Exterior - 2020 Ford Escape

When it comes to exterior features, both auto manufacturers have different ideas about what a crossover should contain. The RAV4 contains a more rugged look, and it has an aggressive front end, headlights and high wheel arches that give it a survivalist mentality. The Escape is a bit more elegant and will appeal to those who want a rugged off-road option that also looks good at the next company picnic. Considering Ford's new move toward creating SUVs in the coming years over passenger cars, it makes sense that the Escape would still maintain a hybrid of the passenger car and the SUV.
