2022 Escape Exterior

The curvaceous 2022 Ford Escape still has its bold diamond-mesh grille, with chrome around the grille and upper windows on the SE upwards. The side profile features pronounced concave curves, which gives the SUV a wide-hipped appearance, reminiscent of the Mazda CX-5. Automatic halogen projector headlights come standard, along with 17-inch wheels. The upper trims get access to 18- or 19-inch alloys, LED headlights, and LED fog lights. The standard manual liftgate is upgraded to a power liftgate from the SEL upwards.

Exterior Colors

The new Escape makes do with a relatively unimpressive palette of body paints. The base S model gets access to the majority of the options, including all the standard no-cost colors. These include Agate Black, Iconic Silver, Carbonized Gray, Atlas Blue, and Iced Blue. The latter two are new for 2022, while Velocity Blue, Desert Gold, Bronze Fire, and Antimatter Blue have disappeared from the palette. Choose anything but the S, and you can opt for more colors, namely Flight Blue (another new color), Star White ($595), and Rapid Red ($395).
