  1. Of course all of this is just speculation. We won’t know anything till it’s released at a min. Though even at release ford hasn’t been great at giving information about the difference with ecvt system. Many articles claimed the 2.5hybrid in the maverick was the same one out of the current escape when it’s clearly not. Also the parts houses use the same part number for the mavericks ecvt as the current escape only thing that separates them is the models and year. On a side note we could look at history as well. Ford has consistently “refreshed” the 2.5l hydrid ecvt transmission every 4 years like clock work. The current system used in the escape was last refreshed in 2017, which means the 2022 mavericks system is the refreshed version. Speaking of supply chain issues. I have to dig but I remember reading one report that the in house system was developed due to supply chain issues with the current supplier not being able to keep up demand. I believe they share a supplier with Toyota. There was deal sparked between Toyota and Ford for licensing patents between them to create the 2.5l hybrid engine with the ecvt. Either way I hope they release it soon. I called the corporate number just for fun they said any day now.
  2. Excellent article, thank you. So it is a different system like I thought. Parts houses also confirm this as the 20% weight reduction specified in the article match up with replacement ecvts when comparing both models. Man I hope the 2023 Ford Escape comes with fords “in house” version of the ecvt. Article claims the new ecvt is capable of 98kw at 2300Nm that would be a huge increase for sure.
  3. Hi All, I went down the rabbit hole and I am wonder what you all make of this. From what I saw on google the current 2022 Ford Escape has a 88kw 129ftlb torque electric motor as part of the ecvt system. The current 2022 Ford mavericks motor is suppose to be the same motor and ecvt, but per fords tech spec sheet it has a 94kw 173ftlb torque electric motor as part of its ecvt system. The final gearing per the spec sheets seem to be the same so it seems to me that something must of changed with the mavericks hybrid system. Does this mean we could see a more powerful motor in the 2023 Ford escape hybrid and plugin? If so this could be huge with the 34% increase in torque.
