Super TestCar reviews - Ford - Escape - XLT 5-dr wagonFord modelsResearch Ford Stand Out Features26 Jun 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON HERE at last before the 4WD boom is over, the Escape (and its Mazda Tribute clone) have turned up with a CR-V appearance and extremely good engine performance. Though not the most refined powerplant on offer, the 3.0-litre engine has spirit and strength on its side - and a V6 tag that'll win buyers in an instant. The Blue Oval badge helps here, too, though once out of the showroom the driver will find solid on-road manners and, something of a rarity in this class, good off-road ability. Did you know?Escape ground clearance is 200mm, the approach angle 28.5 degrees and the departure angle 22 degreesAll car reviewsAlfa Romeo Abarth Alpine Alpina Audi Aston Martin BMW Bentley Chevrolet Chery Citroen Chrysler Dodge Cupra Ferrari DS Ford Fiat FPV Foton GWM Great Wall Holden Haval HSV Honda Hyundai Hummer Isuzu Infiniti Jeep Jaguar Lamborghini Kia LDV Land Rover Lotus Lexus Maserati Mahindra McLaren Mazda Mercedes-Benz Mercedes-AMG Mini MG Nissan Mitsubishi Peugeot Opel Proton Porsche Renault Ram Rover Rolls-Royce Skoda Saab SsangYong Smart Suzuki Subaru Toyota Tesla Volvo Volkswagen |
