This 2018 Ford Escape SEL is a nicely loaded compact SUV that blends comfort, useful tech, and strong utility. It’s a great fit if you want something easy to drive and park, but still roomy enough for family, pets, and road‑trip gear.
Under the hood, the SEL comes with a 1.5L EcoBoost turbo 4‑cylinder putting out 179 horsepower and 177 lb‑ft of torque, paired with a 6‑speed automatic transmission. Most SELs are equipped with Intelligent 4WD, giving you extra confidence in rain and snow while still driving like a car on dry pavement. Fuel economy is rated at about 20 mpg city and 27 mpg highway for the SEL 4WD, which works out to roughly 11.8 L/100 km in the city and 8.7 L/100 km on the highway (about 10.7 L/100 km combined).
Inside, the SEL trim steps things up from the lower models. You get leather‑trimmed seats with a power driver’s seat, heated front seats on many Canadian units, dual‑zone automatic climate control, and a leather‑wrapped steering wheel, giving the cabin a more premium feel. Ford’s SYNC 3 touchscreen system with Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, USB, and satellite radio makes it easy to run navigation from your phone, stream music, and handle calls hands‑free, while the standard power liftgate adds a big dose of everyday convenience.
Practicality is a strong point for the Escape. There’s seating for five, and behind the rear seats you get about 34.0 cu.ft. of cargo space, opening up to 68.0 cu.ft. with the rear seat folded—plenty for luggage, camping gear, or big shopping trips. At 178.1 inches long, about 72.4 inches wide (81.8 with mirrors), and 66.3 inches tall on a 105.9‑inch wheelbase, it feels stable on the highway but is still easy to maneuver and park, with a tight 38.8‑foot turning circle and around 7.8–7.9 inches of ground clearance for winter and rougher driveways.
