The 2020 Ford Escape SE 1.5L AWD represents the first year of the fourth-generation redesign in Canada. This model moved to a sleeker, car-like silhouette and introduced a specialized 3-cylinder turbocharged engine that prioritizes fuel efficiency for urban commuters.
The SE trim is powered by a unique 1.5L EcoBoost® Turbocharged 3-cylinder engine, producing 181 horsepower and 190 lb-ft of torque. This engine features cylinder deactivation technology, allowing it to run on just two cylinders during steady cruising to save fuel. It is paired with a smooth 8-speed automatic transmission and an Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system that can disconnect the rear axle when extra traction isn't needed. For the Canadian commute, it achieves a balanced fuel economy of approximately 9.1 L/100 km combined (10.2 city / 7.6 highway). It also offers a maximum towing capacity of 2,000 lbs (907 kg) when properly equipped.
For the 2020 redesign, Ford made its Co-Pilot360™ suite standard across all models, providing a high level of digital protection. This includes Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, a Blind Spot Information System (BLIS®) with Cross-Traffic Alert, and a Lane-Keeping System. To enhance visibility during night driving on dark Canadian roads, the SE also features Auto High-Beam Headlamps and a high-resolution Rearview Camera. The system further includes Driver Monitoring to detect signs of fatigue and Post-Collision Braking to help prevent secondary impacts.
The interior serves as a modern command centre, anchored by an 8.0-inch LCD touchscreen featuring the SYNC® 3 infotainment system. Connectivity is seamless via standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, allowing you to mirror your smartphone's navigation and media directly on the dash. The SE trim also includes FordPass Connect™ with a 4G LTE Wi-Fi Hotspot, SiriusXM® satellite radio, and a 4.2-inch digital instrument cluster for the driver. For the Canadian lifestyle, the cabin features multiple USB charging ports and standard Passive Keyless Entry with Push-Button Start.
The exterior is defined by a more aerodynamic profile with 17-inch Shadow Silver-painted aluminum wheels, LED signature lighting, and a rear spoiler. Inside, the cabin prioritizes year-round comfort with standard heated front seats, a 10-way power driver’s seat with lumbar support, and heated side mirrors. A hallmark of the 2020 redesign is the sliding second-row seats, which can move forward to maximize cargo space or backward to provide best-in-class legroom. Practicality remains a core strength, offering 1,062 L of cargo space behind the second row, which expands to a massive 1,852 L when the 60/40-split seats are folded flat.
Combining the punchy performance of the 1.5L EcoBoost engine with the elite intelligence of Ford Co-Pilot360™ and the premium versatility of its sliding second row, the 2020 Ford Escape SE AWD is the definitive choice for the modern Canadian driver. It delivers a refined, tech-forward sanctuary that maximizes interior space and fuel savings without compromising on winter capability.
