This car drives well, is comfortable and efficient, but my favorite part has to be the panoramic sunroof! It’s the perfect vehicle for traveling and enjoying your favorite views from every angle!

Only problem is gas mileage.

I absolutely love my 2018 Escape SE. I have the sport trim in red and it just looks so good- with the black painted rims and outer trim, makes the ruby red color really pop. The interior is nice without being over the top, but not bland either. The engine is peppy enough to serve just about any merging needs, but the engine really shines when put into S "sport" mode. The pick up and handling in S mode makes you feel like you're driving a sports car, making the already smooth drive even more fun. I hadn't driven a Ford in about 10 years, and driving the Escape in the S mode feels like I'm behind the wheel of my V6 Mustang I had when I was a kid. No, the Escape is not the fastest car in the world, but for everyday driving, you won't get much better than this for the price tag. The only reason I took a star off is that gas mileage leaves a little to be desired. I honestly did not pay Escapes much mind until I saw the one I ended up buying. I absolutely recommend it for drivers of all ages. My two young kids sit comfortably in their booster seats in the back, without feeling cramped for space, which is much more than I can say for my last SUV I ditched for the Escape.

The smoothest riding vehicle I've ever owned. It drives like a car with the space like an SUV. I also have a couple of extra bonuses like heated seats and a sun roof. It was my dream vehicle and still is! I just wish the audio volume would go a little higher when connected to Bluetooth.
