Notes from the dealer
This SUV is ideal for drivers who value modern luxury and refined details in their everyday commute or family outings. The Escape SELâs memory seating, power driver seat, and dual-zone automatic temperature control cater to those seeking comfort in unpredictable climates, especially for refined lifestyles in the Sw Mt Vernon, IA area. Executive touches like heated front seats and a heated steering wheel ensure warmth during cold mornings, while the hands-free power liftgate makes errands and travel effortlessly convenient. Its one-owner legacy and non-smoker background promise a feature-rich value, welcoming buyers who appreciate both sophistication and peace of mind.
Under the hood, the EcoBoost 2.0L turbocharged engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission delivers smooth, effortless acceleration with minimal noise or harshness. The all-wheel-drive system adds composure, especially on rain-slicked roads or during spirited highway merges. Noise, vibration, and harshness are expertly minimized, ensuring that even at highway speeds, the cabin remains hushedâ"a testament to the Escapeâs engineering focus on acoustic refinement. The result is a drive that feels both agile and serene, reflecting a commitment to premium motoring.
Safety in the Escape SEL is seamlessly integrated to elevate the feeling of security without intruding on the driving experience. Advanced systems like Blind Spot Monitoring, Lane Keep Assist, and Adaptive Cruise Control work quietly in the background, providing subtle corrections and alerts when needed. The Ford Co-Pilot360 Assist suite, including a rear camera, reverse sensing, and auto high-beam headlights, ensures that navigating busy streets or dimly lit roads feels confident and composed. These active safety features contribute to a sophisticated, stress-free environment, reinforcing the Escapeâs reputation for protecting its occupants with invisible precision.
Premium features in this model enhance every aspect of daily life. The 12-speaker audio system envelops the cabin in rich sound, while navigation keeps trips efficient and distraction-free. Heated ActiveX front sport contour bucket seats and a heated steering wheel add a tactile sense of luxury, matched by memory settings that recall your perfect driving position on every journey. The power liftgate streamlines loading, and SYNC 3 with 911 Assist ensures connectivity and emergency support. Automatic temperature control and ambient lighting further refine the Escape's welcoming, high-end atmosphere.
In the premium compact SUV segment, the Escape SEL stands out for its tactile quality and acoustic serenity. Compared to the Honda CR-V EX-L and Toyota RAV4 XLE Premium, it offers a quieter cabin and a more intuitive suite of luxury appointments.
What premium materials are used in the interior? The cabin features Ebony ActiveX seating surfaces, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and soft-touch points throughout. How quiet is the cabin? Engineered insulation and refined powertrain tuning create a hushed environment, minimizing outside noise and road harshness.

Great performance highway/city/winters
by Ed S on 8/25/2026 4:16:53 PM
Got the '21 SEL Hybrid used, and it's felt like a steal. I was moving from the south to the northern midwest, and needed a car that could hold family of 4+gear, had good mileage, good handling and driving all seasons, and really preferred some creature comforts. 3 months after purchase, I had to take it on the big test of 3k+ mile trip into the Dakotas, ending in a winter storm the last 250 miles. It handled everything wonderfully, and in comfort. MPG dropped to the low-mid 30's when I was doing pure highway, jumped up to low 40's with combo city/highway. No idea what people are complaining about on engine straining/noise, this thing has handled everything from driving 80 along the highways to climbing a steep grade hill during a blizzard. No issues at all, the AWD is a great need for my winters, and it's more modern features work well. My assumption is those complaining of engine noise/issues have had poor maintenance. I've kept up with mine very diligently, and have nice tires in place to help with winters here. The interesting positive is my year/model came with a map nav and sync as standard. So it has mapping/updating/etc all built in. But I never use it as I still prefer my phone Android Auto setup. Biggest complaint is it feels like there's just not quite enough space in the back, even when dropping the seats. You can fit luggage/hardware/gear in there, but you'll need to be creative. I ended up getting the roof rack as a fall-back for bigger things. - 5.0

Bought my car brand new February 2023. It’s a 2022 model sports package. Love the way it handles. rarely uses gas as I do mostly in town errands. Smaller than my previous Non plug-in Ford Escape, but actually like it that way. Backseat does fold down and plenty of rear cargo room.
