Overview

In today's fuel conscious environment, the Ford Escape offers customers versatility and strong fuel economy.

For 2007, Escape adds two fresh appearance packages that add a touch of class and pump up the excitement. The XLT appearance package includes painted silver metallic fascias, bodyside cladding and wheel lip moldings, with three new exciting exterior colors. The XLT Sport models get an updated and upscale monochromatic appearance package.

The five-passenger SUV is available in XLS Manual, XLS, XLT, XLT Sport and Limited trims in front-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive versions. Buyers can choose one of two engine options, a 2.3-liter I-4 and a 3.0-liter V-6. It is produced at Ford's Kansas City Assembly Plant in Claycomo, Mo.

Design and Equipment

New colors for 2007 include Vista Blue Clearcoat Metallic, Dune Pearl and Tungsten Grey. A new XLT Sport package includes painted body color bodyside cladding, bumpers and wheel lip moldings for a monochromatic appearance. A Silver Appearance Package that includes silver metallic fascias, bodyside cladding and wheel lip moldings is available on XLT models.

Customers can choose from a dozen common equipment configurations in XLS, XLT, XLT Sport and Limited trims. Escape Limited customers can select the Luxury Comfort Package which includes a 320-watt Audiophile stereo with six-disc in-dash CD player, six speakers plus subwoofer, as well as heated front seats, heated side mirrors and the reverse sensing system.

Escape's interior stresses comfort, convenience and roominess. Highlights include a standard flow-through console, floor-mounted shifter, modern gauges, numerous storage spaces and modern seat fabrics. The popular rear liftgate with flip-up glass offers easy access to the generous cargo area. The Cargo Convenience Group available on all models combines a retractable cargo area cover with a rear cargo storage bin for additional utility and security.

Powertrain and Chassis

The Ford Escape offers two engine options - an economical and smooth Duratec 23 four-cylinder engine or the eager 200-horsepower Duratec 30 V-6.

The 2.3-liter Duratec 23 4-cylinder engine has surprised customers with its combination of power and fuel economy. The engine develops 153 horsepower and 152 pound-feet of torque, while a balance shaft provides exceptional smoothness. The four-cylinder engine is backed by either a 4-speed automatic or 5-speed manual transmission.

Standard on XLT Sport and Limited is the 200 horsepower Duratec 30 V-6 engine.

The available automatic Intelligent 4WD System provides excellent traction and stability with a smooth, fuel-efficient operation, even in slippery conditions. The computer-controlled system operates so seamlessly that its engagement is barely noticeable to most drivers. Escape is also available in a front-wheel-drive configuration.

Known among enthusiasts for its hallmark driving character on pavement, Escape is the only small SUV designed to pass the rigorous Tough Truck testing given to all Ford trucks and SUVs.

Safety and Security

Safety is paramount with Escape. Its body structure has been designed to perform well in offset frontal crashes, while standard safety equipment includes dual front air bags with passenger-seat weight-sensing technology. The Personal Safety System® with occupant classification sensor is standard on all models, and three-point safety belts are standard at all seating positions. A tire pressure monitoring system also is standard on all series.

Anti-lock brakes are standard across the lineup. The available Safety Package combines Ford's exclusive Safety Canopy™ rollover protection system with front side air bags.
