The 2014 Ford Escape for buyers
No 2014 Ford Escape is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. The 2014 Ford Escape for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
Before you sign for the Escape
There are 16 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA has 2,089 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine, power train and unknown or other. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.
What the figures tell you
It uses the 1.6L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
The combined figure, 9.2 L/100 km, means roughly 28 litres for 300 km. A 300 km weekend costs about $42.78 in energy at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$2,600 a year for 15,000 miles.
When the Escape makes sense
It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
How big it is
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
Rent it for a week first
Try the Escape on your commute, then decide. A week with the Escape answers more than any brochure. If the Escape is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge.
Narrowing it down
Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.
What it costs to run
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $14.26 in fuel.
