Low mileage and everyday usability are the strongest themes in this 2023 Ford Escape Active, finished in Star White Metallic Tri-Coat and showing just 15,459 miles. Its compact footprint makes it easy to manage in traffic and parking lots, while the elevated seating position, flexible rear seat, and useful cargo area give it the practicality buyers expect from a small SUV. For commuting between Wesley Chapel and Tampa, running errands around New Tampa, or handling a weekend trip across the Tampa Bay area, this Escape is sized to be convenient without feeling stripped down.

Power comes from Ford's 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The turbocharged three-cylinder is designed to provide useful low- and mid-range response for everyday acceleration while keeping the Escape light and maneuverable. Front-wheel drive also keeps the mechanical layout straightforward for drivers whose use is primarily paved roads, commuting, and family transportation. The suspension and steering are tuned for the kind of mixed city and highway driving that defines daily ownership in the Tampa area.

The Active trim emphasizes comfort and modern connectivity rather than unnecessary complexity. Ford's 2023 Escape lineup uses the SYNC 4 interface, and the cabin is designed around straightforward access to audio, phone, and vehicle functions. Smartphone integration helps keep familiar apps and communication functions within easy reach, while steering-wheel controls reduce the need to look away from the road.

Cloth seating, a split-folding rear seat, multiple storage areas, and the Escape's wide rear hatch make the interior adaptable for groceries, work bags, sports gear, luggage, and other everyday cargo.

Ford Co-Pilot360 technology gives the Escape a useful foundation of driver-assistance features for busy roads. Systems designed to help monitor surrounding traffic, support lane awareness, and assist with braking can reduce workload during routine driving, while a rearview camera makes backing into a space or checking the area behind the vehicle easier.

The Escape's proportions are another practical advantage. It is tall enough to provide SUV-style access and cargo flexibility, but it does not demand the parking space or fuel consumption of a larger three-row vehicle. The rear seating area can handle passengers during the week, then fold to open additional room when the priority shifts to cargo.
That combination makes it a strong fit for a buyer who wants one vehicle to cover commuting, errands, airport runs, and weekend plans without stepping up to a larger SUV.

This Escape qualifies as Ford Gold Certified under the established program standards. Its Gold Certified coverage includes a 172-point inspection, a 12-month/12,000-mile Comprehensive Limited Warranty, a seven-year/100,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty, 24/7 Roadside Assistance, and applicable FordPass Rewards Points. That certification adds meaningful inspection and warranty coverage to an already appealing low-mileage configuration.

Parks Plus adds another layer of ownership support with protective treatments for paint, headlights, and interior surfaces, anti-theft VIN etching, roadside assistance, identity-theft protection and restoration, stolen-vehicle assistance, collision loyalty credit, cabin sanitizer, and antimicrobial protectant. With its low mileage, clean CARFAX and one-owner history shown in the dealer record, modern turbocharged powertrain, flexible interior, and Gold Certified benefits, this Star White Escape Active is an especially well-rounded choice for daily driving around Wesley Chapel and throughout Tampa Bay.
