Ford Escape 2018: Is it 4wd or all wheel drive?

Ford's mid-sized SUV, the Escape, is available as both an all wheel drive and a front wheel drive across its three trim levels (Trend, Titanium, and Ambiente). There is no rear wheel drive model and many don't consider the Escape's all wheel drive to be true 4x4 as there is no low-range option for the transmission, which is traditionally what separated 4x4s from all wheel drives.
