The 2019 Ford Escape owns its hatchback-like crossover persona, which works to make it one of the most popular SUVs on the market. From practical commuters to hotrod hatch models, there's nothing the Escape can't be.
Drivers in Cincinnati, Newport, and Covington can find out more about the 2019 Ford Escape with our in-depth vehicle review.
The Escape is equipped with a 2.5-liter inline-4 that produces 168 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque. Also available is a 1.5-liter turbo-4 with 179 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque, which produces low-range power and uses a slick, 6-speed automatic transmission. There's also a 2.0-liter turbo-4 rated at 245 horsepower, giving you plenty of thrust for highway passing and merging, as well as paddle shifters to improve the ride.
All-wheel drive is optional for all models, and a simulated torque vectoring system improves the cornering and handling to make the Escape more agile and athletic. Though this is a nice addition, the Escape's firm steering and body control don't need much help to feel confident and secure.
The seating in the Escape is firm and supportive with plenty of comfort for long drives. Despite the attractive sculpting and expressive styling within the cabin, passengers enjoy an abundance of headroom and legroom, along with the airy design of the interior. Soft-touch surfaces and plush upholstery options add to the luxury and elegance of the space.
With the rear seats upright, the cargo hold is 34 cubic feet, expanding to 68 cubic feet when folded. An adjustable cargo floor and a hands-free, gesture-activated tailgate make for convenient and quick cargo loading as well. With all this space, you could haul anything from shopping bags to camping gear.
The 2019 Ford Escape is equipped with the Sync® 3 infotainment system with an 8-inch touchscreen and Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ smartphone integration, as well as satellite radio, HD Radio™, navigation, and a 12-speaker, 390-watt Sony sound system. With its easy-to-use interface, crisp, clear graphics, responsive touchscreen inputs, and array of app compatibility, the Sync® 3 system gives you limitless options and entertainment on the road.
Many advanced safety features are available for the Escape as well, such as automatic emergency braking, forward-collision warning, blind-spot monitors, and active lane control. There's also a tow package, which uses Ford's impressive trailer-sway control feature and stability control to maintain security and poise in a variety of towing scenarios.
With its safety and entertainment technology, impressive cargo and passenger space, and range of engine and performance options, the 2019 Ford Escape combines the best of a hatchback and an SUV in one. No matter what you need from a utility vehicle, you can find your perfect match in the Escape lineup.
