Introducing the 2024 Ford Bronco: Unleashing the Wild

From this compact SUV's attractive design to its fantastic array of technology, the 2024 Ford Escape is the perfect car for anyone seeking a modern and attractive SUV for the family. Whether you choose one of the two gas engines or one of the two hybrid powertrains, you're getting a capable, compact, and comfortable car you'll enjoy taking trips in. more The 2024 Ford Escape: Versatility Meets Innovation Cabin Fit for Cargo When driving the Escape with a full load of passengers, you've got 37.5 cubic feet of space for cargo in gas engine models and 34.4 cubic feet of space for your luggage in the hybrid models. However, if you need to transport a little more cargo, then fold down some or all of the second row to fill the cabin up with everything you're transporting. With that row fully flat, you've got 65.4 or 60.8 cubic feet to fill depending on the model. Easily Tow Your Trailer The Escape is tough enough to handle a little towing. If you've got an AWD model with the 2-liter EcoBoost engine and the Class II Trailer Tow Package, then you can tow up to 3,500 pounds. The next strongest are FWD and AWD models with the 1.5-liter engine, which can handle up to 2,000 pounds. Both hybrid models can tow up to 1,500 pounds, so every configuration is versatile enough to tow objects that won't fit in the cabin. Terrific Safety Tech There are plenty of standard safety features in the Escape, including plenty of airbags, an SOS Post-Crash Alert System, and a Rear View Camera. You can also equip a 360-Degree Camera with Split View. The Ford Co-Pilot360 package is also standard, and that gives your car lots of additional safety features in the form of driver assistance technology. These include A Blind Spot Information System with Rear Cross-Traffic Braking and a Lane-Keeping System with multiple features, including Driver Alert. Excellent Entertainment Features The Escape has an infotainment system that's loaded with useful features such as Wi-Fi hotspot capability and wireless smartphone compatibility. You can easily stay entertained thanks to the standard SiriusXM with 360L, which gives you access to a wide array of channels and on-demand content to listen to. You can also access your smartphone-based music streaming apps through the car's infotainment system for further entertainment. Want to get to know more about the Escape?
