2017 Ford Escape SE 1.5L EcoBoost® 4WD
The Tech-Forward Commuter: 179 HP of EcoBoost® Efficiency Meets Intelligent 4WD Stability and Smart-Value SE Winter Conveniences
Decoding the Build: The Practical Canadian Volume Sweet Spot
The 2017 model year marks a highly significant mid-cycle refresh for the third-generation Ford Escape, bringing a ruggedly updated exterior facade and a heavily optimized interior cockpit layout. In the competitive Canadian pre-owned landscape, the SE 4WD build represents the absolute volume sweet spot for sensible families.
Ditching the older 1.6L engine, this updated variant introduces a downsized, high-efficiency 1.5L EcoBoost® 4-cylinder powerplant. By pairing this direct-injected turbo engine with standard Intelligent All-Wheel Drive (4WD) and an array of core winter-readiness packages, this compact crossover stands out as a highly versatile, budget-friendly multi-tool engineered to handle demanding provincial seasons.
Experience Efficient Performance: 179 HP of Twin-Scroll EcoBoost® Authority
Ignite your daily metropolitan carpools, winding rural highway tracks, and icy winter morning commutes with the highly responsive 179 hp 1.5L Direct-Injected Turbocharged EcoBoost® 4-cylinder engine, the engineering heartbeat driving the 2017 Ford Escape SE. Delivering a wide, usable power band with 177 lb-ft of low-end torque starting at 2,500 rpm, this downsized turbocharged mill maximizes low-end muscle to make quick work of highway merging lanes.
Bypassing the uninspiring, elastic drone of traditional compact commuter CVTs, the Escape routes power through a smooth, durable 6-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission featuring steering-wheel paddle shifters for total driver control. Bound to an automated Intelligent 4WD system—which continuously checks road grip and shifts torque to the rear wheels before front-tire wheel-slip can even occur—this crossover features an automated Auto Start-Stop System to save fuel in heavy traffic gridlock. It secures a practical Canadian fuel economy rating of 10.7 L/100 km city and 8.3 L/100 km highway (9.6 L/100 km combined), providing a highly capable structural backbone to manage a dependable 907 kg (2,000 lbs) maximum towing capacity.
Your Intelligent Guardian: AdvanceTrac® with Roll Stability Control Protective Armor
Drive with the unwavering peace of mind that comes from Ford's rigid high-strength steel unibody frame layout and a comprehensive 7-airbag safety enclosure (including a dedicated driver's knee cushion). The 2017 SE acts as your highly vigilant co-pilot, standardizing an advanced active safety perimeter that builds an impenetrable layer of security around up to five passengers.
This tracking framework utilizes an advanced AdvanceTrac® system with Roll Stability Control™ (RSC), which automatically monitors vehicle cornering body roll to apply selective braking forces if the chassis feels unstable. Backed by standard Curve Control, Torque Vectoring Control, Hill Start Assist, a Tire Pressure Monitoring System, and a crisp, high-resolution Rear View Camera system, it tracks across wind-swept, patchy highway ice with absolute composure.
The Clever Sanctuary: A Modern SYNC® 3 Connected Winter Lounge
Step into a highly modernized, element-resistant digital sanctuary centered around a thoroughly redesigned centre console layout that replaces the older manual parking brake with a space-saving electronic switch. This configuration features a high-visibility center display screen anchored by Ford's highly acclaimed, fast-processing SYNC® multimedia hub with integrated steering wheel controls and hands-free Bluetooth® wireless voice command functionality. On equipment builds upgraded with the available SYNC® 3 package, the dashboard showcases a vibrant, smartphone-like 8-inch capacitive touchscreen interface featuring Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ smartphone integration alongside voice-activated mapping commands to keep your provincial travel paths clear without clutter.
Explicitly tailored to transform severe Canadian sub-zero mornings into a premium, comfortable experience, the upgraded SE layout treats the cockpit workspace to:
Standard Multi-Stage Heated Front Comfort Seats wrapped in high-wear, sport-textured cloth upholstery.
A standard 10-Way Power-Adjustable Driver's Seat with power lumbar adjustments to secure the perfect ergonomic driving position.
Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control allowing the driver and front passenger to lock in independent temperature blocks.
A standard SecuriCodeâ„¢ Keyless Entry Keypad built into the driver's door pillar, paired with convenient remote keyless entry.
Chiseled Edge Stance and Adaptable Fold-Flat Cargo Utility
Crucial for day-to-day Canadian lifestyle demands, the exterior includes rear privacy tint glass and heated power-adjustable body-colour side-view mirrors to clear morning frost instantly. Inside, the space-defying passenger architecture features a comfortable second-row 60/40 split fold-flat bench with a reclining backrest. Pop the rear tailgate to reveal a highly practical, flat-loading 971 litres of cargo trunk space behind the rear seating, which effortlessly expands to a cavernous 1,920 litres of maximum cargo utility when the rear benches are folded flat, easily accommodating your oversized seasonal sports gear, groceries, or large travel luggage blocks.
The Smartest Choice for the Discerning Canadian Family
The 2017 Ford Escape SE 1.5L 4WD represents the premier long-term investment for those who demand proven compact SUV value, the punchy efficiency of a direct-injected turbo engine, and the absolute security of an automated 4x4 matrix. Backed by Ford’s legendary global reputation for crossover utility, and fully outfitted with high-tier chassis stability controls, a heated multi-zone tech lounge, and specialized winter readiness, it stands as a highly reliable and sophisticated partner to handle our unique provincial landscape with total authority.
