The Escort was one of Ford's most successful models in the 1980s. In fact, the car was the single best-selling car in the United States during most of that decade. The examples and perspective in this article or section may not represent a worldwide view. ...
1981 Introduced in 1981, the first American Escort was intended to share common components with the European Mk III (as with its sister, the Mercury Lynx), and was launched as a 2-door hatchback and as a 4-door station wagon, with the 4-door hatchback following a year later. It had considerably more chrome than the model sold elsewhere, and although the basic silhouette was the same, it was almost completely different from the European version, apart from the Ford CVH engine. There was a 1.6 L engine, 4 or 5-speed manual or 3-speed automatic transmissions. A 1.3 L engine was designed and prototyped but did not see production due to lack of power. Also, in 1983 and 1984, there was the option of the turbocharged 1.6L 4-cylinder rated at 120 horsepower and matching torque, not too bad for the day (the Mustang GT was only rated at 175, and in a much heavier package). 1981 (MCMLXXXI) was a common year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

1985 There was a minor facelift (less chrome, flush headlights, 1.9 L engine) for 1985. The Lynx was retired for 1987, replaced with the Mazda 323-derived Mercury Tracer, which formed the basis for the next-generation Escort.

Ford, which owned a 25% stake in Mazda, already sold a version of the 323 in Asia and Australasia, called the Ford Laser, which replaced the old rear wheel drive Escort there.

1997 The 1997 restyle dropped the hatchbacks and added a new sporty coupe for 1998, the Escort ZX2.

The 1998 Escort ZX2 featured the 2.0 L, 130 hp (97 kW) Zetec dual overhead cam four-cylinder engine as standard equipment, an option unavailable on the sedan or wagon. Intended for use as the base engine in the larger European Ford Mondeo and their American cousins, the Ford Contour and Mercury Mystique, the Zetec gave the ZX2 more-than-respectable performance, further enhanced by the 146 hp (109 kW) version in the limited-production ZX2 S/R.

The writing was really on the wall that same year with the North American debut of the Ford Focus. Though not without its fans, both then and now, and still fairly well-represented in the automotive aftermarket, the ZX2 was replaced by the Focus. Though the two cars shared the same "Zetec" engine, there were a few differences. The Focus lacked the exhaust-side VCT, and contained less aggressive camshafts that pushed the power band down a few hundred RPM. They both shared the same block, but due to the different camshafts and the different cylinder head, the torque output for the Focus was bumped up by 8 ft·lbf (10.8 N·m). Thanks to better gearing and less weight the ZX2 continued to outperform the Focus. While the Focus would go on to become the new "darling" of the import tuner set, much to the consternation of Honda, the ZX2 continued with little more than 15 in (381 mm) alloy wheels and rear defroster now offered as standard equipment, and for 2003, a revised front fascia. Production ceased at the end of the 2003 model year. This article or section is not written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. ...
