New Front-End Design

The 2023 Ford Escape’s front end has been completely redesigned, ensuring you make an entrance as soon as you roll onto the scene.

Higher trims received additional lighting updates, so be sure to check them out!

2023 Ford Escape Lineup

Ford Escape ST-Line

This all-new, super sporty addition is available on three models. It provides a more rugged appearance – one that matches the 180-horsepower, 1.5L EcoBoost engine you’ll find under the base trim’s hood. The ST-Line comes standard with front-wheel drive, and all-wheel drive available. It also comes as a hybrid model with front-wheel drive.

Upgrade from the base model to the better equipped ST-Line Select or ST-Line Elite, both powered by a 250-horsepower, 2.0L EcoBoost engine. All-wheel drive comes standard, and like the base trim, there is an eco-friendly hybrid model available.

ST-Line will feature a sporty, series-specific black mesh grille, rear skid plate and a distinctive single-wing rear spoiler. 18-inch Rock Metallic painted aluminum wheels complete the look! The roomy cabin has been revamped as well, with black upholstery accented with red stitching, a flat-bottom steering wheel, and more!

2023 Ford Escape Hybrid Models

Ford is bringing back two hybrid choices: a full hybrid model and a plug-in hybrid! These environmentally-friendly options not only save drivers money at the pump, but time too! While even traditional gas-powered models boast impressive fuel efficiency, the full hybrid model has an EPA-estimated 550-mile range!

Plug-in hybrid models, powered by a fourth-generation hybrid propulsion system (2.5-liter Atkinson cycle hybrid engine and electronic continuously variable transmission), offer an EPA-estimated 37-mile range in all-electric mode. There are four EV modes to choose from to boost efficiency and performance: Auto EV, EV Now, EV Later, and EV Charge. Plus, the 2023 Ford Escape PHEV comes with a Level 1 / Level 2 AC charging port.

Stay Connected with Ford Sync 4 System

Now standard with Ford’s Sync 4 system, the 2023 Ford Escape makes connectivity more convenient than ever before. It links drivers with their smartphone, displaying a host of features on the 13.2-inch infotainment screen (8-inch standard on base trims). Check out the following:

  • Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
  • Steering assist
  • Wireless charging pads
  • 360-degree camera views
  • Connected Built-In Navigation (traffic updates, directions, and more!)

Available Ford Co-Pilot360 technology now includes an innovative new feature: Intersection Assist 2.0, designed to help you avoid pedestrian collisions while turning. The 2023 Ford Escape will also come with Blind Spot Assist, a brand-new feature that will use side view mirror lights and steering wheel nudges to alert you of unseen vehicles if you miss warnings from the Blind Spot Information System.
