Continue reading to see if the 2022 Escape is the right SUV for you and your passengers.
Exterior Design
Sleek Exterior
The 2022 Ford Escape effortlessly blends modern automotive design sensibilities with the bold silhouette and aesthetics drivers have come to expect from Ford vehicles. With the available SE Sport Appearance Package, drivers can further enhance the SUV’s design with 19” aluminum wheels, black front and rear bumpers, a gloss-black five-bar upper grille, and other unique features.
Panoramic Vista Roof
With the available Panoramic Vista Roof, drivers will be able to enjoy the beautiful outdoors from the cabin of the 2022 Ford Escape. This roof features a large panel that can be tilted upward or fully opened, in addition to a fixed rear skylight. The roof extends far, allowing drivers in both the front and rear rows to enjoy the outside world.
Interior Design
Convenience Meets Comfort
The interior of the 2022 Ford Escape comes equipped with an impressive loadout of interior amenities, ensuring every passenger feels right at home. The SUV’s Rotary Gear Shift Dial was designed to take up less room than a traditional gear shift lever, opening up space for a larger centre bin, more cupholders, and greater USB port accessibility than in many other SUVs currently available.
Versatile Seating
The second-row 60/40 split-fold flat seats found inside the 2022 Ford Escape can be adjusted to provide more passenger or cargo space. The seats can be slid back for additional leg space, or folded and slid forward to make room for more cargo.
Performance
Remarkable Power
The 2022 Ford Escape comes standard with a turbocharged, three-cylinder, 1.5-litre engine attached to an eight-speed automatic transmission system. This engine produces 181 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque. Drivers looking for even greater power and capability will prefer the turbocharged, four-cylinder, 2.0-litre engine, which outputs 250 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque.
Selectable Driving Modes
Every 2022 Ford Escape features multiple driving modes, allowing drivers to tailor their vehicle’s handling and performance to the conditions around them. By default, this system comes standard with Eco, Sport, Normal, and Slippery driving modes. A Deep Snow/Sand driving mode is also available in select trim levels.
| Engine Specifications: | Horsepower | Torque (lb.-ft.) | Fuel Consumption (4×4 w/ Start/Stop) (City/Highway L/100 km) |
| 1.5L Engine | 181 | 190 | 8.5 / 6.8 |
| Turbo 2.0L Engine | 250 | 280 | 10.5 / 7.5 |
Technology
SYNC 3 Infotainment
The 2022 Ford Escape features a SYNC 3 infotainment system, an in-cabin multimedia centre designed to keep the driver’s eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel. Featuring a voice command system and a streamlined touchscreen interface, SYNC 3 allows drivers to safely make phone calls, play music, and more.
Available Wireless Charging
Worried about your devices losing their charge during travel? With the available wireless charging pad found in select 2022 Ford Escape models, drivers can conveniently charge their devices while on the go. All drivers need to do is set their device on top of the centre console’s charging pad, and the system will automatically begin charging.
Safety
Pre-Collision Assist
The 2022 Ford Escape comes standard with a Pre-Collision Assist feature with Automatic Emergency Braking. When the SUV’s sensors detect a potential collision with a pedestrian or another vehicle, a warning flashes on the dashboard and an audible alert is emitted. If needed, the system will automatically apply the brakes to avoid or mitigate the collision.
Active Park Assist 2.0
Select configurations of the 2022 Ford Escape feature an Active Park Assist 2.0 system, which aids the driver in squeezing into tight parallel or reverse perpendicular parking spots. To activate the system, drivers simply need to come to a complete stop, shift to Neutral, and hold down the Active Park Assist system. From there, the vehicle will begin to park on its own, using its various sensors to navigate with finesse and precision.
