Underneath the hood of this model rests a 2.5L Atkinson-Cycle 4-cylinder hybrid engine that’s capable of generating a maximum of 163 horsepower1 and 155 lb.-ft. of torque1. If you’d like some extra verve for your Dothan travels, spring for the optional 2.0L 4-cylinder EcoBoost® powertrain that’ll provide you with 250 horsepower1 and 280 lb.-ft. of torque1.

Moreover, the AWD system will provide you with plenty of traction and handling for your time on the road.
Interior
The 2026 Ford Escape Platinum boasts enough seats to fit up to five passengers when you decide to travel to Dothan Area Botanical Gardens. There’s also the standard 10-way power driver seat that’ll keep you relaxed while you're out and about. Further heightening the cabin are the optional ActiveX® trimmed chairs with quilting design and mini-perforation. If you enjoy listening to your favorite tunes while behind the wheel, then you’ll love the available 10-speaker sound system. As the weather changes, you can rely on the dual-zone electronic automatic temperature control to keep you in your preferred climate no matter the time of year. Additionally, the optional Panoramic Vista Roof® with Power Shade will give you easy access to natural lighting when you’re driving through the streets of your city.
Exterior
We’d be remiss to not mention the exterior design of this model, as it comes with multiple optional hues like Carbonized Gray Metallic, Star White Metallic, Vapor Blue Metallic, and Rapid Red. The Piano Black grille with a chrome strip will draw the attention of any passersby when you’re making your way down Route 12. Do you have gear that won’t fit in the cabin or trunk? If so, utilize the available black roof-rail crossbars to secure it. The body-color rear spoiler will add a more sporty look to this model, and the heated sideview mirrors will prevent condensation from obstructing your view.
