Introduction

Ford Escape - 2008 Review: Compact crossovers are a little like hamburgers. Using the same basic ingredients, different manufacturers manage to make their burgers unique. The original 2000 Escape lead the field with a V-6 engine, car-like ride and huge cargo space. But the competition caught up and passed the Escape, making Ford's updates for 2008 little more than fresh pickles and an extra helping of special sauce on the same stale patty and bun. These days the Escape is eclipsed almost universally by its competitors in terms of style, performance, quality and capability, offering a more satisfying meal for your dollar than this warmed-over Ford.

contemporary appearance, highly functional design and affordable price tag rightly indicate this petite newcomer is aimed directly at younger, active-lifestyle buyers. The fact that the Escape does a great job of getting one from point A to point B only helps to broaden that native appeal.
