Ford models have always been at the forefront of automotive technology and the 2018 Ford Escape is no exception. Technologies like the Lane-Keeping System and the Adaptive Cruise Control feature use radar sensors located around the vehicle in order to monitor the area around the vehicle. When the sensors go off, appropriate warnings are then sent to you, the driver, in order to help keep you and your family safe on the road. The 2018 Escape even has a system that can help you park into any tight spaces, but we'll go into that more a little later.
In addition to being one smart SUV, the 2018 Escape also features all the power you and your family will need thanks to its three-engine lineup. Drivers who wish to get the most performance out of their 2018 Escape are sure to love the 2.0L EcoBoost® engine featuring Twin-Scroll technology which maximizes horsepower and torque outputs. The 2018 Escape is also compatible with two Trailer Tow Packages, and has a max tow rating of 1,587 kilograms. Before we talk more about the 2018 Escape, let's take a look at how it compares to the 2018 Chevy Equinox.

As you can see, the 2018 Ford Escape and the 2018 Chevy Equinox are both very technologically-advanced vehicles. Both offer systems that have been designed to monitor the road in order to keep both you, and other motorists safe while driving down the highway. There were just a few areas where the 2018 Equinox wasn't able to keep up with the technology available in the 2018 Escape.
Take the Active Park Assist feature for example. Thanks to this innovative technology, your Escape will be able to actively search for parking spots that it will fit inside of, and then can even park itself. All you need to do is control the brake pedal, the accelerator, and shift the gears while your Escape does the heavy lifting. The best part about this feature? The 2018 Escape can even parallel park itself! Come on down to our dealership here in Sherwood Park to take a look at our Escape inventory.
