Capability to Explore
It's a big world out there. Escape lets you hit the road and explore it with your choice of three different engines. To help keep you in control, there's also the available All-Wheel Drive with AWD Disconnect and standard Selectable Drive Modes. AWD not available on Escape Plug-in Hybrid.
Hybrid 2.5L iVCT Atkinson-Cycle I-4 Engine
The 2.5L I-4 Atkinson-cycle powertrain features an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission (eCVT) and a 96 kW electric motor. Also, the Escape Hybrid packages its liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery smartly outside of the passenger compartment below the floor of the second-row seats rather than occupying a significant portion of the cargo area. The briefcase-shaped battery in the standard hybrid measures less than one-third the size of the previous-generation Escape Hybrid battery. *
*See a Ford EV-certified dealer for details.
Plug-in 2.5L iVCT Atkinson-Cycle I-4 Engine
The 2022 Escape Plug-in Hybrid* has a Level 1/Level 2 AC charging port. Using the standard 110-volt Level 1 charger, the estimated time to fully charge the battery is 10 to 11 hours. Using an optional 240-volt Level 2 charger, charge time drops to roughly 3.5-4.5 hours, depending on outlet amperage. ** What's more, the design of the 2022 Escape allows for the battery to be stored outside the passenger compartment, which frees up space in the cabin, offering plug-in customers more room without sacrificing space for the battery.
*See a Ford EV-certified dealer for details.
**Charge time based on manufacturer computer engineering simulations. The charging rate decreases as battery reaches full capacity. Your results may vary based on peak charging times and battery state of charge.
AWD with AWD Disconnect
Available All-Wheel Drive with AWD Disconnect can disable the rear driveline when the system detects AWD is not needed. This allows only the front wheels to propel the vehicle, reducing drag and the overall energy demands of the drivetrain. AWD not available on Escape Plug-in Hybrid.
Towing Capability
When equipped with the Class II Trailer Tow Package, Escape Hybrid or Escape Plug-in Hybrid* with the 2.5L iVCT Atkinson-cycle hybrid engine have a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 lbs. **
*See a Ford EV-certified dealer for details.
**Max towing varies based on cargo, vehicle configuration, accessories and number of passengers.
