Escape is Ford’s second best selling vehicle behind the blockbuster F150. The all-new 2020 model adapts a sleeker shape and not only brings back the hybrid powertrain but adds a plug-in version that has an estimated all-electric range of 30 miles. Tom Voelk travels to Louisville, Kentucky to see if the latest version has what it takes to keep buyers from migrating to CR-V, RAV4, Rogue, Equinox and Cherokee.

 Tom attended a manufacturer’s event to cover the 2020 Escape. Ford provided transportation and lodging. Opinions remain fully independent.
