The 2021 Ford Escape is a small SUV that is Ford’s answer to Honda’s CR-V and the Toyota RAV4. You can expect a 106.7-inch wheelbase, passenger volume of 104 cubic feet, and a maximum cargo capacity of 65.4 cubic feet.
Redesigned in 2020, the Escape is a versatile crossover that is more powerful and roomy than before. You’ll also find a range of new engines that can make this a good budget option if you’re shopping around for an SUV now.
The number of seats, the space for passengers, and exactly how much you can haul all should be important considerations. That’s why we’ve put together this guide to the 2021 Ford Escape’s dimensions.

That’s a lot of technical information to absorb all at once! Don’t worry, we’ve broken everything down for you. Here’s what you need to know:
  • Wheelbase: the distance between the centers of the front and rear axles of a vehicle
  • Total length: how long the car is when measured from the front to rear end
  • Track width: distance between the centerline of two wheels on the same axle (so rear track width would be the distance between the two rear wheels)
  • Ground clearance: the distance between the lowest part of the vehicle body or chassis and the road

2021 Ford Escape interior dimensions

Knowing the outside is all well and good, but the interior is where you’ll actually be sitting. The Escape has five seats for passengers and the following dimensions: 
Interior dimensions
Total passenger volume
104 cubic feet
Front seat headroom
40 inches
Front seat legroom
42.4 inches
Front seat shoulder room
57.6 inches
Front seat hip room

Second-row headroom
39.3 inches
Second-row legroom
40.7 inches
Second-row shoulder room
56 inches
Second-row hip room
53.3 inches
There are also large cubbies in the front, sizable door pockets, and plenty of cupholders. These measurements show that you can expect a little more roominess with the Escape than in something like the
Honda CR-V
, one of the best sellers in this class. 

2021 Ford Escape trunk space dimensions

Cargo space is very important for most SUV owners. After all, making travel easier is probably one of the reasons you’re looking at one. 
Because the Escape is a two-row SUV with five seats, you should pay attention to these measurements:
  • Cargo volume behind second row: 33.5 cubic feet
  • Maximum cargo volume behind front row: 65.4 cubic feet
At best, the Escape’s cargo area is considered fairly average. With a low floor and high seatbacks, you will be able to enjoy a lot of vertical storage space without sacrificing rearview mirror visibility.
Competitors like the CR-V definitely have stronger space measurements (i.e., 39.2 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row), but the Escape’s cargo space may be plenty for your needs.
“I heard about
Jerry
through a podcast and decided to try it out. My 2008 Range Rover Sport was costing me $168/month before Jerry found me the exact same coverage for $84/month under Plymouth Rock. I’ll definitely keep shopping for insurance with Jerry.” —Eileen P.
