Ford Escape 2008 Overview

The Escape is Ford's smallest sport-utility 4WD and has been completely overhauled for 2008. It offers comfortable seating for four and plenty of space for stuff. Folding down the rear seats reveals a moderate cargo area with a flat floor. Its smooth ride and car-like handling make for easy driving, helped by its compact dimensions. For the GCC, a 3.0-litre V6 is standard, and it only gets a 4-speed automatic. The 2008 version's carryover V6 was replaced by an upgraded V6 for 2009, with more power and a 6-speed automatic. The Escape also comes standard with cloth seats, illuminated remote entry, power door locks, windows and mirrors, tilt steering column, speed controls on the steering wheel, electric power steering, 15-inch steel wheels and CD stereo with iPod jack. Upgrades include premium cloth upholstery or leather, power front seats, a power moonroof, cruise control, 16-inch aluminium wheels, various premium audio system choices and parking sensors. The Escape comes standard with front, side and curtain airbags, ABS brakes and AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control. It has all-wheel-drive and decent ground clearance, but it does not have the low range gearing to tackle serious turf.
