2021 Ford Escape

 The handsome Ford Escape for 2021 remains one of the most practical and efficient family hauling compact SUV's on the road today, thanks in part to its car-like handling, stylish sporty exterior and the Escape's reputation of “First's”. 

The Escape was first to bring in the Hybrid and now it is the only one in its class to offer a plug-in electric model.  This PHEW Escape will travel 37 miles just on voltage and then average about 41 mpg after that.  Think about that for a second....most family haulers don't even reach that in a day's travel of running errands or shopping and if they do the gas engine takes over in one smooth operation.  This new electric model is proudly on display for your up close and personal attention with the friendly folks at Hixson Fordof Leesville located at 11981 Lake Charles Highway in Leesville, Louisiana or by calling the dealership at 337.239.3434 and so ready to meet your expectations. 

While there, you have other Ford Escapes to check out with the new refreshed design. You and yours will notice quickly that the grille looks much like it's cousin Mustang with a lowered front that is set in an aggressive stance and stunning cat-like headlamps.  This 2021 Escape just refuses to go anywhere unnoticed.  Also, it is longer, wider and even lighter and that is thanks to high-strength lightweight steel.  This increased size has allowed more space for its occupants and cargo room. 

The other good news is the new Ford Escape comes with a choice of engines as the base model now has a turbocharged 1.5-liter inline three cylinder that delivers 180 feisty ponies and more than enough grunt to enter expressways or zip around town.  A more popular powerful turbo four is also available that punches out 250 lively horses and is quick off the line and mated with an 8-speed automatic with paddle shifters and really is a lot of fun to drive.  The other gas sipping hybrid returns with its 2.5-liter four coupled with a pair of electric motors that deliver outstanding gas mileage.  Then the new before mentioned plug-in model completes the stable of efficient powertrains for the Ford Escape this year. 

Moving inside, the theme of excellence continues with comfy seats and innovative and versatile amenities with high quality and tech superior systems for your entertainment and communication desires.  The Escape's 8-inch user friendly touchscreen is compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.  It also comes standard with a suite of safety features that include the very important automatic emergency braking setup. 

Everything just comes together for a fun driving experience while behind the wheel of the new Ford Escape.  No better time than now to check one out.
