First Glance at the 2020 Ford Escape and Nissan Rogue

If you need a little variety, the Escape offers five trims to choose from, including the S, SE, SE Sport Hybrid, SEL, and Titanium. The Rogue only offers three-the S, SV, and SL. The models are similar in most aspects when it comes to exterior and interior dimensions. However, the Escape is slightly wider, yet shorter than the Rogue, which can come in handy when maneuvering through tight spaces in your garage or parallel parking.

Power is Important: Escape vs. Rogue

The Rogue offers fewer engine options, with a 2.5L DOHC 16-valve 4-cylinder engine. With the Escape, you'll have a choice of hybrid or plug-in hybrid with the 2.5L iVCT Atkinson-cycle hybrid engine. For gas engines, a 1.5L EcoBoost and 2.0L EcoBoost with auto start-up technology are at your disposal. Need to pull a load? The Escape also takes first in towing capacity, with 2,000 lbs in maximum towing. In terms of variety and velocity, the 2020 Ford Escape takes the cake!

Comparing Technology in the 2020 Ford Escape and Nissan Rogue

Both the Escape and Rogue have driver-friendly technology. The Rogue's key features include rear automatic braking, a divide-n-hide® cargo system, an intelligent around view® monitor, and an easy-fill tire alert. Impressive features to highlight for the Escape include pre-collision assist with automatic emergency braking, BLIS® with cross-traffic alert, active park assist, steering assist, a lane-keeping system, drive modes that adapt to different road surfaces, and a head-up display on the windshield in front of the driver - helping keep your eyes on the road and your loved ones safe.

Saving Money: Escape vs. Rogue

Going with the Escape means you'll be filling up your tank less often. The hybrid Ford Escape offers an excellent 44/37 city/highway MPG, while the Rogue maxes out at 26/33 city/highway MPG. Additionally, the MSRP for the Escape starts off lower than the Rogue, with a range of $24,885 to $36,835. With fewer elements to choose from, the Rogue MSRP ranges from $25,300 to $33,040. So, what does all this mean? If you want a vehicle with great value, the 2020 Ford Escape is the SUV for you.
