2020 Ford Escape | The Turbo Alternative
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ก.ย. 2019
- For 2020 Ford has completely redesigned their compact crossover to directly target the top-sellers in the segment. With a standard 1.5L turbo engine, the Escape gives us better performance and better fuel economy than most of the competition and the optional 2.0L turbo and the new 8-speed automatic make the Escape one of the best performing compact crossovers under $40,000.

Sorry for the typo at 1:48... My bad...
We forgive you ... but don't let it happen again. ;)
Lame departure and autonomous barking.
No prob, we still luv you
@@MarkRVillano well it happened at 0:30 too
erlebo LOL😀
Learning what I can about this vehicle before my Carvana Delivery takes place. Im excited and I have you to thank for breaking everything down and making the comparisons. I know that I made the right choice!
Thanks for the great review...I am an Administrative Lieutenant with the Sheriff’s Office in my area and we purchased four of the 2020 S models for some of our school resource Officers. This past Wednesday I went from a 2004 Crown Vic to a 2020 SE model for my assigned vehicle. I thought it was going to ride rough, have no power, be noisy and have no room. Was I pleasantly surprised. Has plenty of power, great ride, quiet and plenty enough room. I actually really like it so far and personally I have a 2020 Ford Explorer Limited with a 2.3 twin turbo ecoboost. For the money I really like the 2020 Escape so far and comes standard with a lot of features. If I had a complaint it would be that the seat appears to be stiff on the back at the bottom and has a little hump that presses against my lower back and is a little uncomfortable and I hope it softens up after use. If I was going to by one personally it would be the Titanium because I like leather and all the goodies. Oh and when I first saw them thought they we ugly but the look is growing on me. Thanks again.
Crisp, concise, comprehensive reviews. Alex, you do the best videos for people wishing to know the facts about vehicles.
If you REALLY want the facts, check "Consumer Reports". This guy's OPINION doesn't mean SQUAT!
Alex, this video was great. Not only did you provide a great deal of info on the Escape, but also about its competitors. Helps me make a decision!
If you pick the ESCAPE over a Mazda or a Toyota, you will be making a BIG MISTAKE!
99% of people never go off road...…...Intentionally !
😂😂...love the intentionally
But you never know when your going to have to get away from the police.
Never even think....
True, but many in North America do have to drive in a blizzard occasionally.
Blizzard season is like off-road. Sedan act like"boating" against snow on front bumper between headlight.
Thank you for doing a video the way its supposed to be done. Everyone else is either SHOUTING LOUDLY, cracking lame jokes, or giving incorrect info. You are personable but direct and to the point - how I like it!
I recently gotten a 2020 Ford Escape SE in black. I got it late Monday afternoon. The following afternoon that I signed all of the paperwork and paid it full. I just realized it is a little bit lower than my 2015 Ford Escape. I loved the Car Apple Play in it. I’m getting better on cruise controls. It is so smooth in driving it.
0:53 Thank you for this chart. It is extremely helpful. No one else does this.
Bought an Se ecoboost model a week ago so far I love it fast when needed and not even broken in yet and already getting 27 mpg
Ride is smooth cargo area great, safety features galore.
This vehicle looks a lot better in person. I think it looks good. I like the interior layout too.
My wife and I thank you for your review. This was one of our top choice and because i showed her all your compact crossovers vids we picked this one!. Thank you man.
Your reviews are amazing. That's for your very articulate and fully informed work!!
I'm lovin' how you find a song or band that subtly refers to the vehicle you're reviewing!!
Your review helped me choose between Rav4 and Escape. With a couple of test drives and your review I was confident to choose the Escape Titanium. Thank you, Alex
Alex seems to do an honest and non biased review unlike many other reviewers who seem very biased.
Yeah, this guy does a great job of reading off the manufacturer's "blurb" sheet....
Best car review of any car channel/Blogger ever of what's not and what is, 👏👏👏 ..Thank you Alex👍
Great review Alex on this ford escape. I just bought a Hybrid and I love it. 42 MPG so far with combined driving.
This review really makes me want one now!
Excellent Detailed Review!🚘📋 Thank you Alex!😊
This looks like an oversize 2019 Ford Focus
its suppose too.. Ford figures an correctly , that's there's No shortage of Truck wanna be SUV's out there, an that women "major buyers of the Escape, are really looking for a wagon without admitting it... Hence the Focus looks.. smart .
That's what a compact SUV is...
Yep, Vickers hardness, compression, tensile, torsion tests. Takes me back to my SJSU days!
It lacks truck like body lines but, the shape seems to be honest about what this car is and what it's not. I like it.
If someone drives a Ford Escape, does it make him/her an escapee!
I would think more of a convict
From the asylum, yes.
That’s the idea
Good one hehe
Knowing Ford the front end will be changed every year
I have a 2014 Escape Titanium that I bought in late 2016. It has only 43000 miles on it. Just this week I ran into a shop and a few minutes later got in my car and tried to back out of my parking space and my power steering went out. The error message was Power Steering Assist Fault -service required. This was estimated to be a $2300 repair - on a car with only 43k miles. I will never buy another Escape.
That’s why I always get a extended service contract. This Escape is getting better customer satisfaction reviews than the current generation RAV4.
Your reviews are awesome!!! Keep 'em coming!
Finally ford has changed their screens and interiors, amazing!
Great great video and insight on this class of SUV. Looking to downsize and this is at the top of the list for me. Thanks so much for all the information
Like the look of this vehicle very very much. Currently drive a Prius V which I really like but Toyota no longer sells in USA. The hybrid plug in will be on my radar in the future. Appreciate your no nonsense videos - yall do a great a job.
An ST Escape would be a nice addition.
Always enjoy your reviews!
As always really enjoyed the review. Liked your explanation of exhaust scavenging on the 4 & 3 cylinder. Incredible that the 3 cylinder can drop a cylinder and still run smoothly.
Heavy counter-weights and flywheel...
I am surprised that the 3cylinder has extra weights to balance it when 3 cylinders are inherently out of balance, and that it still will run smooth when running on 2 cylinders. Really?
I have a 2018 Escape and cannot wait to get into a 2020 or 2021 version. I am looking to buy a Hybrid because of how much driving I do so I will be waiting to test drive one of those and of course test drive the Toyota RAV4 hybrid as well.
Thanks for the video and all of the info!
Amazing video! Straight to the point yet very thurough. :) loved the direct comparision to other compact SUVs.
I believe the "comparison" left out a minor detail..............RELIABILITY!!
A coworker just bought one and it is 100% better than the last generation. Bigger, more power, and alot nicer.
Mike Hoard so it should be problem free for 21,000 miles.
Very good review from Alex as usual. The new Escape is very interesting in every trim. I'm very interested to see what the plug in hybrid is going to offer.
thanks for explaining the awd with the rav etc it helps
I'm two years late!! But I still buy one Alex.
Another solid review; thanks. I like the new styling quite a bit. Is it me, or is the interior and exterior design channeling the CX-5? Seems like a very strong influence, which makes sense as the CX-5 is easily the most attractive car in the segment (including the more expensive luxury models).
That long as hood on a cx5 is just gross. Never understood the love for Mazda. Their vehicles are horrid period.
Beautiful exterior design execution.
Very good review, Alex! The lease on my 2017 Fusion SEL will be up shortly and I am looking to upgrade into an Escape. I'll probably take the Escape SE model. I won't be giving up much stepping down one series. In fact, the Escape SE will have equipment I don't currently have on my Fusion SEL. Good to know Ford has been making 3-cyl engines in Europe for some time now. I currently have a 1.5T GDI 4-cyl which has the same hp (181) as the new 3-cyl. The Escape is a well-packaged compact CUV. I look forward to driving it.
Another Fantastic and extremely informative review. The Escape is worth a look as it has more interior people space and a quieter ride than the cramped, slower and rather noisy Rav4. This new Escape also has engine options and better performance than the Forester, I sure wish Subaru would add they're new regular gas 2.4 Turbo with its solid mpg figures as an option, but Sadly they don't want to give people options...Thanks again, Ford.
Well prepared video representation ,thanks
I hope things turn out well with this new 3 popper. It definitely the most interesting power train in the segment right now.
sadly a big NO,engine turned out to be a hand grenade.
Welcome to Louisville! It took a moment, but I noticed the backgrounds. I glad the hometown CUV is doing good. To be honest, I'm interested after your test.
Also Bardstown.
Kentucky will be building two Hybrid CUVs when RAV4 production starts in Georgetown.
Can’t wait to get one!
Excellent review
Great video, so much straightforward information! (unlike the other channels that try to be witty to no avail)
You’re the best reviewer on TH-cam, Alex. Thank you again.
14:17 Alex, what an artistic shot. It looks like you are driving backwards.
Looks like the Focus had a 3way with a CX5 & RAV4 & this is there baby
Edward Conner I don’t think three ways work that way but I get what your saying
And we need Maury to determine paternity.
Them Focuses be such THOTS.
@dchawk81
"You ARE the father !!!!!". haha
@@watershed44 The paternity test determined THAT'S A LIE!
😂
Can’t wait to see you do the 2021 Ford Edge titanium elite. I just ordered one Love to see you do a video of one hope you can get one it got an 83 rating on consumer reports second best In it’s class
I don't love the style but I do love the powertrain options. Since you mentioned it, I would definitely have to have comfortable seating since I'm 6' tall. I would love to see the more aggressive off road style but let's face it. I'm a commuter not an off roader. I would consider this vehicle.
Hope you enjoyed your time in Bardstown and Nelson County.
Can't wait to see what the off road or st version will be like!
@17:14.."..we don't have to rev the nuts off of it". Great double entendre!!
Rockwell scale hardness testing. Btw, the leather seats are trimmed on the sides with pleather if I'm not mistaken. That stuff, on my oldish Flex, is cracking and looking quite bad.
Excellent, unbiased review as usual. Though the styling of this leaves me flat, I’m eagerly awaiting the arrival of this platform under a baby Bronco body.
As a Ford guy I love the design and the fact that it has a Teutonic feel to it. As a man who is 6’2 and is mostly torso and longer in the thighs, shorter in the calves I’m going to have to see if I’m comfortable with the seats. I wish that it had extendable seat bottoms like many cars have such as Lincoln’s so that I could be assured. In view of our looming inflating fuel prices this appears to be a great vehicle for the decade.
FYI, there are a LOT BETTER SUVs out there, especially if you want something RELIABLE. Looks will not get you down the road!
Vickers hardness testing must be soft touch big indentations, great report
I have a 2020 Ford Escape SE in black. I just have it a little bit over a year. Before it was a 2015 Ford Escape SE in silver grey. My last vehicle that I had for almost 5 years before it died on me. I liked everything in my Ford Escape. It took me about 2 weeks on the controls in the newer Escape.
“Rev the nuts off of it”. Made me laugh.
Looks like a nice rental car.
Lyfters will love it.
Great Review those taillights look exactly like the RAV4 a little different though
I Love my New 2020 Ford Escape, Very Fun and Sleek and Love the great Take Off!! ♥️
Great take off wth 3 cylinder engine?
@@spol1622 yes pretty good for this type of engine in Sport Mode!
That start/stop button seems odd, but it's made to use with your right hand thumb. It feels natural after learn that way.
I noticed the same thing.
Looks like a sales winner
Alex it looks just like the Rv4 in the back
Great review. Nice job ford.
Well done review Alex. The Fusion is a well styled and optioned alternative to the competition. It should fill the gap with no car version (Focus) of this platform. Everything looks well done including your review. Can’t tone down the foreign brand lovers!!
This escspe looks great !!...and reminds me on porsche macan, cayenne and some ferrari (front end); Interior is solid and proportional, love the diamond indents inside doors- it adds freshness and dynamic, not boring. Last but not least- as always great and informative review, thanks Alex.
Except base Escape has 3 cylinder engine....and that is not Porsche-like..
@@spol1622 the price also is not like Porsche 😂
How can these guy drive a car while sputtering out dozens of facts per minutes without a second of silent time and not a single err. This guy Alex is an oratory robot and obviously knows every fact about the Escape and more. I am impressed with his tech knowledge and certainly would trust his input on other cars
What bothered me with Ford’s last generation Escape is that the power figures and fuel economy for the EcoBoosts were tested with 91 octane fuel and were worse with 87 octane. Their advertised MPGs weren’t even close to the real world use, even with premium fuel. With 87, it dropped even more.
I’m afraid that still holds true with the 2020 model’s EcoBoosts too.
I love how you Americans call 91 a premium fuel. ;) To us its 95 or 98.
The 2.0 ecoboost is awesome I need passing power !!
Front looks like a porsche
Looks like a comfortable car to be in!
Please make sure to review the plugin.
I'm in CA and if the Escape Plugin qualifys for HOV stickers---I'm probably in.
I would take a look at the new escape 2.0 titanium version
Which trim has the navigation system ? Thank you for a detailed ,professional review .
Start/stop button is angled so you rest your hand on the dash at and angle and use your thumb to start.
Yeah, when you use your thumb it make sense. Ford was just stupid to put piano black at the area where you rest your hand.
I tried that and it still felt awkward
The Pirelli Scorpion Verde all season tires ride quiet with good rain traction and might last 70,000 miles. The Pirelli P4 tires might last 100,000 miles. I found that my Michelin tires got age cracks before the tread was worn out.
The reverse camera thing messes with my mind Alex!
I hope ford took this long to do a Deactivating cylinder because it’s gonna be more reliable than the Ram and GM versions.
Wow the spare tire has an actual rim
Note for your video: for 2020 the CRV has the 1.5T standard and a hybrid
Anything to get the news off of fuel dilution of Honda Earth Dreams 1.5t.
When can I expect Lincoln Corsair review from your channel? thank you.
Wish you would of done another video on the Escape. I've seen enough Rav4 and CR-V videos.
The back reminds me of when you tuck in that one flap while gift wrapping LUL
I'ma need you to demonstrate on all my presents this year because I dunno what you're talking about. K thnx.
Sounds like the Escape does all things well!
buildmorefarms100 except for the looks...
@@bradyb9929 That's debatable. I think it looks great. People keep saying that it looks like a Kia or Mazda and that's actually a good thing. A box on wheels is so 2000.
@@bradyb9929 reminds me of a Porsche Macan!
There is the ST Line trim but not available in the US.
My last 3 cylinder was a Chevy Metro. I'll bet this is better :-)
Those taillights are borderline identical to the rav4 ones lol
Definitely the same
Both vehicles probably had the design before the other was even revealed
@Greg
Nah. My guess is the vendor that makes these lights (for Ford and Toyota) uses the same production equipment and similar design allows the plant to make both easily.
@guy proulx The Focus in Europe had these tail lights before the Rav4.
@guy proulx Ok. Not sure how the powershift transmission was at all relevant to the conversation about the tail lights we were having. The new Focus did away with it anyway.
I'm hoping the ST division has plans for a ST vs some time next yr.
I like it and will buy in 2 years time when my current lease ends
I say wait at least 3 model year for them to get the bugs out.
Don't have to rev the nuts off it 😂
The hybrid will be awesome
I have Ford Fusion Energi, and it seems it was better even in 2017. What is new???
Is this more fun to drive then the CX-5 and does it handle better as well?
Tech stack in this is way better than Ford Lincoln just a few years ago!! This tech in the Ford makes the escape/edge really close to 2019 MKC/Nautilus.
Great review. I was ready to upgrade from my 2017 until it became clear that the cargo area behind the back seat had been reduced by a fair bit and doesn't serve my needs for dog and cargo very well anymore. There needs to be more of a difference between an SUV and a Sedan in that regard. Very unfortunate choice by Ford.
Seriously the cargo area is tiny. My S80s trunk is a great deal deeper than the Escape. Kinda weird given they're the same length. I cant carry nearly as much now.
