to 1,588 kg (3,500
lbs.) when properly equipped.
When paired with the available 6-speed automatic transmission
and front-wheel drive, the standard Duratec 25–2.5L
4-cylinder engine delivers a remarkable 7.1L/100 km (40
mpg) hwy. and 10.0L/100 km (28 mpg) city.
Our industry-first Easy Fuel® capless fuel filler,
standard on all Escape models, automatically seals shut
when you remove the fuel nozzle. There’s no cap. So
you just gas up and go. It also helps reduce evaporative
emissions.
Safety is standard for your peace of mind.
Escape and Escape Hybrid both come equipped with a long
list of cutting-edge safety features. 1 – AdvanceTrac®
with RSC ® (Roll Stability ControlTM) is a brake-based
electronic stability control system that utilizes 2 gyroscopic
sensors to help keep all 4 wheels firmly planted. 2 –
Personal Safety SystemTM features dual-stage front airbags
for the driver and front passenger. 3 – Front-seat
side airbags increase protection for the driver and front
passenger in certain side-impact collisions. 4 – Safety
Canopy® System includes side-curtain airbags and a rollover
sensor. 5 – SOS Post- Crash Alert SystemTM flashes
the hazard lights and sounds the horn after airbag deployment
or safety belt pretensioner activation in certain collisions.
All standard. And those are just the highlights.
