Reviews Summary In one of the most competitive segments in the automotive landscape, the Escape is a stalwart fixture, enjoying continuous production for the last 16 years. In that time, we’ve seen the majority of SUVs take the same approach of car chassis and truck body to deliver the best of both worlds with only a slight penalty to either design’s performance or usability. It’s no surprise then that the Escape is among the best options out there, with agile handling, stout engine options, and comfortable seating.
Reviews Summary If you’re looking to impress potential new customers with your luxury crossover, tossing a Mustang engine under the hood is a good start. Never mind that it’s not the V8—a turbo 4-cylinder doesn’t mean what it once did. The last time a Mustang had a turbo four was back in the mid-'80s with the SVO, a car my father actually owned. Also a 2.3-liter engine, the SVO managed just 175 hp and still impressed for the time. This time around we're looking at nearly 300, and with the torque to match. Add some sexy interior materials, an optional adaptive suspension, and a panoramic sunroof, and you’ve got a crossover that’s hard to ignore.
