Reviews SummarySince arriving in 2001, the Ford Escape has been a stalwart among compact crossovers and sport utility vehicles. This year, Ford refreshes the trucklet’s design with a chrome grille, a taller beltline, and less (but more heavily styled) plastic cladding on the running boards. But with the same set of engines and bones underneath, will the new-look Escape be able to keep up as a new car within a rapidly improving class? | |
