4 Reasons to Fall in Love with the 2020 Escape

The 2020 model year release of the Ford Escape brought about quite a few changes and updates from both a technology standpoint and a visual standpoint. If you’re on the lookout for a new SUV this year, be sure to add the 2020 Ford Escape to your must test-drive list. Here are just a few key additions and features on this year’s model. 

Modular Cargo Area

People, now more than ever, require their vehicles to have plenty of cargo room. There’s always a lot to account for. You need your SUV to have plenty of room for both everyday essentials and items you need to bring on your road trips or adventures. One of the interesting things about the 2020 Ford Escape is the seating. Most vehicles, SUV or otherwise, include something similar to 60/40 folding rear seats. The Escape takes it a step further by adding a forward/backward adjustment to the second row of seating. 

This little feature can be the difference in having the room you need. It can also help add more room for teenagers in the back seat when needed. Maximizing your legroom on long road trips can make or break the long stretches of driving. 

Re-Defined Performance Features

In addition to the refined interior, you’ll find more Improvements under the hood. There are four different engine configurations available on the 2020 Ford Escape. One exciting configuration for commuters is the availability of a plug-in electric model. This allows you to get from point A to Point B and back again with little-to-no emissions.

Improved and Updated Technology

Technology on the 2020 Ford Escape has had an overhaul as well. The first thing you’ll notice when you get behind the wheel of the Escape is the updated driver information display. One of the biggest improvements to this information cluster is its modular nature. The monitor behind the steering wheel is over 12 inches long. You can select from more typical information or opt to view more data-driven insights about your driving. 

Another updated area in the technology department is the addition of SYNC3 with FordPass Connect. The SYNC3 technology suite is accessed through the responsive touch-screen display in the center console. Thanks to features such as Bluetooth compatibility, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto, you’ll always have access to your favorite on-road entertainment. The voice-control system has also been improved for this year, giving you more control than in previous model years. 

Full Suite of Driver-Assistance Features

The last exciting feature on the 2020 Ford Escape is the ever-expanding list of included or available driver assistance features. Among the most popular driver assistance features on the Escape are a crossing traffic alert and a complete collision avoidance system that can apply emergency braking assistance to help prevent a collision. Adaptive cruise control with complete stop-and-go compatibility is also available on the 2020 Ford Escape.
