Redesign of exterior and interior
If we compare the upcoming 2016 Ford
Escape with its current model, we won’t be able to see many changes. New
Escape is about to be just slightly redesigned. It will be designed as
a modern SUV with an elegant line giving it better aerodynamics. The
platform this model will use is Ford’s Global C platform. New model will
come with redesigned headlights, taillights, bigger grille and with
bigger bumper too. Redesigned new grille will come in three parts and
headlights should go with LED lights.
The hood will be narrower and the roof will come with roof rack and
light signals. As far as rear part of the vehicle is concerned, it will
suffer some changes too. Here we could see large LED lights with two
chrome exhaust pipes. New Escape will be equipped with new and
redesigned aluminum wheels. Like before, the Escape is designed for five
passengers. The interior of the vehicle will be very spacious and made
only with high quality materials. Some of the features this new Ford’s
SUV will also share with its owners are: airbags, electronic stability,
ABS, engine immobilizer, traction control etc.
The 2016 Ford Escape is a compact crossover SUV that comes in three trim levels: S, SE and Titanium.
Standard features on the S include 17-inch steel wheels, an integrated blind-spot mirror, MyKey parental controls, full power accessories, keyless entry, cruise control, air-conditioning, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, a height-adjustable driver seat, a 60/40-split folding and reclining rear seat, a 4.2-inch central display, a rearview camera, the Sync voice command electronics interface with AppLink smartphone integration, Bluetooth phone and audio connectivity and a six-speaker sound system with a CD player and a USB port.
Upgrading to the SE adds 17-inch alloy wheels (optional on S), the 1.6-liter turbocharged engine, automatic headlights, foglights, a keyless entry keypad, rear privacy glass, an eight-way power-adjustable driver seat (with power lumbar), upgraded cloth upholstery, a rear center armrest and satellite radio.
The optional SE Convenience package adds roof rails, rear parking sensors, dual-zone automatic climate control, a 110-volt household-style power outlet, the Sync 3 technology interface (including an 8-inch touchscreen) and a nine-speaker sound system with dual USB ports. The SE Leather Comfort package contributes heated mirrors, leather upholstery and heated front seats. You can also get the heated seats and mirrors, plus a windshield wiper de-icer with the Cold Weather package. Also available are a power liftgate (requires SE Convenience package), 18-inch wheels and remote ignition.
At the top of the line, the Titanium combines the SE packages and options listed above with an exclusive foot sensor for the power liftgate, keyless entry and ignition, ambient interior lighting, an eight-way power-adjustable passenger seat (with power lumbar), driver memory settings, an auto-dimming rearview mirror and a 10-speaker Sony audio system with HD radio.
Titanium options include a Technology package (xenon headlights, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, automatic wipers and a self-parking system) and 19-inch alloy wheels.
Optional on both SE and Titanium are a panoramic sunroof and a navigation system.
In Edmunds brake testing, an Escape SE 1.6 came to a stop from 60 mph in an admirably short 115 feet.
In government crash tests, the Escape earned an overall rating of four stars (out of a possible five), with four stars for total frontal-impact crash protection and five stars for total side-impact protection. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gave the Escape a top score of "Good" in its moderate-overlap frontal-offset, side-impact and roof-strength crash tests. The Escape's seat and head restraint design was also rated "Good" for whiplash protection in rear impacts, but it received the lowest score of "Poor" in the small-overlap frontal-offset crash test.
