The new Ford Escape remains an exciting member of the Ford fleet and a popular CUV, with class-leading Ford technology features unique to the brand. The following are things we love most about the tech package in the Ford Escape in Minooka, IL.
The Epitome of Dynamic Infotainment
The latest generation of SYNC, Ford’s comprehensive infotainment system, is standard on all new Ford Escape models. SYNC interfaces with an array of other technologies, such as Alexa and Waze.
The Alexa connection lets you use Alexa as usual while you’re driving your Escape. A combined Ford + Alexa app communicates via AppLink, giving you Voice Navigation, traffic info and access to thousands upon thousands of other Skills. You can also shop Amazon Prime and, owing to a separate partnership between Ford and Amazon, have Prime in-car delivery to your Escape, thanks to Key by Amazon.
Sync and Waze connection put the ease and knowledge of the latter app at your fingertips. You get real-time info, advice, and updates from drivers who are on your route or just ahead of you as well as drivers who’ve completed your specific route previously. Waze is user-generated, so updates are as in-the-moment as it gets, treating the Waze community to moment-to-moment traffic and weather.
Sync Connect and AppLink and Wi-Fi
Sync Connect transforms your Ford Escape into a personal mobile Wi-Fi hot spot. The hot spot delivers data at 4G LTE speeds to 10 devices within a 50-foot radius. Meanwhile, AppLink lets you voice-control an array of compatible mobile apps. It also allows you to launch and continuously control mobile apps via Sync’s common sense, in-dash, touchscreen interface.
