Ford Escape for Sale near Philadelphia
The Ford Escape is the epitome of a well-rounded compact crossover. It offers roomy accommodations and a flexible cargo area without imposing space requirements. And it's nicely equipped with many appealing features, including advanced Co-Pilot360™ driver aids as standard equipment. It's also available in numerous powertrain variants, including a potent turbo-four, an efficient hybrid, and a plug-in hybrid with impressive electric-only range. The Ford Escape is a great pick for Philadelphia-area shoppers seeking more versatility from their daily driver without compromising city-friendly maneuverability. And it's available here at Robin Ford in Glenolden.
Performance
Most Escape models are motivated by a 1.5-liter turbocharged three-cylinder that makes 181 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque. An eight-speed automatic transmission sends power to the front wheels, or you can equip any trim with all-wheel drive for more surefooted handling and control in inclement conditions.
While the base engine offers strong fuel economy (EPA-estimated 30 mpg in FWD), you can further increase your miles per gallon with a 2.5-liter Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder hybrid. Standard in Titanium and available for SE and SEL models, this fuel-sipping powertrain makes 200 horsepower while achieving an EPA-estimated 41 mpg combined.
If performance is a priority for your Philadelphia commute, the Escape offers a punchy 2.0-liter EcoBoost as an option for SEL and Titanium trims. It makes 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque and comes standard with all-wheel drive.
Finally, there's the 221-horsepower Escape Plug-in Hybrid. With an EPA-estimated 105 MPGe and ~37 miles of electric-only range, it's a great way to experience EV ownership without a full commitment to battery power. Plus, it's easy to live with and capable of fully recharging its battery overnight (~10 hours) with a standard 3-pin 120V household power outlet.
Interior
The 2022 Ford Escape delivers big practicality despite its "compact" designation. The cozy cabin offers spacious accommodations for all five riders, with ample headroom and legroom in both rows and seats that provide long-distance comfort. Shoppers can also equip the Escape with many experience-enhancing amenities, like leatherette or leather upholstery, a hands-free liftgate, driver-position memory settings, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, and a heated steering wheel.
The Escape's sliding second row allows you to prioritize rear-seat legroom or expand the cargo area from 33.5 to 37.5 cubic feet. Or you can fold the 60/40-split rear seatbacks to access the Escape's maximum cargo capacity of 65.4 cubes.
Infotainment and Safety
Ford's advanced SYNC 3 system comes standard on all but the base tier, providing seamless and intuitive connectivity. The 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system also includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for access to apps and features like hands-free communications, Google or Apple Maps, streaming media, and more via a familiar smartphone-like interface.
Safety is never just an option, which is why the Ford Escape comes standard with Co-Pilot360™ driver aids, including:
- Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
- BLIS (Blind Spot Information System)
- Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
- Lane Keeping Assist
- Auto High-Beam Headlamps
Even more technologies are available via Co-Pilot360™ Assist+. Optional for SE and SEL models and standard with the Titanium trim, this package includes driver aids like Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping System, Evasive Steering Assist, and onboard Navigation.
