Ford Bronco Sport vs. Ford Escape
Performance
Choose the new Ford Bronco Sport for a trail-conquering 4x4 SUV equipped with five standard G.O.A.T. Modes®. All-wheel drive is available for the Ford Escape. The towing crown actually belongs to the Ford Escape, checking in at 3,500 pounds. A Bronco Sport can pull up to 2,700 pounds. Each Ford SUV gets great gas mileage on Ohio highways: 30 mpg for the Bronco Sport and 34 mpg for the Escape. But a new Ford Escape Hybrid yields 42 city miles per gallon, saving you on fuel costs.
The Ford Bronco Sport and Ford Escape are powered by the same EcoBoost® gas engines with the same outputs. A 1.5-liter EcoBoost® turbocharged three-cylinder engine delivers 180 horsepower, while the 2.0-liter EcoBoost® turbocharged four-cylinder engine churns out 250 horsepower. The new Ford Escape lineup offers four powertrains, giving you the power of choice. There are two electrified Escape options. A 192-horsepower hybrid is a fuel-conserving choice. Ohio families may prefer the exclusive PHEV option for the Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid, which generates 210 combined horsepower and offers 37 miles of all-electric range.
