While I was in L.A. last month, I was able to get a sneak peek at the newest offerings from Ford. If you have been thinking about getting a new Ford or Lincoln, you might want to hold off until these two are released! Below I included just a short summary of what you can expect from these vehicles. See more info on the 2017 Ford Escape and 2017 Lincoln MKZ.
2017 Ford Escape Reveal in Hollywood, CA
The 2017 Ford Escape is sporting a new grill, six wheel designs, and a slew of features inside. Consumers can choose from two new EcoBoost® engines and it will include SYNC® Connect. This will allows owners to unlock and lock their doors, start engine, and even locate vehicle through the smartphone app. Adaptive cruise control and Auto Start-Stop are additional features new to this model.
The 2017 Ford Escape will be available Spring 2016. Learn more about this vehicle here.
2017 Lincoln MKZ Reveal in Los Angeles, CA
The 2017 has a more modern look, a panoramic roof that goes way back, 14- or 20-speaker Revel audio, smart chargers, and tactile controls which replace the sliding bars that looked cool but weren’t as easy to work with. A 3.0L 400-horsepower engine will be available, meaning serious power will be humming under that luxurious hood, as well as a 2.0L hybrid model.
Summer 2016 is the slated release for the 2017 Lincoln MKZ. Learn more about the 2017 Lincoln MKZ here.
Which of these cars are you most looking forward to being released?
I was invited to attend a media event with travel expenses covered. All opinions are my own.
