Reviewed: 2006 Ford Escape

4dr SUV 133-horsepower 2.3L I4 Hybrid CVT AWD

Why the 2006 Ford Escape?

Fuel economy

This is a hybrid, comparative to other SUVs, this has the highest fuel economy on the market. Currently, I average 30+ mpg, and that is with AWD.

Cargo capacity

This has SUV cargo capacity, which I like.

Reliability & durability

0

Handling

Steering and cornering are tight for an SUV.

Why Not the 2006 Ford Escape?

Audio & nav systems

The Ford NAV system is really outdated. I have a 2006, and the newer vehicles (2008 and newer) are upgraded to a better system, but mine is the dregs.

Quietness

The hybrid system can be noisy at high rpms.

Price or payments

As a hybrid, expect to pay a premium price.
