Rent a Ford Escape

The Ford Escape Active is a compact SUV that balances city maneuverability with practical space. It measures approximately 180 inches in length, 74 inches in width (without mirrors), and 66 inches in height. Its five-door SUV body style allows easy access through wide-opening doors, and the elevated seating position provides good road visibility. Large windows and a high roofline improve sightlines for both driver and passengers. The vehicle features practical lighting with halogen headlights and taillights, and its step-in height makes entry and exit straightforward, ideal for rental customers who value convenience and functionality.

The Ford Escape Active offers a practical and straightforward cabin. The driver’s seat is six-way manual, while the passenger's seat is four-way manual, allowing you to customize your seat to a comfortable position. Seating is arranged for five people, with a sliding second-row bench (60/40 split) to allow flexible legroom or load space. Dual-zone automatic climate control keeps front and rear passengers comfortable.

The Ford Escape Active provides a well-designed cargo area. With all seats upright, the trunk offers approximately 1,061L of space, expanding to 1,851L when the rear seats are folded – plenty of space for luggage, pushchairs or other bulky items. The second-row seats can slide forward by about six inches, allowing you to balance passenger legroom and cargo space. There is a multi-level cargo floor that can be adjusted for a flat load surface, plus underfloor storage for smaller items.

Under the hood, the Escape Active comes with a 1.5 L EcoBoost engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. It delivers smooth, confident acceleration. 0-60 mph is around 7.7 seconds. The suspension is tuned for comfort, with independent rear multi-link suspension aiding stability in corners. Front-wheel drive is standard, with all-wheel drive available for improved traction in wet or uneven conditions.

The Escape Active includes an 8-inch SYNC 4 touchscreen and comes with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It supports SiriusXM 360L streaming radio. Connectivity is enhanced by FordPass Connect, providing a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot inside the vehicle. The standard sound system uses six speakers, offering reliable audio without unnecessary complexity.
