Super TestCar reviews - Ford - Escape - XLT 5-dr wagonFord modelsResearch Ford Engine26 Jun 2001 By BRUCE NEWTON ESCAPE is powered by an all-alloy 3.0-litre quad-cam 24-valve Duratec V6 engine that develops 150kW at 5900rpm and 266Nm at 4700rpm. Mounted transversely, the engine also has compact dimensions to enable installation within the body's short front overhang. Major features include a specially developed tumble-port induction system and redesigned intake manifold, which together maximise intake air volume. Ford claims the result is strong low-speed torque and optimal performance across the rev range. Official fuel economy figures point to 13.0L/100km on the city cycle and 8.0L/100km on the highway. The fuel tank holds 62 litres.
