A beloved compact SUV, the 2023 Ford Escape redesign brings new life to this silhouette. The new Ford Escape sees changes inside and out with its configurations, color options, and more. Here's a closer look at what's new and improved.
Meet the 2023 Ford Escape

The Ford Escape redesign still has several powertrain options, like the previous model. Choose from the 1.5-liter Ford EcoBoost engine, 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine, and two different hybrid engine options.
2023 Ford Escape Interior
Inside the 2023 Ford Escape, five seats and 34.4 cubic feet of cargo space make this SUV perfect for long commutes with friends and all your cargo. Use the 60/40 rear folding seats to make even more space for your things – up to 65.4 cubic feet – or slide the second-row seats back to give passengers almost 6 more inches of legroom.
The 2023 Ford Escape interior keeps up with your comfort, convenience, and safety needs while on the go and does it in style with several interior color and material options. The cabin features new screen options in addition to the standard 8-inch touch screen. Consider the available 12.3-inch driver information screen or the 13.2-inch infotainment screen.
