Welcome to FRF,
and YES you'll need a different tow vehicle.
The "dry" tongue alone already exceeds the Escape's max hitch capacity. And that's without battery, propane, water and cargo.
And the loaded weight of the trailer will also exceeds the Escape's max towing.
And thirdly, the Escape has a frontal area limit which the trailer will easily exceed.
