2025 Ford Escape

The 2025 Ford Escape is available in five trims: Active, ST-Line, ST-Line Select, Platinum, and ST-Line Elite. The Active trim features 17-inch alloy wheels with all-season tires that enhance its road presence. Dual chrome exhaust tips give the ST-Line a sporty, stylish appearance. For added convenience, the ST-Line Select includes a power liftgate. The Platinum trim incorporates a panoramic vista roof, providing an open, airy cabin feel. With its sport-tuned suspension, the ST-Line Elite delivers enhanced driving dynamics.

The Active, ST-Line, and ST-Line Select trims, powered by a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine generating 180 horsepower and 199 pound-feet of torque, deliver a balanced combination of efficiency and performance. The ST-Line Elite and Platinum trims feature a more powerful 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine producing 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque, ensuring confident acceleration for highway merging or passing. All trims come with an eight-speed automatic transmission, providing smooth and responsive shifts for an engaging drive. Both engines feature auto start-stop technology to improve efficiency during city commutes and reduce emissions.

The Intelligent All-Wheel Drive system, available on most trims, dynamically distributes torque between the front and rear wheels, improving traction on slippery or uneven surfaces. Every trim includes selectable drive modes — Eco, Normal, and Sport — that allow drivers to tailor the Escape's performance to their preferences or road conditions. The ST-Line Elite's sport-tuned suspension enhances cornering stability and reduces body roll for a more dynamic driving experience. With a towing capacity of up to 3,500 pounds when properly equipped, the Escape also offers versatility for light towing needs.

The Active and ST-Line trims feature an 8-inch digital instrument cluster, while the ST-Line Select, Platinum, and ST-Line Elite upgrade to a larger 12.3-inch version for better visibility and customization. All trims include the SYNC 4 infotainment system with a responsive 13.2-inch touchscreen, providing access to navigation, media, and settings. Dual-zone automatic climate control comes standard across the lineup. The Platinum offers premium leather-trimmed seats with heating, while the ST-Line trims showcase ActiveX seating material with red stitching, blending durability and style. Ample storage compartments and multiple USB ports ensure convenience for all passengers.

Ford Co-Pilot360, standard across all trims, includes pre-collision assist, blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic alert, and a lane-keeping system for comprehensive driver assistance. ST-Line Select, Platinum, and ST-Line Elite add adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality, reducing fatigue during long drives or heavy traffic. Platinum and ST-Line Elite enhance safety with Active Park Assist 2.0 and a 360-degree camera system, providing detailed views for confident maneuvering in tight spaces. Standard post-collision braking and rear occupant alert systems further underscore the Escape's commitment to safety.
