Launch and Longevity

A Notable Improvement
Compared with its predecessor, the 1990 Escort Mk5—which was described as a terrible car designed cheaply—the 1995 Mk6 was widely regarded as an improvement that remedied many of those issues.
Final Chapter of a Long‑Running Line
As the sixth and final generation, the Mk6 caps a lineage that spanned from 1968 to 2004, making the Escort one of Europe’s longest‑running small family cars across six distinct generations.
