Overview & Reviews
Additional standard equipment makes the 2002 Ford Escape an even better value. XLS models get a dual-media cassette/CD stereo, while XLT adds a V6 engine, privacy glass, power driver seat and an in-dash six-CD changer. New Sport packages also debut. The XLS Sport includes 15-inch alloy wheels with larger tires, side-step bars, Sport-embroidered floor mats and dark tinted privacy glass. The XLT Sport, new for 2002, provides, in addition to XLS Sport equipment, a special No Boundaries roof rack system and unique 16-inch alloy wheels with meatier rubber. Four new colors are also available.
- Strong V6 engine, comfortable cabin, plenty of cargo space, car-like road manners.
- Lacks the off-road capability of a truck-based SUV, barely adequate base engine, shoddy build quality, unimpressive interior materials.

Best Entry-Level SUV On The Market - 2002 Ford Escape
By JohnnyH - September 14 - 6:24 pmI have owned my Escape for over two years and never had a problem. The engine is very responsive and doesnt do a bad job of pulling 2 Jet-Skis. The Escape is surprisingly sure footed in winter conditions for its size. The Mach sound system is great. I have been very happy with the car.

Love my Escape - 2002 Ford Escape
By Katlvrkas - April 11 - 3:31 pmI bought my Escape brand new and love it! I have had 2 recalls, but they were fixed with no problem. The only other problem Ive had is that the power windows squeal in cold weather. Dealer has always lubed and once had to replace. Overall, Ive been extremely satisfied with the Escape.

Hard to find manual transmission SUV - 2002 Ford Escape
By Midwesterner - March 31 - 10:00 amWe looked long and hard for an SUV with a manual transmission. The 2002 Escape has met our expectations and then some. Easy and fun to drive.

much better than expected - 2002 Ford Escape
By Tekawiz - March 13 - 2:00 amThe car has performed better than expected in all areas, especially in fuel efficiency. I get about 26 mpg. Engine performs well and is smooth for 4 cylinder. I can go over 400 miles on a full tank of gas. Plenty of power to get up exteneded hill climbs and performes well on winding roads. Turning radius is excellent, an unexpected surprise.
