You can get the powertrain you want with the new Ford Escape. There are four sets of Ford Escape specs, including available hybrid and plug-in hybrid options. Even the base Ford Escape engine provides Golden Valley drivers with plenty of power to get through their commutes. In addition, no matter which powertrain you prefer, you’ll have a Ford Escape mpg that gives you a healthy relationship with the pump.
Let Anderson Ford Kingman make the process of buying a Ford simple. Our experts have the knowledge you need to make the right decision when shopping for a new Ford.
There are two gas-powered engine options and two hybrid/PHEV engine options available to you if you decide on the 2025 Ford Escape as your next Dolan Springs commuter. Please keep in mind that not all powertrain configurations are available for all trims, so contact us after reading this overview to learn more about powertrain availability:
1.5L EcoBoost® I-3 Engine
2.0L EcoBoost® I-4 Engine
2.5L iVCT Atkinson-Cycle I-4 Hybrid Engine
2.5L iVCT Atkinson Cycle I-4 Plug-In Hybrid
Having considered the basic specifications for each of the 2025 Ford Escape engine options, let’s now turn our attention to actual performance capabilities, like towing. As a compact SUV, the Ford Escape is a relatively light vehicle with its estimated base curb weight ranging from 3,273 pounds to 3,880 pounds. So even though you can push the Ford Escape towing capacity up to 3,500 pounds with the Class II Trailer Tow Package, anything above that isn’t considered safe. Check out what each 2025 Ford Escape engine is capable of below:
1.5L EcoBoost® I-3 Engine
2.0L EcoBoost® I-4 Engine
2.5L iVCT Atkinson-Cycle I-4 Hybrid engine
2.5L iVCT Atkinson Cycle I-4 Plug-In Hybrid
Finally, let’s wrap up with the available fuel economy figures for the 2025 Ford Escape. Unfortunately, neither the OEM nor the EPA has released concrete mpge figures for the Plug-in Hybrid Escape so we can’t give you anything definitive on that matter. That said, considering its status as a PHEV, you can expect its fuel economy figures to be as efficient, if not more so, than the available figures you’ll see below:
1.5L EcoBoost® I-3 Engine
2.0L EcoBoost® I-4 Engine
2.5L iVCT Atkinson-Cycle I-4 Hybrid engine
No matter which you choose, it’s clear that the 2025 Ford Escape is efficient enough to take you to and from Hackberry with minimal fuel stops. If you have questions about the various powertrain options or the Ford Escape mpg ratings, contact our service technicians for assistance.
Ultimately, the powertrain you end up with will come down to the trim you select and whether you outfit your Escape with EcoBoost® or Hybrid capability. Do you want some of the fuel efficiency granted by a hybrid powertrain, but also want the reliability of a traditional gas-powered engine? Try EcoBoost®! Or if you’re ready to make the plunge into full-on PHEV territory, Hybrid is the way to go, and we’re certain you’ll be happy with the Ford Escape hybrid mpg ratings!
