Before deciding on your next midsize SUV, it helps to get a stronger sense of its safety and security. The 2020 Ford Escape safety features offer comprehensive protection to you and your passengers with its advanced braking systems, passive safety features, and driver-assisting technology.

At Richmond Ford Lincoln, we're here to showcase the Escape safety features for our friends in Richmond, Mechanicsville, and Ashland. By reading our extensive safety review, drivers can further understand how the Escape keeps its passengers protected during their daily drives. Let's get started!

2020 Ford Escape Active Safety Features

The 2020 Escape incorporates several features with its performance system to ensure you have total control during slippery conditions and emergency situations. These features are in place to give you extra braking assistance for when you need it:

• AdvanceTrac® with RSC® (Roll Stability Control™) is a traction and stability control system that senses when there's an instance of wheel slip. It'll then provide the necessary brake pressure to the affected wheels while reducing the engine speed to ensure that the vehicle regains traction.
• Torque Vectoring Control ensures that the proper amount of torque is dispersed to the wheels while facing a tight curve or a sharp turn.

Ford Escape Passive Safety Features

The Escape features an assortment of passive safety features to ensure that you and your passengers remain protected at all times in the event of a collision. There's also a Belt-Minder® system for the front and second row to remind passengers to buckle their seatbelts. The Escape includes:

• Personal Safety System™ with dual-stage driver and front-passenger airbags
• Safety Canopy® System
• SOS Post-Crash Alert System™

Ford Co-Pilot360™ Technology

The 2020 Ford Escape comes standard with Ford Co-Pilot360™, a suite of smart safety systems. These features work with exterior-mounted sensors that measure the speed of the vehicle and the distance from the object ahead to predict a possible collision or detect an approaching vehicle.

These features include:

• Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking: This system detects an imminent collision and warns you while providing slight brake pressure to reduce the force of impact and to give you a chance to react.
• Lane-Keeping System: It can sense when the vehicle is drifting from its intended lane. Then, it'll warn you and use selective braking to ensure that the vehicle stays on its path.
• BLIS® with Cross-Traffic Alert: The Blind Spot Information System can sense a vehicle approaching your blind spot zone. It'll provide you with a warning that will go away when the coast is clear to change lanes.
