2020 Ford Escape vs 2020 Chevy Equinox

The name says it all: EXPLORER. And it does just that - empowering adventure-seekers and active families to pack up their gear, load up the gang, and head out. When the 4-door Explorer and 2-door Explorer Sport debuted nearly 3 decades ago, these category-defining vehicles created a new way to travel. Since then, more Explorers have been sold over the last 29 years than any other SUV.

In that time, you've shared your experiences with us. And we've taken that input to heart. Your needs, wants and desires helped us craft this latest generation of the SUV that started it all. And as with those that came before it, we poured our passion, expertise and knowledge into building an Explorer that's made for you - and your family. By everyone within ours.

Designed to help improve your driving experience and handling on varying road surfaces. The five different modes are Normal, Eco, Slippery, Sport and Deep Snow/Sand. Once selected, each one of these driving modes can modify the electronic stability control system and traction control system without you having to do anything.

Keep your eyes on the road. The available head-up display creates an image on a display screen in front of the driver as they look through the windshield. This minimizes the distraction of having to look down at the car's instrument panel. The head-up display keeps you informed with various driver-assist features that include Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go, Lane-Keeping System, Navigation, incoming calls and more.

Introducing Ford Co-Pilot360™ - an advanced suite of standard driver-assist technologies that includes BLIS® with Cross Traffic Alert, Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking, Auto High-Beam Headlamps, Lane-Keeping System and Rear View Camera. Ford Escape also makes additional technology available that is designed to help keep you in command, from the driveway to the highway.

Designed to help save fuel, All-Wheel Drive Disconnect allows for the disconnection of the rear driveline when the system detects AWD is not needed. This allows only the front wheels to propel the vehicle, therefore reducing drag and the overall energy demands of the drivetrain.
