The overview
The Escape Hybrid gets an impressive 34 mpg overall in our tests, and doesn't suffer from the persistent--and annoying--engine vibration that we experienced with models equipped with the standard 1.5-liter three-cylinder. It is available in both front and all-wheel drive configurations. There's also a front-wheel-drive only plug-in hybrid model with a 37-mile electric range available. The Escape's ride has an underlying firmness but is steady and composed. Handling is nimble and secure, but the brake pedal is oversensitive. Controls, including the rotary gear selector, are easy to use. The firm front seats are flat and don't provide much support, but the rear seat is quite roomy when set to the rearmost position. All Escape Hybrids come standard with FCW, AEB with pedestrian detection, BSW, and RCTW. 2026 is the last production year for the Escape Hybrid.

Behind the data
Latest source update: September 11, 2026
Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.
Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
