3 Great Family SUV Options at Your Local Ford Dealership
1. Escape
The Ford Escape is ideal for commuters and urban dwellers. Measuring just 180 inches, this compact SUV makes negotiating busy city streets and slotting into tight parking spaces a breeze. Despite its small footprint, the Escape’s interior is extremely spacious. Front passengers receive 42.4 inches of legroom while those in the rear enjoy 40.7 inches. There’s also a roomy cargo area which expands to 65.4 cubic feet with the rear seatback folded.
With a 1.5-liter EcoBoost engine and an eight-speed automatic transmission at its heart, the Escape delivers a zippy performance and agile handling, making it the perfect partner for the school run, the commute, and running local errands. The powertrain is also extremely efficient, achieving 27 mpg in the city and 34 mpg when cruising the highway.
2. Expedition
The Ford Expedition is built for larger families. Its three rows comfortably seat eight passengers and flexible seating lets you configure the interior depending on your needs. Access to the cargo area is made via Ford’s power Split Gate. This innovative gate combines the functionality of a truck tailgate with a traditional liftgate and allows you to transform the Expedition’s rear into the perfect hub for tailgating or family picnics.
Under the hood is a 400-horsepower 3.5-liter V6 which enables this beast of an SUV to tow up to 9,600 pounds, perfect for hauling everything needed for weekend getaways. And, keeping the crew entertained is easy with the Ford Digital Experience, which gives you a 13.2-inch infotainment touchscreen, a six-speaker audio system, and Wi-Fi hotspot capability.
3. Bronco Sport
If family adventures are on the cards, you need the five-seater Bronco Sport. Whether you’re on a rocky mountain trail or a sandy track, this all-wheel drive SUV has you covered thanks to its five selectable drive modes which adapt the vehicle to the surface conditions. These Goes Over Any Terrain or G.O.A.T. modes let you toggle between Sand, Sport, Eco, Normal, and Slippery depending on the environment.
Wherever your journey takes you, you’ll always be prepared with two adjustable floodlights and a handy bottle opener built into the liftgate. The practical interior is lined in easy-to-clean materials, so no matter how dirty or grubby the cabin becomes, a quick rinse and all traces of dust and mud disappear.
Whether you’re just starting a family or already have a large brood, there’s a Ford SUV to accommodate the whole family. To explore your options, drop by Fernelius Ford, Inc. in Cheboygan, MI today, and find the SUV that meets the demands of family life.
