Yes, you can use the InvisiBrake on your 2021 Ford Escape Hybrid; all you'd need is one additional part, a brake light relay kit, which is needed so your Escape's brake signal does not override the turn signal when you are braking during a turn. So the exact parts you'll need are the following:

- Roadmaster InvisiBrake Supplemental Braking System # RM-8700

- Roadmaster Brake-Lite Relay Kit for Towed Vehicles # RM-88400
