FordPass® Connect unlocks a 4G LTE in-vehicle Wi-Fi hotspot (powered by AT&T). When equipped, up to 10 devices can connect within 50 feet outside the vehicle, making it ideal for passengers streaming, working, or gaming on the go.
The Escape also offers Alexa Built-In, accessible through SYNC 4 and Premium Connectivity. It brings voice control, navigation, smart-home access, and hands-free assistance directly inside the app screen and console display.
With 104 cubic feet of passenger volume, the Ford Escape provides a comfortable ride for you and up to four other passengers. Each row is also supplied with a great deal of headroom and legroom. On top of that, there’s additional room to pack up supplies in the back of your Escape.
Use the rear cargo space to fit luggage, coolers, and sporting equipment, or groceries and other items you bought while out shopping. If you need more room for cargo, the rear seats can be folded flat. Doing this will allow you to transport even larger items with a maximum of 65.4 cubic feet of cargo volume inside the Escape.
Every Escape can be equipped with two Passive Keyless Keysets (passive keys) for easy entry and starting. It also includes SecuriLock, Ford’s anti-theft immobilizer system. The available AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control™ (RSC®) is a stability system that helps maintain control during sudden maneuvers or slippery conditions. It’s standard across all trims, often paired with torque-vectoring control.
The available Safety Canopy® System is a roof-mounted airbag system that deploys in rollovers or side impacts. It covers both rows of seating and includes rollover sensors to enhance occupant protection
There are also multiple trim levels to choose from with the Ford Escape. The Active, which is the base trim level, offers standard driver-assistive features like BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert and Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking.
Stepping up to the SE, you’ll get the addition of a 10-way power driver’s seat and the SYNC® 4 infotainment system. Load and unload cargo even easier with the hands-free, foot-activated liftgate that is featured in the Escape SEL.
The Titanium offers the most luxurious ride of all the Ford Escape trim levels. In this trim level, you’ll enjoy a first-class driving experience on the leather-trimmed front bucket seats while your favorite songs play through the 10-speaker B&O™ Sound System by Bang & Olufsen.
