Part of what makes the 2024 Ford Escape such an attractive, well-rounded option in the increasingly crowded American SUV/compact SUV market is its wide range of available powertrains. In this guide on the Ford Escape specs and performance, we’ll detail each of the four Ford Escape engine options, their specs, and the kind of fuel efficiency you can expect from them on the Golden Valley roads.
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!
