Used 2023 Ford Escape Platinum | w/ Equipment Group Package

2023 Ford Escape Platinum 2.0L EcoBoost® AWD

The Upscale Urban Athlete: 250 HP of Twin-Scroll Turbo Muscle Meets Elite Equipment Group Tech, Intelligent All-Wheel Drive, and High-Tier Canadian Winter Refinement

Decoding the Build: The Reimagined Premium Top-Tier SUV Experience

The 2023 model year represents a massive, highly celebrated evolution for the fourth-generation Ford Escape, introducing a sweeping mid-cycle redesign that fundamentally shifts its styling paradigm. Built on Ford's advanced global C-platform featuring a wider track profile, tighter structural body seams, and enhanced multi-layer acoustic insulation, this generation is celebrated across Canada for its exceptionally quiet passenger cell and nimble, car-like handling. Moving completely away from the round styling of the past, the 2023 iteration introduces an aggressive, wide-mouthed monochromatic exterior layout that mimics premium European utility crossovers.

In Canada’s competitive pre-owned marketplace, configuring the flagship Platinum trim with standard All-Wheel Drive (AWD) stands as the definitive smart-money blueprint for luxury-minded buyers. Sitting firmly at the absolute peak of the non-ST model line, the Platinum completely eliminates baseline compromises. Natively paired with the premium Equipment Group 601A package, this vehicle replaces standard commuter items with a massive digital cockpit framework, active 360-degree camera radar nets, and upscale ActiveX executive furniture. Driven by a high-output 4-cylinder engine structure rather than a basic 3-cylinder unit, this top-tier utility vehicle serves as a sophisticated, climate-insulated multi-tool custom-engineered to conquer daily gridlock and brutal provincial winter blizzards alike.

Experience Planted Authority: 250 HP of High-Output Twin-Scroll Turbo Muscle

Ignite your cross-province highway overtaking maneuvers, mountain chalet weekend retreats, and deep snow intersection launches with the highly potent 250 hp 2.0L Twin-Scroll EcoBoost® DOHC 16-Valve 4-Cylinder Engine, the high-performance mechanical heartbeat driving this 2023 Ford Escape Platinum. Generating a muscular, flat 280 lb-ft of torque starting at just 3,000 rpm, this twin-scroll turbocharged powerplant easily out-accelerates and out-torques traditional naturally aspirated commuter engines, delivering immediate throttle response with virtually zero turbo lag. Because it manages thermal dynamics via an advanced integrated engine oil cooling matrix, it warms up exceptionally fast during deep sub-zero provincial freezes, ensuring prompt cabin heater core warming cycles and total mechanical starting reliability.

What places this premium athlete at the absolute peak of severe-weather confidence is its standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) with Disconnect. Rather than waiting for the tires to actively spin out on patchy black ice before clunking into action, this proactive 4x4 matrix monitors steering wheel angles, ambient outside temperature, and pedal pressure hundreds of times per second. It seamlessly routes power to the rear wheels before traction loss occurs. On dry summer highways, the system completely uncouples power to the rear axle to eliminate mechanical drag and maximize fuel preservation.

Underpinned by a sophisticated fully independent front MacPherson strut and an independent multi-link rear suspension layout, the Escape tracks through highway crosswinds with remarkable, planted stability. It achieves a highly practical Canadian fuel consumption rating of 10.2 L/100 km city and 7.6 L/100 km highway (9.1 L/100 km combined), using regular unleaded fuel while maintaining a massive, class-leading 1,588 kg (3,500 lbs) maximum conventional towing capacity when optioned with the factory Class II Trailer Tow Package.

Your Intelligent Guardian: Flagship Ford Co-Pilot360™ Active Assist 2.0 Radar

Drive with the unwavering peace of mind that comes from an ultra-high-strength steel structural safety cage, standard AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ (RSC®), Torque Vectoring Control, and a comprehensive 7-airbag defensive capsule—standardizing dual-stage front arrays, seat-mounted side impact shields, full-length Safety Canopy curtains, and a dedicated driver's knee bolster to earn top-tier global crash safety honors. The 2023 Platinum acts as your highly vigilant co-pilot, standardizing the comprehensive Ford Co-Pilot360™ Active Assist 2.0 suite out of the factory box to deploy:

• Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB), conjoined with Intersection Assist and Pedestrian/Cyclist Detection to actively prevent front-end impacts.

Monochromatic Athletic Profile and Expansive Sliding Cargo Utility

Make an unforgettable statement on the street with the Escape's unmistakably modern profile—boldly showing off a unique Platinum-specific piano black front mesh grille with chrome accents, a sporty integrated rear roof spoiler, body-colour door handles, silver roof rack side rails, deep-tinted rear privacy glass, and a striking coast-to-coast front LED light bar signature that stretches across the hood line to create an unmistakable nighttime profile. The modern exterior aesthetic is anchored by auto-on high-efficiency LED projector headlights conjoined with LED daytime running lights, integrated LED fog lamps, and LED taillights, casting a brilliant white beam that dramatically increases night-time visibility along pitch-black rural highways. The upscale stance sits beautifully on commanding, standard 19-inch machined-face aluminum wheels with dark tarnished-painted pockets wrapped in thick all-season tires. Crucial for day-to-day Canadian utility, the exterior includes heated power-adjustable side-view mirrors with integrated security approach lamps to melt away morning frost instantly.

Walk around to the rear to find a wide-opening tailgate. Pop the power latch to reveal an incredibly flexible loading platform that thoroughly out-muscles traditional compact crossovers.

• It yields a highly practical 949 litres of trunk cargo space behind the second row alone to handle your daily errands, groceries, and travel luggage blocks with absolute ease.
