Very comfortable & reliable ride.

Plenty of space in back. Good legroom & headroom. Comfortable & quiet ride. Love the on steering wheel controls ease of use! It has many places to recharge your phone including a sub port that doesn't even need an adapter.

WOW THATS ALL I CAN SAY IS WOW

This Ford Escape has everything I need, large back up camera, warning signals, I opted out of the sun roof, but I know that would be awesome. Easy to get in and out of, I have numerous health movement conditions and this works great. Nice heated seats, ample ports for charging devices, opted out of navigation system. All in all this is just what we needed. Love the color as well.

GOOD ACCELERATION IN TRAFFIC. EASY TO PARK

I REPLACED A 2017 ESCAPE BECAUSE OF THE GREAT DEAL THAT THE DEALER OFFERED. MY WIFE ALSO HAS A 2018 ESCAPE. ITS THE PERFECT VEHICLE FOR OLDER EMPTY NESTERS

My first SUV

This car is perfect for my short stature. It puts me up where I can see and yet is easy to get in and out of.

Poor mileage and instrumentation.

Despite a 1.5 turbo engine gas milage around town is a poor 15-16. I traded in a 2014 Accord that had better throttle response and got about 25 around town, up to 34 on long trips. The backup camera screen is smaller than my cell phone and so far away that it is almost useless. I see why Ford is bailing from the auto market. I bought this vehicle used at less than 1000 miles, got a great deal but still think it was a mistake.

Greatest car I've ever owned... And I've had a few

This car met all my needs, including and most important, my families needs. It's awd is perfect for the winter. And back seat is spacey enough to fit three car seats comfortably, you don't find that often. With a HUGE trunk space.

Just bought my 2nd Escapte

I bought a new 2014 Ford Escape, which I loved. So when a friend told me she just bought a 2018 Ford Escape, I went to check them out. I'm now have a 2018 Ford Escape and love it. Smooth ride and reasonable cost.
