Personally like interior trim, smooth ride, and many extra features in the Titanium Hybrid. Added a hitch for small towing needs, installed by Ford. Factory installed would have been ideal but wasn’t in stock at time of purchase. I am particularly impressed with mileage. So far approx 43% of my overall miles are electric, however mostly short haul trips. No regrets! Very happy so far but time will tell how it holds up.

Our 2021 Escape Hybrid/Titanium if fabulous- 51 MPG in the first 10 mile trip driving home from the dealer and I have pictures to prove it! We have been getting 45-56 MPG with mid-range gas in our daily driving-mid 40s on the highway at 70 mph with the AC running and mid 50s on two lane roads and in city traffic generally 45mph or less. The Hybrid drive and CVT make it very smooth starting and stopping which is very important for a family member who has had extensive neck and back issues and the battery pack shifts the center of gravity back toward the rear wheels making the hybrid much more nimble than the fully gas powered Escape. It's AWD and navigates the narrow, poorly maintained mountain road to our home with no issues. Power is more than adequate on the highway. We are very happy with this vehicle.

Considered the Honda CRV but chose the redesigned Escape titanium version instead. Liked the stronger 250 hp engine and its traditional transmission versus CVT in the Honda. The tech features (nav, HUD, app, safety) are significantly newer and at 6' tall I seemed to have a bit more leg room in the cockpit. I also really liked the panoramic sunroof option and a bit more comfortable seats. The car seems significantly more refined than the older generation CRV to me and the color and wheel choices appealed more to me. I love the antimatter blue. Negatives: In higher trim levels the Ford appears at least 10% more expensive than the Honda (apples to apples) and it's historical resale value is poorer as well. The Ford's interior is also not real impressive, seat materials even at the highest trim level (titanium elite) are cheap and hard plastics abound. Most upper level configurations end with a black interior, no grays are offered. It's unfortunate you have to order the highest trim level to get digital gauges, LED lights and an electronically dimming rear view mirror; they are not offered individually. Ford links interior choice to wheel selection which is also annoying. All in all I am happy with my choice (so far) and pleased to be driving an American car for the first time in 30 years.

Love this suv, very easy to drive and love all the upgrades! Saving money on gas as well! My sis bought the same suv, we both agree loving the Ford Escape! My son has an older model and loves it as well! The price was right with the help of edmunds advise.

Car bought brand new in September 2020. In April I brought car into dealer because rear shocks were leaking , drivers door broke, brake issues and auto hatchback had hit me in the head while loading car . I just got this car back two weeks ago . Hatchback and brake issue not resolved . When you spend 40000 thousand on a car do don’t expect to have these kind of issues as well as not having the car for 6 months .Dealership dropping the ball many times adding to the frustration along be unable to reach any executives in the corporate office
