Design
Striking exterior
The heart of Escape’s exterior is a dynamic six-point grille. Sporting an athletic hood design, sleek body lines, and boldly sculpted wheel arches – Escape is perfectly poised and ready for anything.
The perfect sized cabin
Escape's adaptable rear storage and versatile 60/40 split rear seats offer ample space for... well, almost anything. A reconfigured centre console is equipped with a media bin to stow your essentials and charge your devices on the go. A new ergonomic 3-spoke steering wheel feels just right in your hands. And the traditional handbrake has been replaced with an electonic parking brake - creating even more space.
Power opening panoramic roof
Taking up almost 50% of your roof space the glass roof brings the outdoors in, at the touch of a button.
Live life in colour
Choose between eight colours and bring Ambient Lighting to footwells, door pockets and door handles.
Even the headlights are smart
Twice as powerful as conventional lights, the adaptive bi-xenon HID headlights can detect changing road conditions and adapt beam patters for optional illumination. They even help you see around corners by directing light into a bend when you turn. And during the day, the LED daytime running lamps help make you more visible to other drivers.
Extra Set of Eyes
The Escape’s wide-angle reverse camera automatically activates when the reverse gear is selected. It gives you a clear view of what’s behind you and takes the guess work out of reversing.
Preformance
Power to do more
Responsive, nimble and more than capable of tackling tough road conditions - almost nothing is off limits to the Escape. A choice of cutting-edge EcoBoost engines are designed so you'll spend more time exploring and less time at the fuel pump.
Intelligent All-Wheel Drive
For greater control in challenging conditions, the intelligent All-Wheel Drive system is designed to monitor Escape's performance and adjusts the delivery of torque to each wheel every 16 milliseconds.
Paddle Shifters
Similar to gear shifters used by racing drivers, Escape's Paddle Shifters allow you to make smooth and effortless gear changes without taking your hands off the wheel or using a clutch.
Active Grille Shutter
When it comes to fuel efficiency, a great engine is just the beginning. Escape features an Active Grille Shutter which closes to reduce aerodynamic ‘drag’ and opens to help cool the engine when required – so you save even more on fuel.
The Power of Choice
Escape's 1.5L & 2.0L EcoBoost™ engines combine turbocharging and direct injection technology to maximise power from every compression while helping you save on fuel. Enjoy all the low-end torque you need to effortlessly haul virtually any family-sized load.
Auto Start-Stop
Why waste fuel at idle? Escape knows when you've stopped at lights or stuck in traffic and shuts down the engine automatically. When you're ready to drive again, just press the accelerator and the engine restarts.
Torque Vectoring Control
Escape is engineered to handle all life's twists and turns. On winding roads or when manoeuvring tight bends, Torque Vectoring Control transfers torque to the wheels with the most grip, to help enhance control and virtually eliminate under-steer.
Safety

Enhanced Active Park Assist
Say goodbye to the stress of parallel and perpendicular parking. First Enhanced Park Assist helps you find a park. It then helps to steers you in and even helps you steer out while you work the gears, accelerator and brake.
Parking made easy
Goodbye traditional hand brake. Escape's space-saving electronic parking brake lets you park securely with the touch of a button. Put Escape into reverse and the rear view camera turns on automatically, allowing you to clearly see objects behind you. At the same time, rear parking sensors beep to help let you know how close you are to any hidden obstacles.
Hands-Free Power Tailgate7
The hands-free power tailgate opens (and closes) with a wave of your foot under the bumper. Because chances are, if you’re putting things in the back you’ve probably got your hands full. It even adjusts to the height of your garage.
Worry-free hill starts
Take your foot off the brake pedal and Hill Launch Assist9 holds the brakes for a few seconds, giving you time to smoothly accelerate away. Whether you're facing uphill or down.
