2017 Ford Escape + Essence #MyFordCity Takes Atlanta Tuesday 29 November, 2016
Hey guys I am coming to you all with another Ford car review. They have been so kind to me lately so after driving the 2017 Ford Fusion Energi, I got to drive it’s big brother the 2017 Ford Escape. Th cute sporty and stylish appearance includes a black-out trim, sport seats, leather-trimmed shift lever and steering wheel, and more.
The new 2017 Ford Escape is definitely a great SUV to drive. I loved driving this car so much, and one of the best parts is that this is also set up with hi-tech features that link to your smartphone.
Ford must know keep staying with the trend that everyone is still very much attached to their phones, so the 2017 Ford Escape has their new FORDPASS app that syncs your phone to any new Ford vehicle.The new state of the art technology turns your Ford car into your smart phone so hands free calling, navigating, music listening options, and even text messaging with the CarSync features. Its the exact same technology I covered a few weeks ago with the 2017 Ford Fusion Energi so if you want to see more on it click here for the details.
2017 Escape is smarter than ever. Available technology can alert you to unintentional lane drift, warn you of a vehicle in your blind spot, auto-maneuver you into (or out of) a tight parking spot, or open the available hands-free, foot-operated liftgate with just a gentle kick under the rear bumper. And the EcoBoost® engines feature Auto Start-Stop Technology to help save fuel when you’re driving in the city.

what a great opportunity you got to test drive this!! I am so curious about it now. The lane drift and blind spot warning are all things I would love to have one day!
I think the hands-free lift gate is a great feature! It’s perfect for when you are trying to load the car for a trip – or after a day of shopping. The Escape looks very sleek and nice!
Ford seems to be uplifting its products in recent times.
My dad is always complimenting when he sees a Ford; he says the paint job on them seems to unusually glisten well.
This Escape is gorgeous! I love Ford’s. My son just got his first car and it’s an older Mustang. My other son wants an f150 when he’s older. I need to find out if one of these events will be near me!
Nice! We are in the market for a car, but I’ll probably have a hard time convincing my husband to get anything other than some sort of sedan. I like this though!
The Ford escape is a cute compact. It isn’t one of my faves of the Ford SUV/Compact SUV fleet. I liked it better when it was on a truck frame versus the one it’s on now. Great review.
I’m going to be in the market for a new car in the next year or so and clearly this needs to go on my list! Love the features and the fact that it is a SUV without being giant!
I have this car but the 2015 version. I love love love love it. I hope to be able to have it for many years to come! 🙂 The new version looks incredible!
The feature of ‘auto-maneuver you into (or out of) a tight parking spot’ is a great help for someone like me who always has problem at a tight parking spot. The color of the car is gorgeous and brave.
Love how this SUV can connect to your phone and those safety features, like shifting lanes, is amazing. This color is so pretty! http://www.robincharmagne/blog
I’ve been in a variety of Ford vehicles but never the Escape. I love that they had increased the technology and it can now work with your phone. The red color really grabs the eye.
Love the redesigns on the new Fords. The color on this Escape is gorgeous. FORD is really stepping up their game with their technology. Opening the hatch with your foot is everything! lol
[…] already previewed 2 myself before the new year has started; the 2017 Ford Fusion Energi and the 2017 Ford Escape. Im glad the attendees got to test drive them as well so people can see how well they ride. Thank […]
Cute car! Your blogs are sop full of life that I feel like I am there. Thanks for sharing.
Love how this can connect to your phone and those safety features, like shifting lanes, is amazing! And, how sporty chic is this vehicle?

Oooh, I like that it’s an SUV but doesn’t look massive. I need the space, but hate feeling like I’m driving a bus!
WHat a nice car! I wouldnt mind having one.
I love Ford SUV’s I will have to look into this I wish there were photo’s of the interior.
I’m going to be in the market for a new car in the next year or so and clearly this needs to go on my list! Love the features and the fact that it is a SUV without being giant!

I love all of the features they have on today’s cars. Ford is always a brand favorite for us in my family.
Ford has always been a trusted name for us. This looks like a great vehicle and it’s also very easy on the eyes.
This is so nice! I think we will be in the market for a new truck next year and this one if going on my list!
I’ll take one please, and exactly that color. This is one snazzy SUV! It’s the right size and has all the little doodads you could ever need. Nice!
That car looks and sounds amazing! Love the color and all of the features!
Wow! That looks beautiful. I know that people love Ford vehicles, this looks great…love the color!!

The Ford is my dream car! I’m currently car shopping and it is at the top of my list simply because of the AdvanceTrac.
Congratulations!
I drove the Escape when I was in Atlanta earlier this year and loved it. Not a huge American car fan, but it was nice. lol
My husband and I are dying to get a new car! We have a van right now and we’re years passed ready! I’d love to check this out!
I actually have the Ford Escape and it really is a fantastic car. The space inside is great and it’s reliable.
This is a cute ride. That red color is really poppin!
Omg what a fabulous ride!!! My hubby had an escape a few years ago and loved the thing!!!
I’ve been in a variety of Ford vehicles but never the Escape. I love that they had increased the technology and it can now work with your phone. The red color really grabs the eye.

This Ford Escape is really cute. And I love the technology that connects your phone with the car!
I have been on the search for a new SUV because mine isn’t as spacious and id like. The Ford Escape looks like it has so many great perks.
