Ah yes, the vehicle that they debuted in March 2024 could possibly go on sale before a vehicle that hasn't even debuted yet...... Hilarious and shocking/unexpected!!!!!
The rear seat in the escape can slide back 6” making it have much more legroom. My kids complained when we looked at buying the BS and maverick because they couldn’t fit comfortably and the shortest kid is only 5’5”. I’m 6”2” and have the drivers seat as far back as it will go. The ford escape has almost 41” of rear seat legroom. The BS has 37” and the maverick has 36-37”. That’s a pretty big difference.
The difference between the Maverick/Bronco Sport vs the Escape is about 3-4 inches, but for some reason the hybrid Escape loses about 1.5 inch over the gas models.
In the grand scheme of thing, how much of an impact is it going to be? I had my 78 year old parents and In laws in the back of the Bronco Sport I have and they didn't complain about it. I normally keep my seat all the way back since I'm tall.
The rear leg room of the previous gen Escape is roughly equitant to what the Maverick and Bronco Sport have
Maybe because Ford was fined $365 Million for doing that? FFS
Ford to pay $365 million in US import tariff evasion case
Ford has built unibody products for years at OHP-they built the Nissan based minivans and the Escape/Mariner years back
