While Ford is recognized around the world as a top truck manufacturer, it is also known for its versatile and forward-thinking line of crossovers and SUVs. For drivers who do not necessarily need the full towing capacity or cargo hauling space of a Ford truck, a crossover might be a better fit. The Ford Escape is the ideal crossover vehicle for anyone with a busy, adventurous or high-powered lifestyle. The Escape delivers everything that a driver would expect in terms of convenience, comfort, reliability and affordability. It packs a powerful punch to get you where you need to be, but the Escape still provides a smooth and relaxing ride.
The Escape is now available in the following five models.
• S
• SE
• SEL
• Titanium
• SE Sport Hybrid
From the B&O Sound speaker system to fold-down second row of seats, the Escape allows you to enjoy a more serene and customizable driving experience. Feel the breeze and enjoy the sun with the automatic sunroof. Quickly and conveniently access all of your car's most important features using the 12.3-inch digital display, which is safely located right at your sightline to help you avoid taking your eyes off the road while driving.
If you want to save money at the pump, then the gas-powered or plug-in hybrid options for the Escape just might be exactly what you're looking for. Choose between a 1.5 or 2.0L Ecoboost engine for a gas-powered Escape. You may also be interested in the plug-in hybrid version of the Escape, which will be available later this year.
One of the most popular safety features of the Escape is its collision avoidance technology. It includes automatic braking when the system determines that there is a pedestrian or other object in the path of your moving car and that you have not yet engaged the brakes. Avoid collisions while backing up with the helpful backup camera in the Escape.
Another aspect of the Escape that helps make it a favorite amongst drivers of all ages is its stability features. The various driving modes that you can select from allow you to stay safe in a range of different weather conditions, such as heavy rain, strong winds, sleet, snow, ice or other uneven terrains. You will notice better traction and increased responsiveness when taking advantage of the appropriate driving mode in the Escape.
