The 2025 Ford Escape may just be the perfect urban SUV. It’s got a compact frame and excellent maneuverability to make it a champion in tight spaces and compact parking spots, with all the versatility and capability you’ve come to expect from a Ford SUV. And when it’s time to get away for a weekend road trip, it’s got the technology to make the journey fun and enjoyable for everyone.
Pick Your Powertrain
Ford makes the 2025 Escape available with four distinct powertrains that let you choose how you want to power your getaway. Both 1.5L and 2.0L EcoBoost options are available for those who prefer classic engine designs, with Auto Stop-Start technology that deactivates the motor when stopped for extra efficiency. A Full Hybrid powertrain elevates fuel economy to 42 mpg city / 36 mpg highway, which is perfect for those looking to save at the pump.
For those looking for an easy pathway to go electric for some or all of their daily driving, the Plug-in Hybrid trim of the 2025 Escape is the perfect SUV for the job. The system produces 210 total horsepower, and the electric battery can charge from a regular 120V outlet with the included charge cable. Even better, the Escape Plug-in Hybrid boasts an all-electric range of 37 miles and an overall efficiency of 101 MPGe combined.
Urban-Adapted, Getaway-Gifted
With a compact frame and excellent efficiency, the 2025 Escape is perfectly adapted to urban adventuring. A generous cargo compartment can contain over 34 cubic feet of bags and belongings behind the second row, and over 60 cubic feet of goodies with the back seat folded down. The back seat also slides forward and back by almost 6 inches to maximize legroom or cargo space as needed.
When the time comes for a getaway, the Escape is ready to roll. All-wheel drive is available on almost every model, adding off-road potential to its repertoire. It’s even smart enough to disengage AWD when it’s not needed to maximize fuel efficiency. A towing capacity of up to 3,500 pounds when properly configured means it has the capability to bring along plenty of extras.
Effortless Technology
One glance at the available 13.2-inch infotainment display in the 2025 Escape gives drivers an idea of how important a role technology plays. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity both come wirelessly, and some models even feature Alexa Built-in capability for effortless smart home integration. An available 360-degree camera makes it easy to keep safe entering and exiting parking spots, as does the available Blind Spot Information System.
The Escape can also act as your family’s on-the-go Wi-Fi hotspot with the subscription-enabled FordPass Connect, keeping everyone connected even on long journeys far from home.
