2010 Ford Escape Review

The base engine offered by your local 2010 Ford Escape dealer is a 2.5L 171hp 171 lb-ft I4 that reaches its maximum power at 6000 revolutions per minute. It features a 960-pound payload capacity with maximum towing ability measured at 1500 pounds. And, when properly equipped, it can tow up to 3500 pounds - more than almost every other vehicle in its class is able to tow. Fill up the 16.5 gallon fuel tank and you'll be able to travel over 400 miles before needing fuel again because this small SUV delivers 22/28 mpg city/highway.

The 2010 Ford Escape is a carryover from the comprehensively upgraded 2008 model. It has proven itself well and earned the right to be called the perennial highest selling small-sized sport utility vehicle on the U.S. market. It has character. It has mass appeal. And it is refined to a surprising degree for its relatively inexpensive dealer price. It has been deliberately styled by Ford engineers to take on a combination of the looks presented by the Explorer and the Expedition. Its seating position and height of ride look over competitors like the Honda CR-V, Mercury Mariner and the Chevrolet HHR Panel.

The new 2010 Ford Escape for sale rides smoothly and handles with appreciable agility. There is an optional V6 engine available that provides faster acceleration times, but the stock engine is more than adequate for almost every driving scenario. The I4, V6 and the hybrid versions of the Ford Escape all provide owners with seriously respectable EPA estimations for fuel efficiency. Most of the competition cannot compare. Three trims are available. You can choose between the XLS, the XLT and the Limited. Further, each trim is available as either front-wheel drive or four-wheel drive.

Comfortable seating for four is included with the 2010 Escape. Inside, you will find plenty of headroom as well as more than adequate space for hauling cargo, especially when you fold down the second row of seating. An upscale, quite pleasing interior surrounds you as well. Switches, knobs and controls are all located excellently and are very convenient to utilize.

Standard safety features for the base 2010 Ford Escape dealer quote include a benchmark array. Purchasers will be treated to the Ford Safety Canopy System airbag configuration, the Roll Stability Control system, ABS and driveline electronic traction control, key fob remote keyless entry, a panic alarm, the SecuriLock engine disabling system, dual-staged door locks and various other standard features. It's really hard to outdo it. And all of this comes to you with invoice pricing beginning at $19,373 and ranging up to $25,089. If you're in the market for a small SUV, then the new Ford Escape should definitely be placed on your short list.
