The Escape is fundamentally unchanged for 2018, but there are some tweaks to the lineup and to its standard-equipment offerings.The SEL comes standard with leather-trimmed seating, a power liftgate, heated exterior mirrors, an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and LED running lights.

smooth ride,
attractive and intuitive infotainment system.

turbo engines return mediocre fuel economy.

The 2018 Ford Escape has the road manners of another kind of car—but don't worry, it still works well as a crossover.

Pros
Tough-hatch lines
Ample cargo bin
Wonderfully taut handling
Tech options aplenty
Brisk 2.0-liter acceleration

Cons
Busy, space-robbing dash
Firm seats, if you’re not into that
Not much SUV, if you’re into that
Optimistic EPA ratings

Concentrates on what matters in a small SUV - looking and feeling different to a hatch.

Pros
Good powertrains,
electric version,
unusual looks inside and out

Cons
A bit softer than rivals in the bends,
can get pricey

By:

The DS 3 Crossback turn heads and has an interior that’ll impress. However, plenty of alternatives are more intuitive to use, bigger inside and come with larger boots.

Pros
Stylish interior
Comfy over bumps
Lots of personalisation options

Cons
Fiddly interior buttons
Alternatives are cheaper…
… and more practical
