I hope this review is helpful to someone looking for a really good driving experience. In My opinion Adaptive Cruse Control takes about 70% out of the pain of driving on a long trip especially on the Interstate. It is all the thoughtful little things that makes Escape add up to a really excellent driving experience SUV. Ford really paid close action to all the ergonomics. I give it a 9.5 out of 10 for meeting my expectations. Some people may find the engine to be a little loud, but it has a throaty sound move like a tough V6 and I love it. You won't notice it if you are a radio listener. The escape delivered on all items except it could be quieter when it comes to road noise. My criteria was Adaptive Cruse Control, quit ride, good acceleration, braking, styling, … power lift gate, heated seats, good handling and front power seat with presets. Ford has shown and eye for detail to the little things that add up to a great driving experience. I was about to buy a Honda CR-V and then drove the Escape.

Selecting Sport mode gives it more heft and makes it easier to figure out where the front wheels are pointed. As for the steering, it's very light and low-effort in the default drive mode. There's not much grip from the tires either. It rolls a lot and has a ponderous feel as you go around turns. The Escape's handling is disappointing too. It all feels terribly unrefined, and something that Ford should have fixed before putting the Escape on sale. Even the engine stop-start system bucks the Escape when it restarts the engine as you take your foot off the brake. Downshifts are similar, and you'll feel multiple small shocks as you decelerate. Unfortunately, the eight-speed automatic transmission shifts slowly and can be jerky with its upshifts.
