2019 Ford Escape

The base trim, the Escape S provides all of the standard features you expect and LED taillights, a manual liftgate, and 17-inch steel wheels with covers painted in silver sparkle color. Step up to the SE trim for some added chrome accents in the beltline molding and upper grille, plus a dual chrome exhaust. You'll also get fog lamps, skid plates, black roof rails, privacy glass for the second row and liftgate, and 17-inch aluminum wheels. Upgrade to the SEL trim for perks like a power liftgate, heated side mirrors, and 17-inch silver aluminum wheels. Even more upgrades come with the Titanium trim, including silver roof rails, a foot-activated liftgate, and side mirrors with integrated turn signals.

Depending on which trim level you choose, your 2019 Ford Escape will be equipped with one of three engines. The base engine option is a 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder, 165-horsepower engine with a six-speed automatic transmission with the SelectShift system. The 1.5-liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine uses automatic start-and-stop technology to turn off the engine when it's not needed to save energy. A 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine with Twin Scroll technology offers more power with 245 horsepower and impressive towing capability. When equipped with a trailer towing package, this engine can help the Escape tow up to 3,500 pounds.

If you choose the intelligent four-wheel-drive system, you'll enjoy ideal control and traction in any road conditions. The necessary torque for the front and rear wheels is delivered at the ideal time for precise handling and control. The Ford Escape's torque vectoring control system senses when the vehicle is moving too fast and will slow it down with anti-lock brakes and throttle reduction to ensure the driver maintains control. Curves are handled smoothly thanks to the torque vectoring control's ability to transfer power to whichever wheels have the best grip during the turn.

You'll be able to seat five people comfortably in the 2019 Ford Escape and carry up to 68 cubic-feet's worth of cargo when the rear seats are folded down. A 60/40 split in the rear seats allows for different configurations for the cargo and seating you need. Enjoy plenty of natural light with the available panoramic vista roof. Leather accents throughout the cabin are also available in the upper trims, plus dual-zone climate control, and a remote start system. Ford's SYNC 3 infotainment system provides total connectivity while on the road. Upgrade to a 10-speaker sound system by Sony for top-quality tunes.

A wealth of driver assistance features are available with the Escape for peace of mind and extra safety. Rear cross-traffic alert and adaptive cruise control help keep you a safe distance from other drivers. Ford's Safety Canopy System will keep everyone well-protected in the event of an accident.
