All 2026 Ford Escape trims come standard with essentials like AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control, anti-lock brakes, traction control, and a full complement of airbags including side-impact and Safety Canopy side-curtain airbags. You'll also benefit from smart driver assistance features on every Escape, such as the Lane-Keeping System, BLIS (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert, Auto High-Beam Headlamps, and Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking. Rear parking sensors and the Rear View Camera make low-speed maneuvering and backing up safer and easier.
Step up to the Escape Platinum, ST-Line Select or ST-Line Elite, and you get even more confidence-inspiring safety tech. Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop-and-Go maintains a set distance from the car ahead, even in slow traffic. Available Evasion Assist can help avoid a collision by providing steering support. The available 360-Degree Camera with Split-View gives you a bird's-eye view around the vehicle to navigate tight spaces. Front parking sensors and Reverse Brake Assist are also available for enhanced low-speed safety.
Built on a sturdy foundation, the Escape's body structure is designed to absorb and redirect crash forces away from the passenger compartment. Combined with its many active safety features to help avoid accidents in the first place, the 2026 Ford Escape wraps you in protection on all your journeys.
