Expected to go on sale at Joe Myers Ford this spring, the 2017 Ford Escape is not only good looking and fuel efficient, but it also offers new technology that is meant to make your life easier.

The Ford Escape will be the first Ford vehicle to come equipped with all-new SYNC Connect technology. This will offer easy-to-use features, like remote start and door locking through the FordPass platform. The small-sized SUV will also be first to offer SYNC 3 featuring Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

If you’re unfamiliar with SYNC technology, here are some key highlights:
- Listen to music and make a phone call with voice commands.
- Automatic phone book downloading.
- Makes searching for music easy.
SYNC 3 technology gives you all of those amenities, plus these conveniences:
- High-speed performance
- Capacitive touch screen
- Enhanced voice recognition
- Easy destination entry
- Siri seamless integration
- Automatic updates over Wi-Fi
This kind of driver-assist technology, not only simplifies driving, but it also help you stay safe behind the wheel. Think about it, if you’re not having to worry about using your hands to make calls or change the radio, you’re more likely to keep your attention on the road; therefore, you’re better able to avoid potential roads hazards because you’re more focused on driving.
Aside from these functionality improvements, the 2017 Ford Escape is expected to be better than ever, with its new design and enhanced features.
New sideview mirrors, updated wheel designs and eye-catching LED taillamps and halogen projector headlamps are just some of the many improvements to the new Escape.
The brand-new Escape really has something for everyone. No matter if you do most of your driving in the city or in the country, this vehicle makes parking problems a thing of the past. Its available active park assist technology tackles parallel AND perpendicular parking jobs with ease.
