2016 Ford Escape

Recent Arrival! 2016 Ford Escape SE Heres a breakdown of the 2016 Ford Escape SE its specs and what it does well. What It Is / Trim Level Overview â¢The SE trim is a mid-level version of the Escape. It gives more features than the base S but doesnt go as high as the Titanium. â¢In 2016 the Escape got updated tech, including the SYNC 3 infotainment system, which was a nice improvement. â¢SE could be configured with several engine options, FWD or AWD. Key Specs Here are the most relevant specs (can vary depending on engine, drivetrain, etc.): SpecTypical Value (depending on engine / drivetrain) Engines available2.5-L naturally aspirated I4 (~168 hp); 1.6-L EcoBoost turbo (~178 hp); optional 2.0-L EcoBoost (~240 hp) on SE/Titanium. DrivetrainFWD standard; AWD optional (on SE with certain engines) Transmission6-speed automatic SelectShift transmission Fuel economyVaries by setup: for example, the 1.6L EcoBoost FWD gets ~ 23 city / 32 highway mpg; AWD hurts that somewhat. The 2.5L non-turbo FWD is lower (~ 22/31 mpg) Towing capacityWith the 2.0-L EcoBoost and tow package, up to ~ 3,500 lbs. Size / SpaceSeats 5; decent cargo space for its class. Interior is comfortable; exterior visibility has some occlusion due to large A-pillars. What Its Good At Here are things people tend to like about the 2016 Escape SE: â¢Turbo engines (especially the 1.6 and 2.0 EcoBoosts) give good performance vs the non-turbo base engine. â¢Modern tech (for its time) SYNC 3 was a step up, nicer interface than the older systems. â¢Comfortable ride, decent handling for a crossover. Many owners say SE hits a nice balance between comfort and capability. â¢Reasonable fuel economy (especially with the smaller EcoBoost) for a small/compact SUV, particularly on highway use. â¢Decent feature set: options like AWD, tow package, some premium touches in SE (chrome packages, heated seats etc in higher sub-versions) make it more versatile. Bottom Line If youre okay with a used SUV in this age range, the 2016 Escape SE can offer good value: decent performance (especially with a turbo engine), modern tech, and useful capability.
