Every single industry is always changing and striving for improvement, from technology to car manufacturers. Ford decided to reboot the Escape for the 2017 model, and it just might be the best one yet. There are some dealers that you can buy a Ford Escape in Bedford Park from at a reasonable price. Here are some of the upgrades the Escape got for 2017.
Interior Changes
Some minor changes that were made for the interior include a moved shifter, giving consumers more space and a heated steering wheel. Ford also made the glove compartment swing outward, making storage easier than ever. The 2017 model comes with Sync 3, which can be very helpful for some customers.
You can download a smartphone mobile application that will show you how much fuel is in the car, unlock the doors, or start the engine. They have also made the parking brake electronic, freeing even more space for people to store things. Ford has also used rear suspension for a smoother ride as well as making the car quieter than ever.
Engine
Ford has decided to make the basic model Escapes with a 1.5 liter EcoBoost engine instead of the 1.6-liter engine. The smaller engine will not lack in performance and still maintain good gas mileage. The smaller engine will still put out around 180 horsepower, in an efficient way since the EcoBoost engines are turbocharged and the fuel is injected directly into the engine. Customers can also upgrade their engine to the 2.0 liter four cylinder EcoBoost engine, which performs at 245 horsepower. Both engines can provide you with optimum gas mileage and power. They are also both have six speed automatic transmissions.
Bottom line, the 2017 Escape not only looks sleeker and more appealing, it comes with some great new features. This vehicle has great performance and is a great SUV for anybody.
