MOTORING

Escape design trends mirroring cars rather than trucks Escape from B1 ing with Ford’s new front end. But, within the Ford lineup itself, you can fol-

low this styling trend more directly through the Fiesta and, especially, the new Focus, mirroring both the exterior and interior treatments of the new 2013 Es-

cape. The new Escape is an inch or two longer, wider and lower. More importantly, its new shape and dimen-

sions were designed to add a little more room along with the sleeker styling, save money in fuel economy, upgrade comfort and performance, and add

a wealth of new available technologies. The combination of carried-over and new available technologies include:

• A hands-full and handsfree power liftgate that borrows X-Box motion capture technology used in today’s video ga mes. • SYNC with MyFord

Touch information control through voice commands or menus accessed through steering wheel controls, touch screens, buttons or knobs. • An active park assist system detects available parallel parking space and automatically steers the vehicle into the space. • Escape’s sensor-based BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with cross-traffic alert makes driving and parking lot maneuvering safer. • The all-new Ford Escape is the first Ford SUV to combine class-exclusive technology to automatically slow the vehicle when it’s cornering too fast (Curve Control) or help accelerate through a turn (Torque Vectoring Control). • A new Intelligent 4WD System can deliver 100 per cent of power to the front or rear wheels and helps deliver outstanding handling on pavement, in bad weather or off-road. Under the hood, the 2013 Ford Escape offers a choice of three new fourcylinder powerplants, starting with a base naturally aspirated engine and adding two turbocharged upgrades that offer enough power and fuel efficiencies to replace both the V6 and hybrid predecessors. The standard engine in Canada is an updated 2.5-litre (168 hp and 170 lb/ft), available in the entry-level S FWD trim starting at $21,499. A move up the trim level ladder premieres the first-ever 1.6-litre Ecoboost engine (178 hp and
