Personally like interior trim, smooth ride, and many extra features in the Titanium Hybrid. Added a hitch for small towing needs, installed by Ford. Factory installed would have been ideal but wasn’t in stock at time of purchase. I am particularly impressed with mileage. So far approx 43% of my overall miles are electric, however mostly short haul trips. No regrets! Very happy so far but time will tell how it holds up.

Our 2021 Escape Hybrid/Titanium if fabulous- 51 MPG in the first 10 mile trip driving home from the dealer and I have pictures to prove it! We have been getting 45-56 MPG with mid-range gas in our daily driving-mid 40s on the highway at 70 mph with the AC running and mid 50s on two lane roads and in city traffic generally 45mph or less. The Hybrid drive and CVT make it very smooth starting and stopping which is very important for a family member who has had extensive neck and back issues and the battery pack shifts the center of gravity back toward the rear wheels making the hybrid much more nimble than the fully gas powered Escape. It's AWD and navigates the narrow, poorly maintained mountain road to our home with no issues. Power is more than adequate on the highway. We are very happy with this vehicle.

Car bought brand new in September 2020. In April I brought car into dealer because rear shocks were leaking , drivers door broke, brake issues and auto hatchback had hit me in the head while loading car . I just got this car back two weeks ago . Hatchback and brake issue not resolved . When you spend 40000 thousand on a car do don’t expect to have these kind of issues as well as not having the car for 6 months .Dealership dropping the ball many times adding to the frustration along be unable to reach any executives in the corporate office

This has been a wonderful car for us.. Living in Wyoming thru this LONG winter we got our worst mileage of 34.9 driving at 5 degrees F in snowy conditions in February.. all of our other long trips have been over 44 mpg .. last 629 mile on a tank at 47.8 from Richfield Utah home .. at freeway speeds and weather in the 30s.. Comfortable.. easy graphics, fine voice command GPS and just plain fun to drive.. Have not tried an overnite camp someplace but will nice back seat room and comfort for others as well.. UPDATE: Purchased this car new in July of 21.. since then we have done much Wyoming off road driving (carefully) and taken 3 long road trips north and south.. this is the best riding and mileage vehicle out there in its class.. Only down to 35 mpg once ( A trip to Gillette wy at 23 below in sleety road conditions) all other mileage checks (absolutely done every tankful ) have been over 43mpg.. Last 4 tanks all over 630 miles traveled per tank have been between 45-47 mpg.. we do drive carefully but always around the speed limit... what a wonderful vehicle and exceeds our friends with the Toyota Rav 4 mileage by 10 mpg normally.... a 5 star investment for anyone
