2024 FORD ESCAPE HYBRID REVIEW

EV Channels Review

The 2024 Ford Escape Hybrid Platinum is reviewed, highlighting its significantly improved ride comfort over previous sport-tuned models, thanks to its softer suspension. The interior is praised for its modern design and large, intuitive screens, though the reviewer notes the absence of ventilated front seats and heated rear seats as a notable omission, especially on higher trims. While the powertrain offers a combined 192 horsepower and impressive fuel economy (5.6L/100km city, 6.5L/100km highway), the reviewer finds the top trims to be pricey, particularly when factoring in optional packages. Despite this, the Platinum model's smoother ride and the availability of features like a panoramic sunroof are seen as significant advantages. Safety scores are excellent, with a 5-star NHTSA rating.
