I bought a 2020 Escape Titanium Hybrid at end of March. I kept our 2013 C-Max. I'm going to bet that the C-Max became the prototype for the Escape.
I've driven over 300 miles, mostly local. Averaging 45 mpg. Filled up Escape ($1.69 a gallon - can you believe that). It says I have a 630 miles to empty.
I really like the way it drives. Seats are comfortable. I like having a spare tire. Like the keypad on the door. Car came with privacy screen over the back storage area. Like the various displays, including the heads-up. Sports mode is cool. When accelerating quickly, it shifts gears (I think it is a simulated shift, not a real shift - but still cool.) Haven't tried yet the lane keeping and drivering assist on the interstate. Should come in handy on long drives.
