Performance and Precision for the Wabash Valley

Under the hood of this 2024 Ford Escape ST-Line Elite lies a potent EcoBoost 2L I-4 gasoline direct injection engine, delivering a robust 250HP. This powerplant is designed for those who want a bit more spirit in their drive, featuring a DOHC, iVCT variable valve control system and an intercooled turbocharger that ensures power is always available when you need it. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission, the gear changes are smooth and intuitive, whether you are accelerating onto the highway or navigating stop-and-go traffic.

The driving experience is further refined by the Automatic full-time All Wheel Drive system, providing confidence regardless of the season. In west-central Indiana, where weather can change in an instant, having a Driver selectable drivetrain mode allows you to tailor the vehicle's response to the road conditions. The Sport Tuned Suspension and Independent front and rear suspension work in harmony to provide a ride that is both firm and comfortable, minimizing body roll through corners while soaking up imperfections in the pavement.

Efficiency is also a priority, with the Auto stop-start engine feature helping to conserve fuel during long lights or heavy traffic. To ensure the powertrain remains at peak performance, the vehicle includes a Transmission oil cooler and a Lock-up transmission system. Whether you are taking a scenic drive through the rolling hills of the region or maintaining a steady pace on the interstate, the Selectable mode transmission ensures that the Escape is always in the right gear for the moment, providing a 31 highway MPG rating that makes long-distance travel much more economical.

Advanced Technology and Seamless Connectivity

The interior of the Escape ST-Line Elite is a hub of modern technology, centered around a massive 13.2 inch primary display that serves as the command center for your digital life. This Primary monitor touchscreen utilizes SYNC 4 with Enhanced Voice Recognition, allowing you to control audio, navigation, and even the climate with simple voice commands. With Alexa-Built-In, your virtual assistant is always ready to help you manage your schedule or find the nearest point of interest while keeping your eyes on the road.

Drivers will appreciate the 12.30 inch gauge cluster display, which provides a fully digital and customizable view of essential vehicle information. For even more convenience, the Head-up display projects critical data directly onto the windshield, so you never have to look away from the path ahead. Staying connected is effortless thanks to Smart device wireless mirroring and Wireless audio streaming, ensuring your favorite playlists and apps are always available.

The Connected Navigation system w/Voice Activation includes SiriusXM Traffic Real-Time Traffic Display, helping you navigate around delays during your afternoon commute. For those who rely on their devices, the Front wireless smart device charging pad and 4 USB ports ensure everyone's gear stays powered up. The audio experience is equally impressive, featuring Steering wheel mounted audio controls that allow you to manage the SYNC 4 system without ever taking your hands off the Leatherette steering wheel.

Premium Comfort and Interior Craftsmanship

Step inside to find an environment defined by the Ebony LTHR TRIM/RED STITCH interior, where sport-inspired aesthetics meet premium comfort. The Leather front seat upholstery is accented by bold red stitching, creating a cabin that feels both energetic and sophisticated. Both the driver and front passenger can find their perfect position with the 8-Way Driver Seat featuring 2-way power lumbar support and the 6-Way Passenger Seat, both of which are Heated front seats for those chilly Indiana mornings.

The attention to detail extends to the Heated steering wheel and the Dual-zone front climate control, allowing both the driver and passenger to set their preferred temperatures. For added convenience, the Memory settings include the door mirrors and drivers seat, ensuring that your preferred driving position is restored at the touch of a button. The cabin is also exceptionally practical, featuring 60-40 folding rear seats with manual fore and aft adjustment, allowing you to prioritize either passenger legroom or cargo space depending on your needs.

Loading the vehicle is a breeze with the Power Liftgate Rear Cargo Access, which can be triggered via the Intelligent Access with hands-free access system. Inside, you will find a Mini Overhead Console w/Storage, 2 12V DC Power Outlets, and a Covered floor console storage area to keep your personal items organized. The Metal-look interior accents and Simulated Wood Instrument Panel Insert add a touch of class to the dashboard, while the Fade-To-Off Interior Lighting provides a premium feel when entering or exiting the vehicle at night.

Comprehensive Safety and Driver Assistance

Safety is paramount in the 2024 Ford Escape ST-Line Elite, which comes equipped with a suite of advanced driver assistance technologies. The 360 Degree Camera system provides an aerial view of the vehicle, making it much easier to navigate tight parking spots or see obstacles that might otherwise be hidden. When parking, the Active Park Assist 2.0 automatic vehicle parking system can take over the steering, shifting, braking, and accelerating to guide you into a spot with ease.

On the road, the Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go helps maintain a safe distance from the vehicle ahead, even in heavy traffic. The BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) acts as an extra set of eyes, alerting you to vehicles in your blind spots, while the Lane Keeping Alert helps keep you centered in your lane. For emergency situations, the PCA with AEB and Intersection Assist provides forward collision mitigation, and the Rear Cross-Traffic Braking system helps prevent accidents when backing out of driveways or parking spaces.

The Escape is also built with a robust physical safety structure, featuring 7 airbags, including a Driver side knee airbag and the Safety Canopy System curtain first and second-row overhead airbags. The Post-Collision Braking system is designed to automatically apply the brakes after a collision to help prevent a secondary impact.
