The 2021 Ford Bronco is coming soon to your Phoenix AZ Ford dealer, and it is already laying down a big challenge to the Jeep Wrangler. Ford’s all new ride promises to do everything the Wrangler does and do it better. Here’s what Phoenix area drivers need to know now, and what they can look forward to in the future. more New Bronco is an Open Air Ride New Broncos will have an open air concept. Windows and doors can be taken away to create that dune buggy feel that until now you could only get from a Wrangler. The rivals come in both two-door and four-door configurations. While Jeep configurations basically build upon one another, Ford is taking a new tactic where the Bronco’s different trims represent truly different capabilities, appealing to different types of adventure seekers. Both are off-roaders with standard and available equipment that brings adventure closer to Phoenix area drivers. The Wrangler’s standard engine is a 280-horsepower that produces 265 pound-feet of torque. Ford’s Ecoboost engine produces 270 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque. You will notice that the EcoBoost engine provides greater torque, which allows for more get-up-and-go whether you are in traffic or on the trail. What’s more, Ford has learned from experience with its F150 how to lighten up the load. At this point, differences become clearer. An Ecoboost engine means that the Bronco has much better gas mileage. Furthermore, the Bronco has GOAT, a clever name for an even cleverer terrain management system. This allows it to go head to head with the Wrangler in many more situations and come out first. For those who want more power, the Bronco offers an excellent 2.7-liter twin-turbo six. This EcoBoost V-6 creates 310 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque for superior take-offs on the highway and excellent crawl capability on the trail. Find Your Bronco You can make a reservation now for the Bronco which is due June 2021 at your Phoenix AZ Ford dealer. The Bronco Sport, a smaller 4x4 with its own trail credentials, arrives December 2020. Whether you are an adventure lover, an off-road fanatic, or a driving enthusiast, these Broncos are here to take a stand against the old guard.

The all-new and classy 2020 Ford Escape arrived at the US dealerships in autumn of 2019. It leverages on Ford's new modular architecture and is clad in new sheet metal that's a far cry from the Escape it's replacing. With a reconfigured platform, eco-conscious powertrain options, and a raft of smart features, Ford's latest Escape is a fun ride to drive for your family's next breath-taking adventure. more 4 New & Innovative Features of the 2020 Ford Escape Sliding Second-Row Seats Ford's revamped 5-seater Escape SUV is not only pleasing to the eye but also practical. It shares the same platform with the restyled 2019 Ford Focus that's available in other global markets. All the Escape's non-hybrid variants have sliding second-row seats with up to 40.7 inches of legroom. Shifting the second-row seats to a full-forward position allows for a staggering 37.5 cubic feet of cargo volume in the trunk. Furthermore, the maximum cargo capacity rises from 37.5 cu-ft to 65.4 cu-ft when the second-row seats are folded downward. Ostensibly, none of these cargo figures is considered best-in-class. However, it places the Escape in a better position to compete with the Forester and CR-V in this segment. Engine Options Ford has furnished its 2020 Escape with three energetic powertrain options. These include a hybrid, a plug-in hybrid, and two gasoline engines. SE Sport and Titanium trims use a 2.5L four-cylinder Atkinson-cycle hybrid drivetrain and electronic CVT. This hybrid engine produces an impressive 198-hp and 153-lb-ft of torque. It can hit 85 mph in electric-only mode. The plug-in hybrid option retains the same torque but raises the horsepower to 209, with an estimated EPA of at least 30 miles in electric-only mode. The redesigned Escape also comes with two gas engines. The first one is a 1.5-liter EcoBoost that generates 180 horsepower, while the second one is a 2.0-liter EcoBoost that's good for 250 horsepower. With these new engine options, the 2020 Escape is sure to meet the needs of every buyer. Drive Modes & Handling The latest Escape SUV offers customizable drive modes for smooth handling on multiple road situations. It features five different drive modes, including Normal, Eco/Green, Sport, Slippery, and Deep Snow/Sand. With the upgraded Ford Escape, you're unlikely to lose control in any driving condition. Better still, Ford engineers seem to have burnt the midnight oil to cater for situations where AWD is unnecessary for a smooth drive. The overhauled Escape comes with an AWD Disconnect assist, which helps disconnect the rear driveline and utilize the front wheels to propel the SUV. This enables you to reduce energy consumption. Technology Ford's revamped Escape avails a broad range of intelligent technologies to make each ride more customizable for drivers and safer for passengers. You'll find the Ford Co-Pilot360™ safety features adapted into each Escape model. The Co-Pilot360™ consists of Active Park Assist 2.0, Evasive Steering Assist, Reverse Sensing System, and BLIS® with Cross-Traffic Alert. The Titanium variant also comes as standard with a new head-up display. Any useful info is projected on a 6-inch screen to help you keep your eyes on the road. SE trims and above are equipped with an 8-inch touch-screen display for SYNC® 3 infotainment system. It supports Android Auto™, Apple CarPlay™, and Waze Navigation.
