You won’t have to compromise with this vehicle: its updated central entertainment and communication system and state-of-the-art safety features will give you the ride you deserve. Keep reading to learn more about why the Escape is one of our top picks for 2022.

2022 Ford Escape Key Features

What makes the 2022 Escape so great? For one thing, we’re huge fans of the SYNC 3 system, complete with numerous features and compatible apps. The voice-activated technology comes with a touchscreen, allowing you to make phone calls and play music. Even better: you can also order dinner or schedule a meeting without taking your eyes off the road.

Ford prides itself on comfort and function. The 2022 Escape gives you options for versatility. It has second-row 60/40 split-fold seats, the second row has 40.7 inches of personal space, and there’s a sliding feature available if you need more cargo space. And don’t forget the Ford Co-Pilot 360 technology: these driver-assist features will keep you confident while driving.

Engine and Handling

The 2022 escape’s power and handling give you options for the smoothest ride. A standard 2022 Escape has 17-inch Shadow Silver-painted aluminum wheels, but you can also choose from a 19-inch ebony aluminum. A standard 2022 Escape has front-wheel drive, electronic traction control, and anti-lock braking.

The 2022 Escape starts at a 181-horsepower 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine. Are you looking for even more power? You can upgrade to the 250-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder. In a zero-to-60-mph test, it scored 5.7 seconds!

Fuel Economy

If you’re looking for a fuel-efficient car, look no further than the 2022 Escape. The EPA took a look at the efficiency of Escape models. It found that the 1.5-liter three-cylinder model with front-wheel drive will give the best results: It goes 27 mpg in the city and 33 mpg in the city. That’s impressive.

What about the larger, turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder with all-wheel drive? It still boasts 26 mpg combined and over 30 mpg on the highway. But if you’re looking for the Escape with the best mileage, we recommend looking at the hybrid model. These vehicles can achieve over 40 mpg on the highway!

Safety and Security

No Ford Escape would be complete without excellent safety and security features. The standard model comes with its Safety Canopy System, its Personal Safety System with driver and front-passenger airbags, and MyKey. You’ll also have a driver’s knee airbag and the Ford’s SOS Post-Crash Alert System.
As for security features, your Escape will have a rearview camera, torque vectoring control, and its SecuriLock anti-theft system.

The 2022 Escape is one of the best options if you’re looking for a safe and efficient ride. From scheduling your appointments from the convenience of your commute to averaging over 30 mph on the highway, you can have it all with the Escape. Contact the Brinson Ford Lincoln of Athens team to learn more!
