- Driver’s sideview mirror position
- Passenger sideview mirror position
The 2021 Ford Escape makes transitions between rides as seamless as possible so you can focus on the adventure of each new day.
Ford Escape Dimensions and Capacities
In terms of design, the Escape was built to be a spacious vehicle that can provide a versatile ride. Across all of the many available Ford Escape trim levels, you’ll be able to seat up to five passengers. This is thanks to the 104 cubic feet of passenger volume that allows you to spread out in comfort while on the go.
Front | Rear | |
40 inches | Headroom | 39.3 inches |
42.4 inches | Legroom | 40.7 inches |
57.6 inches | Shoulder room | 56 inches |
55.2 inches | Hip room | 53.3 inches |
The Escape also features adequate storage room with 37.5 cubic feet of cargo volume. Using this space, you’ll be able to pack your beach gear into the back and head down to Rehoboth, Dewey, or Bethany Beach in style and comfort with your gear perfectly stowed in the back.
If you need to prioritize cargo room over seating capacity, the Ford Escape interior will accommodate with its 60/40 split-fold down second-row sliding seats. Using this functionality, you can fold down one, two, or even all three second-row seats to create up to a maximum 65.4 cubic feet of cargo volume. This will enable you to store larger items within the cabin, such as furniture for an upcoming move.
Maybe you want to take your jet skis to the shore? If so, you’ll want to learn about the available 2.0L EcoBoost® AWD (all-wheel drive) engine. Equipping your Escape with this engine will afford 3,500 pounds of towing capacity, perfect for when you run out of interior storage space.
2021 Ford Escape Infotainment & Navigation
The Ford Escape cabin also features the available SYNC® 3 system. Through the touchscreen display, you can access your favorite apps and navigation thanks to compatibility with other optional features, like Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ integration as well as Waze.
Along with that, the optional Technology Package in the 2021 Ford Escape gets a boost this year thanks to the following features:
- 12.3-inch digital screen instrument panel that keeps trip details in focus
- 10-speaker B&O Sound System by Bang & Olufsen for an immersive audio journey
- Wireless charging pad to power up your devices cord-free
The Escape also comes with the famed FordPass™ Connect System. When paired with the FordPass™ mobile app, this system will provide remote access to your Escape. You can perform such tasks as locking and unlocking your SUV through your mobile device, adding another layer of convenience to the Escape’s technology package.
Together, the tech-savvy features throughout the Ford Escape will help you stay connected, engaged, and entertained while on the move.
Active Safety on Board the Ford Escape
When you slide into the driver’s seat, you’ll have an array of active driver-assist features at your disposal. In the 2021 Ford Escape, Ford Co-Pilot360™ Assist+ will be available as it was in the 2020 model, but it now includes Intelligent Adaptive Cruise Control with Speed Sign Recognition. This convenience-enhancing system:
- Maintains a pre-set safe following distance from the vehicle ahead
- Adjusts to the flow of traffic, so you can enjoy your commute
- Keeps you informed about posted road signs even if you miss seeing them
The Escape’s helpful safety technology does not stop there. The Rear View Camera will come in handy on just about every drive you take. When you shift your Escape into Reverse, this feature will automatically kick on and provide a direct line of sight to whatever is going on behind your SUV. This will help you maneuver in and out of those tight parking spots.
The 2021 Escape comes with a number of other standard driver assistive technologies. For example, a Lane-Keeping System will help detect if you start to drift from your designated lane. Also featured:
- BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) with Cross-Traffic Alert
- Pre-Collision Assist with Automatic Emergency Braking
- Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Additionally, the Auto High-Beam Headlamps will prove extremely helpful. How many times have you been driving at night and forgotten to turn off your high beams when a vehicle approached in the oncoming lane? This feature will ensure you no longer have to worry about that, using sensors to detect oncoming traffic and automatically shutting off the high beams.
The SecuriCode™ Keyless-Entry Keypad also comes standard on the SEL trim and above in the 2021 Ford Escape. With this easy-access feature, you can open your SUV at a moment’s notice by simply entering your personal code, whether or not you have your keyring on hand.
