Interior Features
The Ford Escape makes many comfort and convenience features available across its four trim levels and numerous packages. The S trim, for instance, comes with cloth-trimmed seats and a height-adjustable driver's seat. All very standard stuff. The SE trim makes some important additions, adding in keyless entry, push-button start, and a host of package options. The Cold Weather package adds heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and automatic climate control. The Convenience package adds a power liftgate, dual-zone automatic climate control, and a rear armrest. The SE also offers up an optional panoramic sunroof. The SEL comes standard with the Cold Weather package and convenience package while also adding faux leather upholstery and parking sensors The Titanium trim level includes ambient interior lighting, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a power adjustable passenger seat, and front parking sensors. Optional interior features available with the Titanium include leather upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and a panoramic sunroof.
Performance
The Ford Escape strays from other compact SUVs in the performance realm by offering up a wide variety of different engine options. The new Ford Escape offers drivers two gas engines along with a hybrid and plug-in hybrid engine options. Drivers can enjoy a choice between front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive with the base engine while all other powertrains feature standard all-wheel drive. The base engine that comes standard with the Ford Escape S is a 1.5-liter turbocharged inline-3 engine that makes 181 horsepower and 190 pound-feet of torque. IF you're after even more power, then there's the optional 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-4 engine, which makes 250 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. If you're interested in adding some mild electric propulsion to the mix, then there's the plug-in hybrid and hybrid to consider. The plug-in hybrid version of the Ford Escape is powered by a 2.5-liter inline-4/88-kW electric motor that combines to create 200 horsepower and up to 37 miles of pure-electric driving range. Comparatively, the Escape Hybrid features a 2.5-liter inline-4/88-kW electric motor combination that makes 200 horsepower and offers front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive configurations. All engines pair with an 8-speed automatic transmission.
Technology
Tech offerings range greatly, with even the base S trim level of the Ford Escape offering drivers an impressive set of features. The base S trim of the Ford Escape comes with a 4.2-inch infotainment display, Bluetooth connectivity, an AM/FM radio, and a basic audio system. If you're a Baltimore area driver in need of a bit more tech, then there's the SE to consider. The SE trim makes major improvements, adding an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment display, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, satellite radio, and rear USB ports. Additional tech can be had with the SE trim level via packages. The Co-Pilot360 Assist+ package adds a navigation system (amongst many other things). The SEL trim comes with the same set of tech offerings as the SE in its most basic form. However, if you're looking to increase tech with the SEL trim, there's an optional Technology package. This package lives up to its name by adding in a digital instrument panel, a 10-speaker B&O premium audio system, and wireless charging. The top-level Titanium trim leaves little to be desired thanks to a long list of optional tech features. The Titanium Elite package allows Baltimore drivers to enjoy wireless charging, a B&O premium audio system, and a head-up display.
