2025 Ford Escape Engine Options


If you’re shopping for your next compact SUV, the
2025 Ford Escape is a comfortable, and capable option. It packs a lot of convenience into its frame, and oozes style on the road. Better yet, it’s a versatile SUV, offering no fewer than four different engine options depending on what you intend to use it for, how fuel efficient you want it to be, and just how much power you want under the hood. Read on with the experts here at Downtown Ford as we look closer at what those different options have to offer.

1.5L EcoBoost I-4

The standard engine in the 2025 Escape is the 1.5L EcoBoost. It’s a lightweight powerplant with auto start-stop technology to help with overall fuel efficiency and in reducing emissions. This is a great engine option for the daily commuter, as the engine will rest every time you come to a red light, or find yourself stuck in traffic. It’s still got a lot of power, too, with 18- horsepower, and 2,000 lbs of towing capability.

2.0L EcoBoost I-4

The most potent engine option for the 2025 Ford Escape is the 2.0L EcoBoost. This absolute powerhouse can generate 250 horsepower and 280 lb.-ft. of torque, giving you incredible acceleration and up to 3,500 lbs of towing capacity – which is quite impressive for a compact SUV. If you want a smaller SUV that punches well above its weight-class, the 2.0L EcoBoost might be for you.

2.5L iVCT I-4 Hybrid

If you love to go the distance in your SUV, the 2025 Escape’s 2.5L iVCT hybrid engine might be the option for you. It uses a combination of battery power and a gas engine to extend overall fuel economy, and thanks to regenerative braking technology, it keeps the battery topped up. This engine can get near 1,000km on a single tank of gas, and still generates 192 total system horsepower along the way.

2.5L iVCT I-4 PHEV

Even more powerful than the iVCT Hybrid, the 2025 Ford Escape’s 2.5L iVCT PHEV option can generate 210 total system horsepower. Better yet, in addition to incredible hybrid fuel efficiency, you can also drive the PHEV option fully electric for up to 60 kilometers off the battery, then plug it in to recharge overnight! For the daily commuter, 60 km might cover the trip to work and back, plus an evening of errands, without ever touching a drop of fuel. This might be the perfect choice for someone who isn’t quite ready to leave their gas tank behind for longer road trips, but is interested in giving urban EV driving a try.
