2020 Ford Escape Hybrid SE Sport AWD - POV First Driving Impressions

[@paulnguyen4495]

My rental was a Titanium with the 2.0 EcoBoost and AWD. I am a Toyota/Lexus guy at heart, but my lord it was a pleasure to drive. Very comfortable, with nicely dampened suspension however it did not compromise handling. Extremely quiet, not as quiet as my RX but still very impressive compared to other rentals I had. Engine made great power and had no trouble overtaking in Texas traffic. Lane keep assist works amazingly, I barely had to put any inputs, it essentially drove itself the whole time I was there. The only downside is the cheap plastics in the car like Topher said. It was horrendous compared to the cars I have at home. Definitely more plastic than my Rav4. Overall, would not mind buying this used one day for myself or my kids. Good job Ford!

I have the Ford Fusion Hybrid SE which I bought New in 2018. That is an awesome car.I can floor it to 90 mph and pass everyone up, and that's only 145 hp. I'm buying the 2020 Ford escape Hybrid for wife and that's 165 to 200 hp inHybrid. It will run even smoother and faster. I've driven the Toyota Camrys Hybrid too for work. These are evenly good if not better and cheaper. Why would anyone want a regular 28 mpg is dumb and beyond me. I get 565 miles on a full tank for $28 and you can't beat that. Also the regenerative braking makes your brake pads last twice as long. I'll never go back to a mechanical car ever. This is the new standard along with fully electric.

I got a great deal on my current 2010 Fusion Hybrid back in 2011 and it has served me flawlessly 160k miles later. It's my first Ford and I've been extremely impressed with the quality of that car. This definitely does look a bit cheaper, but it's my best option for PHEV since I need something bigger with a lift back like this. Ford's do depreciate faster than Toyota's which makes it a better value for me when buying used. Quite excited

You can rev the engine in a Prius. 4. Deep snow/sand shuts off traction control and maintains wheel spin. Slippery mode does the opposite: controls wheel slip and reduces throttle input.

I ordered a 2022 titanium. Specifically didn’t order the phev because I wanted and. Didn’t look at Toyota RAV4 because the closest dealer is 60 miles away. Ford is in town.

[@124thDragoon]

from my understanding, this type of hybrid drivetrain (the Toyota-esque planetary gearset CVT kind) doesn't actually have a dedicated reverse gear. To drive in reverse it simply runs the "smaller" electric motor backwards. Normally this motor is tasked with simply being the 'transmission' of the vehicle - it's action on the planetary gear set is what gives you your variable gear ratios. It doesn't actually apply much torque to the wheels. It's also the electric motor (again, there are two of them) tasked with doubling as a generator as needed. The second, much larger electric motor seems to be quieter than the first. Because of all of this, driving in Reverse is the only time you'd ever hear the first motor in isolation. That's a big part of why it sounds so strange.

[@WanderingAroundAZ]

I'm trying to put together a deal on a 2021 Titanium Hybrid FWD in the same red color. I test drove a Toyota RAV4 Limited Hybrid earlier the same day. The RAV4 felt more refined and more torque-y, but was also $4K more. The AWD is nice, but I live in Phoenix and rarely experience more than a few wet roads per year.

If you live in Colder climates, the Nickel hydride battery will last longer. The reason why Toyota put the nickel hydride battery on the AWD models is cause people tend to live in colder climates; and the cold is hard on batteries, especially lithium ion ones.

Chris - I have a question. With hybrids such as this new Escape, could one leave this vehicle on for several hours or maybe even a DAY or two at a time whilst retaining uninterrupted access to heating and A/C without consuming a full tank of fuel? (If I were to test this idea out In colder climates I’d keep all zones synced to automatic 72 or so degrees for autonomy.) I imagine, like other hybrids, that the engine stops running when the vehicle is in park and only starts back up to charge the batteries that power all the other functions when it requires. I’m asking this for very specific reasons lol mainly I’m asking because I personally spend a lot of time behind the wheel idling whilst on my phone or whatever. Also thinking that if it’s as efficient at doing this that it’d also be helpful for owners on nights where drinking exceeds safe/legal driving limits and could benefit from a secure, climate controlled, place to sober up without consuming an absurd amount of fuel during their 2-3 hour or so drunk nap.

He’s right though. “Snow” tires haven’t existed for a couple of decades.
