Ford Escape Horsepower by Year
The Ford Escape’s catalog horsepower ranges from 127 to 250 hp across the listed model years. These figures show the engine’s rated horsepower, not a guarantee of the power delivered in every driving condition.
The range covers catalog years 2001-2022, so the horsepower figure varies by year and engine; a single number does not describe every Escape. Check the matching year and engine in the catalog table rather than treating the range as one vehicle’s rating.
If you need a horsepower figure that is not listed for your specific Escape, confirm it in the owner’s manual or with vehicle documentation.
