ford escape towing capacity australia

In Australia, the Ford Escape’s braked towing capacity typically spans 1,200–1,800 kg by year and engine, with unbraked limited to 750 kg.

As a guide: 1.5-litre petrols sit around 1,500–1,600 kg, the 2.0-litre AWD can reach 1,800 kg, and the PHEV is usually nearer 1,200 kg.

Fit a proper tow pack and trailer brakes to claim the big numbers; a shiny towbar alone won’t bend the laws of paperwork.

Check your VIN plate and owner’s manual because trims and updates shuffle the figures. Consult official documentation for exact figures.
