US News ranked both of them in the top five vehicles in their class. They are well worth your consideration for that reason. Only one of them will be suitable enough for your liking, however. Here's some helpful information about both of the models so that you can compare them. Contact the dealership when you're done so that you can get an up-close-and-personal look at the one you believe is the winner.
Exterior - 2020 Ford Escape
When you look at the exterior, you'll see that both manufacturers tried to give their models a sporty appearance. Ford was the only one that achieved that without giving the vehicle an awkward appearance. It has a youthful appearance that can turn heads and bring in all crowds of people. We think you'll be happiest with its exterior. Color options include colors such as Sedona Orange Metallic, Velocity Blue Metallic and Desert Gold Metallic.
Reviews - 2020 Ford Escape near Orlando
The next thing to consider is the consumer reviews. They tell stories about prospective vehicles that every shopper needs to know before he or she decides. Consumers were super-pleased with the Ford Escape on all levels. They had nothing but positive things to say about its user-friendly technology, comfortable ride and reliability. The RAV4 consumers sounded like they found the vehicle to be a bit underwhelming. Their biggest complaint was that they heard a noise from the motor at high throttle. They also felt that the pricing was a little high for the vehicle class. Therefore, we are giving the Escape the win in this category.
Performance - Ford Escape specs near Orlando
Both models have a vast selection of trim levels. The Ford Escape starts with a model that has a 1.5-Liter I-3 motor that delivers 190 horsepower. The base RAV4 has a 2.6-Liter I-4 with 203 horsepower. It might seem like the RAV4 is the winner here, but it isn't. All RAV4 motors have the same capabilities, but you can choose a Ford Escape that has a 2.0-Liter Turbo motor with 280 horsepower. That's as much horsepower as some of the new sports cars. Thus, the Ford Escape wins the comparison again.
Price - 2020 Ford Escape dealer
We believe that the pricing is one of the most crucial aspects of shopping for a vehicle. Therefore, we'll start our comparison with the retail costs. The base Ford Escape model starts at about $24,885. The base RAV4 starts at $25, 950. You may not have to invest that much because the dealership serving Orlando Clermont Sanford Mount Dora always runs deals and specials for its respected customers. However, we think the Escape is the better model based on pricing alone. It's the more affordable option that will most likely align with your budget at this time.
Safety - 2020 Ford Escape dealer
The Ford Escape has a high score for safety features, as well. Its suite offers features such as Cross-Traffic Alert, Blind Spot Monitor, Lane Keep Assist and Lane Departure Warning. The Toyota RAV4 has a minimalistic safety feature suite that includes Traction Control and Child Safety Locks. You would have to pay more to get a lot of the features that the Escape offers as standard features. We give the Escape the win again because of all the safety technology.
Reliability - 2020 Ford Escape
Reliability scores are also important as they can give you an idea of how long you can expect to own your car without having problems. JD Power gave the Ford Escape a high reliability score of 4.5 out of five points. Customers confirmed its high reliability in their reviews. The RAV4 only received three points for its reliability. We have to go with the Escape based on reliability alone.
