Will there be a 2025 Ford Escape?
Yes — in fact, the 2025 Ford Escape has arrived! This compact crossover hasn’t changed much from last year. But thanks to its powerful engine options, comfy cabin, and world-class tech lineup, we’re not complaining!
Is the 2025 Ford Escape comfortable?
Absolutely! Ford’s compact crossover has always received recognition for its roomy cabin and cargo hold. Inside, five passengers can enjoy generous cushioning and supportive seating contours. Behind the rear seats, the Escape offers 37.5 cubic feet for your fishing gear or Mardi Gras supplies! And higher Escape trim models really help you kick back in style, with upgrades that include ActiveX upholstery, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.
Ford’s cutting-edge compact crossover also has your tech needs covered. Every 2025 Escape comes standard with the SYNC 4 infotainment system, along with an 8-inch touchscreen and the wireless versions of Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. The more luxurious trim models provide electronic upgrades like wireless smartphone charging, Connected Navigation, and a bigger, 13.2-inch central touchscreen. Add the Premium Technology Package for an even more impressive setup — one that includes a 10-speaker B&O sound system, head-up display, 360-degree camera, and more!
What are the 2025 Ford Escape engine options?
For 2025, the Escape offers your choice of four engines. Availability varies according to Escape trim model:
- Active, ST-Line: 1.5L three-cylinder EcoBoost engine (180 hp, 199 lb-ft)
- ST-Line Select and up: 2.0L four-cylinder EcoBoost engine (250 hp, 280 lb-ft)
- PHEV: 2.5L plug-in hybrid powertrain (210 hp, 155 lb-ft)
- Optional for ST-Line and up: 2.5L hybrid powertrain (192 hp, 155 lb-ft)
The Escape’s Thriftiest Engine Options
The 2025 Escape’s thriftiest powertrain is the plug-in hybrid! Only available on the Escape PHEV trim model, this powertrain includes both a rechargeable electric motor and gas-powered internal combustion engine. They work together to give you a total of 210 horsepower! Even better than its punchy power, though, is this Escape’s EPA rating. Thanks to a 37-mile electric driving range, you can achieve 105 MPGe in this sporty compact crossover. Combined, the electric driving range and a full tank of gas help you travel a total of 520 miles! If you choose to forgo the PHEV’s electric driving capabilities, you’ll still earn 40 mpg combined. Plus, the Escape PHEV trim model is available with up to $3,750 in tax credits!
The Escape’s other hybrid powertrain, which does not need to be recharged, also helps you enjoy excellent fuel economy. Plus, the available Escape hybrid powertrain achieves the same EPA ratings of 39 mpg combined (42 city/36 highway) whether you select front-wheel drive or sporty all-wheel drive! The hybrid is optional equipment for the Escape ST-Line trim model and up.
Boost Your Speed with the 250-HP EcoBoost Engine
Our customers often ask which trim models feature the Escape’s most powerful option, the 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine. Thanks to its turbocharger, this engine helps you balance major speed (250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque) with impressive fuel economy (with EPA ratings of up to 31 mpg on the highway)! This engine comes standard on the Escape ST-Line Select trim model and up.
Optional All-Wheel Drive
All but the Escape PHEV are available with all-wheel drive! This optional performance gear sends power to all four wheels, helping you maintain traction when the going gets rough (or slippery). Some trim models (the ST-Line Select, ST-Line Elite, and Platinum) even come standard with this trail-friendly performance gear.
