Sarah MacWhirter, of the Globe and Mail feature GlobeAuto, has been busy testing various vehicles that will fit your burgeoning hockey team for both regular practice and weekend away games, while also including other Family activities that happen during the week.
So far Sarah’s articles have not shown her ultimate decision on the perfect busy sports family vehicle, but she has shown serious love for the Escape Hybrid. Why?
One of the main and first reasons Sarah states: “the Ford Escape hybrid easily clocks 598 kilometres of mixed city and highway driving on only 50 litres of gas.

It’s a lovely article and the MacWhirter family and friends have put the Escape to the test.
