2015 Escape oil smell

Recently bought a used 2015 Escape SE.. .1.6L engine AWD.. 23K on the clock.. Getting a oil smell in the cabin..Any suggestions.. Don't see any obvious oil leaks.. Maybe something to do with turbo breathing ? Nice car, runs great.. Any ideas ?

Are you sure there’s no leaks? It might be dripping onto the exhaust and burning off instead of leaving spots. Get the front end on jack stands and do a thorough inspection from underneath.

Beyond that, have you been driving it long enough to determine if it’s using too much oil?
