Fuel Economy and Real-World MPGĪccording to the EPA, the turbocharged 1.5-liter three-cylinder model with front-wheel drive offers the highest fuel economy estimates among non-hybrid Escape models. During our highway fuel economy testing, we managed 25 miles of highway driving before the battery ran out of juice and the Escape switched to gasoline power.
