The 2020 Ford Escape is Ford's Answer to NOT Selling Cars in the US Anymore

Ford really shocked the industry when they announced all passenger cars in the US would be discontinued except for the Mustang a couple years ago. In order to fill the void left by cars, Ford would continue to invest heavily in crossover vehicles. The #FordEscape was one of the brand's first crossover and for 2020, its been completely redesigned from the ground up. The #EscapeHybrid also returns with over 40 MPG and a new Plug-in Hybrid with up to 30 miles of range will be coming later this year. While the design is certainly more car-like, we're hoping the loss of the Focus and Fiesta, will result in a much sportier #Escape and we're keeping our fingers crossed for an Escape ST in the coming years.

    To be honest I've seen this car on the highway in Pennsylvania before and me and my girlfriend slowed down just to see what it was because it kinda looked like a tesla but we weren't sure but when we seen the ford badge and the escape name on the back we were both surprised and I think it looks good

    I've been driving a Ford Focus hatchback for years. Just traded my 2014 Focus in on a 2020 Escape Hybrid SE Sport version. I've been a fan of small cars for years but now I have farther to drive in Michigan winters and AWD made sense for me. I'm really enjoying my Escape, and I think it looks really nice.

    I just got the 2021 Ford Escape hybrid and really liking it. I am getting a little over 41 mpg between city and highway. The style is nice, it is a smooth design. I have seen the CR V and not impressed by the design. The Rav 4 looks nice, but, end of the day, the Escape just did it for me. The only things I dislike about it are: -lack of storage areas. I am used to a lot of little storage areas, this have the glove box and the area between the seats, along with the doors. I would much prefer a few smaller areas to keep change, or other common items for quick access. -the info screen is at an annoying angle. It would be much nicer if you could angle it slightly to the driver, the middle and the passenger. -I would prefer a bit more information on the dash. Otherwise, it is a really nice ride.

The issue for Ford is that Americans don’t want SHIT cars, and would rather spend their money on a car they could depend on. I myself prefer cars over SUV’s but have no desire to purchase American vehicles unless it’s a Dodge.

So, you see plenty of people praising the Mazda interior, which is pretty much the same as this, so why is it not good is beyond me. I think this interior is nice. All cars have plastic interiors unless youo're buying some Rolls royce or Bugatti.

If this new one is more like the Focus it should handle a lot better and still be practical.

    The biggest problem with Ford is that they eliminated the cheaper offerings in their lineup, and now you are stuck with either getting a slow and dated EcoSport starting at $20k or this for 5 grand more. There are still buyers who want a new car with a decent monthly payment and there are now very few car offerings. I have seen more Mitsubishi Mirages on the road than ever, and the used market has CPO ones hovering around 10k. They really alienated a crucial market to the Koreans and Japanese. I feel that was a bad move and we will see if it works out for them in a few years.

    Kinda wish he’d review vehicles based on their intended use, instead of rating everything as if it’s trying to appeal to “car community” type people. CUV’s like this need to be middle-of-the-road transportation. Making hybrid the default power train is brilliant...people buying this car want dependable transportation with minimal running cost (fuel burn). Maybe an ST version is worthwhile, but with an automatic transmission, will it really be any fun anyway?
