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.

Pros
Graceful turbocharged 2.0-liter engine,
smooth ride,
attractive and intuitive infotainment system.

Cons
Less rear-seat and cargo space than the class leaders,
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

By:

For the 2022 model year, the Kona receives its first major makeover since its 2018 debut. From the outside, it's sharper and sleeker than its predecessors, and a new N Line trim adds a distinctly sporty look.

Pros
Optional turbocharged engine provides quick acceleration
Nimble handling makes it enjoyable to drive
Lots of features for your money
Exciting performance from the Kona N

Cons
Weak base engine
Interior is trimmed with a lot of hard plastic panels

By:

edmunds.com

2022 is the debut year for the Kona crossover that joins the N brand's ranks for the first time ever.

Pros
Engaging handling,
smile-inducing overboost function,
aggressive styling.

Cons
Looks meaner than it is,
loud on the highway,
ride verges on too stiff.

By:

caranddriver.com

PROS
Fun to drive
Worthwhile feature inclusions over i30 N
Funky styling

CONS
Lacking in cabin and cargo room
Cabin can get noisy
i30 N is the smarter choice as a track car
