- 3.5L Ti-VCT V6 (Standard): Standard on the SE, SEL, and Limited trims, this engine was updated for 2013 with an increase to 288 horsepower and 254 lb-ft of torque.
- 2.0L EcoBoost Turbo 4-Cylinder (Optional): This engine was new for 2013, offering 240 horsepower and 270 lb-ft of torque. It was available as an option on front-wheel-drive (FWD) SE, SEL, and Limited models.
- 3.5L EcoBoost Twin-Turbo V6 (SHO): Available only in the performance-oriented SHO model, this engine produced 365 horsepower and 350 lb-ft of torque.
- Transmission: A 6-speed automatic transmission is standard on all models. Most trims (except the base SE) included paddle shifters for manual control.
- Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive (FWD) is standard, with all-wheel drive (AWD) optional on SEL and Limited trims and standard on the SHO.
- 3.5L V6 (FWD): 19 mpg city, 29 mpg highway.
- 3.5L V6 (AWD): 18 mpg city, 26 mpg highway.
- 2.0L EcoBoost 4-cylinder (FWD): 22 mpg city, 32 mpg highway.
- 3.5L EcoBoost V6 (SHO): 17 mpg city, 25 mpg highway.
- SE: The base model features a power driver’s seat, tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel with audio controls, and Ford’s MyKey system.
- SEL: Adds features such as optional AWD, paddle shifters, and an upgraded audio system.
- Limited: The top-tier luxury trim includes leather upholstery, heated and cooled front seats, and the MyFord Touch infotainment system.
- SHO: The high-performance model includes the twin-turbo V6 engine, standard AWD, a sport-tuned suspension, and unique exterior and interior styling.
- MyFord Touch Infotainment System: Many users found the MyFord Touch system on higher trims to be complex, slow, and distracting to use while driving.
- Water Pump Failure (3.5L V6): On models with the 3.5L engine, the internal water pump can fail, leading to coolant mixing with engine oil and causing major engine damage. This can be a very expensive repair.
- Poor Outward Visibility: The car’s thick roof pillars and high beltline create limited outward visibility, particularly when backing up. A rearview camera is highly recommended.
- Automatic Headlight Malfunction: Some owners have reported issues with the automatic headlight system malfunctioning.
- Idle Air Bypass Valve: Some models have had issues with the idle air bypass valve, which can cause engine performance problems and stalling.
