Powered by the previous 2.0-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder but with outputs raised from 178kW/345Nm to 183kW/387Nm at reasonably relaxed rpm (5700rpm and 3100rpm respectively), the Ford Escape towers over its class competitors with 0-100km/h acceleration hovering around the even six-second mark. The base Escape is front-drive only but, like its stablemates, comes as standard with an eight-speed auto gearbox. Like the premium Escape Vignale, the ST-Line can be had with either front-drive, or Ford’s on-demand AWD system. It employs the familiar mix of MacPherson struts up front and an independent multi-link system at the rear. The Spanish-built Escape builds off Ford’s new C2 platform, which is also used by the current-generation Focus and succeeds the C1 platform of the previous Escape.

In-cabin tech is pretty complete: Wireless phone charging, push-button starting, digital radio, Ford’s SYNC 3 infotainment system with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto and auto up/down power windows operable via the key fob are all standard.įord has separated the three-grade Escape line-up into base, sports and luxury configurations: The ST-Line reviewed here is the lower-slung, tighter-riding, driver-oriented variant that gets its own 18-inch alloy wheels with 225/60R18 tyres, a bigger spoiler above the rear window, different side skirts and its own front and rear bumper assemblies. The overall effect, other than the characteristically-Ford door trims which are somewhat basic by comparison with the rest of the interior, is pretty swish. Unlike the smaller Ford Puma, which lists some safety gear as pack-optional, the base Escape’s complete list of safety equipment replicates that of the more expensive ST-Line and Vignale versions.įor another $2000, what you pick up by ordering the mid-range ST-Line Escape – our review car – is a boy-racer enhanced body, lower-set sports suspension, selective use of black detailing inside and out, darker roof lining, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster ahead of the driver, a flat-bottom steering wheel, metal-look floor pedals and a mix of red and white stitching throughout.
