2022 Ford Escape vs. 2022 Nissan Rogue

The SUV market tends to be pretty crowded so it is remarkable how the 2022 Ford Escape stands out from the crowd. This could perhaps be because here is a vehicle that is a true SUV with real off-roading capabilities. However, it als very practical to drive and the spacious cabin and trunk space allow for functionality. The Ford Escape is at home off the beaten track as it is doing school runs on a mOnday morning. The 2022 Nissan Rogue is also another practical SUV although its off-road capabilities are probably questionable. Here is a comparison between the two vehicles and which of the two you should go for this year.

Design & Style

When it comes to external design, these two vehicles have a lot in common. They are both sporty SUVs with large wheels and well contoured bodies. The Ford Escape in particular features a sporty stance and has been refreshed for 2022 to have LED headlights and beautifully contoured rear light. The difference between the two however is clearly on the inside. The Ford Escape comes with a top-notch cabin that is both comfortable as well as premium looking. This is because Ford has invested in top-quality materials to give the Escap[e’s cabin a premium feel. large and spacious, you will find the Ford Escape can handle bulky luggage with ease. The 2022 Rogue on the other hand has a fairly sub=-par cabin with hard plastics and cheap fabrics everywhere except in the very top trims.

Technology & Safety

When it comes to tech and safety features, the 2022 Ford Escape shines once more. It features plenty of tech even in the most basic trims. These include a superb infotainment system that is intuitive and very responsive to commands. Ford has als fitted safety features such as blind spot monitoring, lane departure warning and much more. With the Nissan Rogue, you also get quite a lot of safety features but their build quality isn’t as good. For example, the Rogue’s infotainment system is a little hard to use and the menu isn’t as intuitively designed as that of the Escape.

Performance

With both vehicles, you get a number of engine variants to choose from with the base model of the Ford Escape featuring a turbocharged 2.0 liter engine. When it comes to the Ford, you get a pretty powerful vehicle regardless of the trim level that you go for. The Ford offers a superb ride with the finely tuned suspension canceling out any road imperfections. The vehicle has true off-roading creds and will handle any off-road track with ease.

The Bottom Line

If you are looking for a hardy SUV that can also handle day-to-dt motoring functions, then you are better off going with the Ford Escape. It comes with better tech and offers a much more enjoyable ride.
