Preferences

The 2019 Ford Escape offers some great preferences for customers. These preferences will increase driver experience. Some great options to considering adding to your 2019 Ford Escape are listed below.

Intelligent 4WD System 

Ford heard their customers about wanting the flexibility and freedom to handle any terrain. Que the intelligent 4WD system!

The intelligent 4WD system is a terrain management system that allows the driver to properly match their 4WD traction to driving conditions.

Auto Start-Stop Technology

Have you ever been on the road, and heard a car shut off, but then turn back on? Maybe you thought it was a little weird that the driver would do that?

This is not the driver turning their vehicle on and off, but Auto Start/Stop technology. This technology allows the vehicle’s engine to shut down during stops.

This ensures that the vehicle emits zero emissions and burns no fuel, while stopped. This not only saves you money at the gas pump, but it lowers your vehicles CO2 impacts on the climate.

EcoBoost® Engine 

The Ford EcoBoost® engine technology allows for better performance on your vehicle. It marries computer code and engine transmission.

It also achieves a fuel injection that allows for less wasted fuel, which means more saved is saved at the gas pump.

Optional Upgrades

We love the optional upgrades that are available for the 2019 Ford Escape. They enhance the driver, and passenger, experience. Some of our favorites are listed below.

Panoramic Vista Roof®

Consumers are looking to panoramic roofs 30% more than they used to.

The Panoramic Vista Roof® in the 2019 Ford Escape features a large forward panel that tilts up (or opens fully) and a fixed rear skylight. This means that you can enjoy the natural light from the Panoramic Vista Roof® sitting up front or in back.

SYNC® 3

Consumers are looking for more ways smart technology can be paired with their vehicle. SYNC® 3 is more intuitive and responsive, and just what you have been looking for!

SYNC® 3 is easy to use, and allows for linking apps from your phone! Be sure to note that while in gear, so options may not be available for safety reasons.

BLIS (Blind Spot Information System)

No more stressing about missing a vehicle in your blind spot, thanks to BLIS. BLIS uses radar sensors to alert you when a vehicle is detected in your blind spot.

This system will notify you by causing the indicator light in your side view mirror to blink. This technology helps keep you, and your passengers, safer on the roads.

What About Pricing?

You may have heard about the “Ford Plan” pricing in the past, but the details were confusing. The “Ford Plan” is a great way to extend a better price!

Ford’s plan offers exciting pricing alternatives to those who qualify. be sure to consider all options before making a decision as there isn’t a single best answer for everyone.

Normal dealer prices can vary because of local availability and demand. It is also possible that the plan prices have been printed on the invoice, and are pre-determined by Ford.
