Which American Crossover Wins? Ford Escape vs Chevy Equinox

The competition is heating up in the SUV world, and two popular crossovers are going head-to-head in 2024: the Ford Escape and the Chevrolet Equinox. Which crossover is better suited to your needs? Read on for a quick comparison and see which comes out on top.

Engines and Fuel Economy

The Ford Escape gives buyers two turbocharged choices: a fuel-friendly 1.5L three-cylinder and a stronger 2.0L four-cylinder. Meanwhile, the Chevy Equinox comes with a single 1.5L turbo-four, providing decent fuel economy but lower horsepower than Escape’s larger engine. Drivers seeking more performance options may find the Escape’s two-engine choice more appealing.

Interior & Technology

Equinox and Escape bring comfort and technology, but Escape stands out with its SYNC® 4 and bigger screen. Chevy Equinox’s infotainment is easy to use, though its screen is smaller and lacks a few of Escape’s top features. When it comes to comfort and tech, the Ford Escape is the one to beat.

Cargo Space and Flexibility

For families or anyone needing extra cargo space, both crossovers provide solid versatility. Escape does have an edge with a bit more cargo room, making it a good choice for road trips and daily drives. The Equinox’s interior remains roomy, but if maximizing space is a priority, the Escape could be a better fit.
