What’s great about the Ford Escape is that it is exceptionally roomy for a compact SUV. The 2024 model lineup of six, including the Plug-in Hybrid, is an impressive selection of vehicles that are excellent choices for the everyday commuter or anyone looking for a ride with plenty of space for passengers, cargo, and everything you need for your day-to-day adventures.
The 2024 Ford Escape is now in its fourth generation of production, carrying over a design refresh and upgrade from 2023. Here we show you why this SUV stands out from its competition.
Key Takeaways

- The 2024 Ford Escape lineup starts with the Active trim and includes the ST-Line, ST-Line Select, ST-Elite, Platinum, and the Plug-in Hybrid option.
- Whether you choose four-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), the 2024 Ford Escape is one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs around.
What’s new for the 2024 Ford Escape?
The 2024 Ford received some major design changes and a facelift in 2023, so no new significant adjustments were necessary this year, which is a testament to the customer support for the current design.
Ford made one adjustment to the lineup: it dropped the Escape Base model and started with the Active trim. Other trims include the ST-Line, ST-Line Select, ST-Elite, Platinum, and the Plug-in Hybrid option.
Why is the Ford Escape popular?
From its fuel efficiency to its off-road capability for its size, the 2024 Ford Escape is a popular SUV with Ford enthusiasts. From the exterior elements with standout style coast-to-coast LED light bar to the sleek interior with its Panoramic Vista Roof, the new 2024 Escape delivers.
There is plenty of legroom and space inside the cabin, and the second-row seats slide for even more legroom. The front of the cabin is set up with the driver in mind and keeps you comfortable in plush contour bucket seats, available in the ST-Line trim.
There are powerful yet lightweight engine options, including the 1.5L EcoBoost, 2.0L EcoBoost, and 2.5L Hybrid engine. Both gas-powered engines have auto-start technology, and with the 2.5L engine, you’re producing 250 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft of torque, giving you enough power to push through the tough jobs.
The included advanced safety technology and entertainment features make the 2024 Ford Escape more attractive than ever before. The standard 8-inch infotainment touchscreen can be upgraded to a 13.2-inch display on the Active and ST-Line trims, and this large touchscreen is standard on the top trims, the Platinum and the Plug-in Hybrid.
Ford keeps you and everyone on board safe through driver-focused safety assist features, including the Ford-CoPilot360 system which is included in every Ford Escape model in 2024.
How many miles per gallon does the 2024 Ford Escape get?
Whether you choose four-wheel drive (FWD) or all-wheel drive (AWD), the 2024 Ford Escape is one of the most fuel-efficient SUVs around. When equipped with the standard 1.5L EcoBoost engine with FWD, it gets an incredible 27 MPG city, 33 MPG highway, and 30 MPG combined.
Is Ford discontinuing the Ford Escape in 2025?
While the Ford Escape has been a key part of the company's SUV lineup, we have seen reports that Ford has plans to discontinue production of the Ford Escape either in 2025 or 2026. Based on reports, we expect the Escape to continue to wind down production and entirely discontinue the Ford Escape to focus on electric and hybrid vehicles.
