Stepping into the driver’s seat feels like a seamless extension of your smartphone, allowing you to focus on the road while staying perfectly synced with your digital world.
13.2-Inch Touchscreen with SYNC 4 Technology

One of the most impressive features is the large 13.2-inch centre touchscreen display powered by SYNC 4 with enhanced voice recognition. This system allows drivers to control navigation, entertainment, and vehicle settings with simple voice commands or touch inputs. The screen provides a clear and responsive interface that keeps important information easy to access while driving.

Ford Co Pilot360 Driver Assistance

Safety is a major focus. The SUV includes Ford Co Pilot360 technology, which offers a range of driver assistance systems designed to improve awareness and help prevent accidents. Key systems include BLIS Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Alert, Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop and Go, and Lane Centring Assist. These features help monitor surrounding traffic and assist with steering and speed adjustments during highway driving.
Advanced Camera and Safety Monitoring
The 2026 Ford Escape also includes an available 360 degree camera system, which provides a bird’s eye view of the vehicle when moving at low speeds.
