The Advantages Of The 2009 Ford Escape
The 2009 Ford escape is a major redesign of the popular range of SUV models from Ford. Boasting ease of use, an abundance of features and a high quality build with an exceptional safety record, this is a very respectable latest version of the popular range.
The Ford escape from 2009 boasts a 2. 5 l four cylinder engine, replace and a 2. 3 l engine which came in last year’s version of the model. It also has exceptionally high reliability and safety standards, which of course for a family car a very important. And you won’t be disappointed by the performance either as it has been vastly improved over previous models.
The four speed automatic transmission which was used in last year’s version of the model has also been replaced with a standard five speed transmission and there is also a six speed transmission available. With optimised gear ratios, the performance is somewhat enhanced as well.
The car also comes of more optimised gear ratios, allowing for five speed transmission though an optional six by transmission is also available should you wish to get it as an extra. It also consumes about 10 per cent less fuel than the predecessor, making it especially practical and relatively cheap to run. This is something that Ford has often managed a perfect over time.
The interior has also undergone somewhat of a redesign, having been upgraded somewhat from 2008 versions of a model. It has a two tiered instrument panel which is fully featured and very easy to use. Adding to ease of use, it also has some blue and green instrument lighting which is reliable and effective when used in the car and night.
You can easily fold the rear seats backwards allowing for more storage space, making this car highly versatile and useable and all sorts of different scenarios. The result and when folding back the rear seats gives you 66 cubic feet of storage space, especially useful if you are moving house and wanting to do some of the movement with your own car.
The car is also very comfortable, making it ideally suited to those long distance journeys for touring around the country with your family. There are plenty of extra features included, including an impressive in car entertainment system which comes as standard.
With an exceptional safety record, it should be easier and cheaper to insure than many other competing models, and the top on the lists of reliability and performance, it is unlikely will be disappointed.
