When it comes to packing SUV capability into an urban-friendly package, it’s tough to beat the 2025 Ford Escape. The Escape blends the best of efficiency and capability in a frame that’s perfectly sized for city driving, all while offering families the perfect range of powertrain options. If you’re looking for a local dealer that can offers Ford Escape leases or inventory to purchase outright, then you’ll want to read more about the features that the Escape offers to drivers all around Howell!

1. Footprint Economy 

The 2025 Escape is a master of maximizing every cubic inch of space, making it a vehicle with incredible capability in a delightfully petite package. The vehicle is just 180.1 inches long in FWD variants, making it the perfect size for cozy garages or cramped parking spots. Yet there’s an incredible amount of cargo volume available, with up to 37.5 cubic feet on offer even with the back seat upright.

Fold the rear seat down, and the Escape becomes a cargo-toting champion. Up to 65.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the first row means never having to wonder if your planned shopping haul will fit inside. Even better, front-row passengers enjoy over 40 inches of legroom in the Escape, making it a great choice for those who like to stretch out as they drive.

2. Creative Seating 

Need to maximize cargo capacity? With sliding second-row seats, each rear seat can move forward or back independently, or the bench can move as a whole. That means you can add almost 6 inches of legroom simply by scooting the rear seat aft, which makes the Escape a perfect vehicle for families with tall teens or full-sized adults who ride in the rear.

3. Efficient Cabin Design 

What if you had even more room in the front for accessories like beverages or snacks? The 2025 Escape uses an innovative rotary gearshift dial, which minimizes the amount of space required and maximizes the amount of utility available in the space up front.

4. Powertrain Versatility

No matter what kind of powertrain you prefer, there’s a 2025 Escape to get your motor running. That’s because the Escape offers four separate powertrain options, making it easy to find your perfect getaway car. For those who prefer conventional powertrains, the Escape comes in 1.5L and 2.0L EcoBoost models, which use Auto Start-Stop to maximize efficiency while also maximizing power and towing capability. Available AWD adds even more capability.

For those who want the eco-friendliness and fuel savings that come with a hybrid, the 2.5L Hybrid engine delivers 192 horsepower and a fuel economy of up to 39 mpg combined. Want to go electric? Take the 2.5L Plug-in Hybrid for a spin. It offers up to 37 miles of all-electric range, making it easy to go gasoline-free for most daily driving needs, and defaults to an efficient hybrid once the battery runs low.

With so many amazing features, it’s time to put them to the test. If a 2025 Ford Escape for sale or a Ford Escape lease sounds right for you, test drive a 2025 Escape today at Bob Maxey Ford of Howell in Howell, MI.
