Few changes have been made to the Escape lineup for 2011, pending a complete redesign scheduled for 2012.

The 2011 Ford Escape is one of the most affordable and economical small SUVs, and its car-like ride and handling, along with good maneuverability, make it a solid choice for urban drivers. The Escape is a Top Safety Pick award winner from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety and has received a 5-star government rating in its crash testing.
At the same time, the Hybrid model is one of the lowest-priced hybrids and offers a practical way to "go green." Last year's Escape Hybrid offered a fuel efficiency rating of 34 mpg city and 31 mpg highway.
