Another day, another powertrain scheme revealed. Based on VIN decoder documents
submitted to the
National Highway Traffic Safety Administration
, we learned of
engine options for the 2020 Lincoln Corsair
. The same paperwork shows 2020
trims and engines with a little variation on the
sibling. The base
S will get
1.3-liter Dragon three-cylinder, with a horsepower yet to be declared. It will replace the 1.5-liter EcoBoost cylinder that makes 179 hp and 177 pound-feet of torque in the current Escape S.
The Corsair’s base engine will be the top-tier engine in the Escape — a 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. As we saw with the Corsair specs, though, it looks like Ford’s cutting back on horsepower. The Escape document lists the 2.0-liter as “240PS GAS,” which is 237 horsepower,

The Escape will come in the same four trims as today: S, SE, SEL and Titanium. Any can be optioned with all-wheel drive, but only the SE, SEL and Titanium offer hybrid options and plug-in hybrid options. On the Corsair, the PHEV is a trim to itself and only available with all-wheel drive. Sadly, there’s

With the Escape due in showrooms sometime this year, we shouldn’t have long to wait to fill in the blanks.
