The Ford family of SUVs have a number of similarities to them: they’re all safe, they’re all great for families, and they’re all styled to appeal to the driver, the passengers, and the people on the street. But it’s the differences between them that will help you settle on a final decision for you, your family, or your business. If you’re currently having a hard time knowing where to even start, keep these tips in mind to choose between the Expedition, the Escape, the Flex, the Edge, the Ecosport or the Explorer.
The Biggest
If you’re looking for lots of space plus extreme towing capacity, then the Expedition is the SUV for you. This SUV features the ability to tow 9,200 pounds, which should be enough for even the busiest of haulers. There’s also plenty of interior space for you, the family, and practically everything you’d want to take with you in the vehicle.
The Most Environmentally Friendly
Unsurprisingly, you’re looking at the Ecosport, which will be available in early 2018. This vehicle may look small, but it has a surprising amount of room inside. The driver will see about 52 miles to the gallon, which should give wallets everywhere a bit of a break. It’s smaller frame and sleek styling means it’s incredibly nimble when on the road, allowing you to effortlessly zip and flit through lanes.
The Most Versatile
The Explorer is known for allowing its drivers to seamlessly go from the deepest backwoods to the grocery store parking lot without a lot of fuss. This SUV has a Terrain Management System, so your wheels (and engine) aren’t getting a work-out unless they’re about to kick up some serious dust.
The Classiest
If you’re looking for something a little more sporty, then it’s time to test drive the Ford Edge. Known for its style and sport, the cabin has a sophisticated design that doesn’t skimp on the details. Luxury and technology meet in the middle to give the driver convenience, entertainment, and fun. Features a 2.7L EcoBoost® V6 engine on all sport models.
The Most Practical
The Ford Flex is excellent for people who have their eye on the Expedition for its towing capacity, but may not need as large. The Flex can still haul 4,500 pounds, and features plenty of interior room to spare. This car has all-wheel drive, and advanced stability control to keep all four wheels on the ground in even the most harrowing of situations.
The Most Convenient
The Ford Escape has a lot to offer in the way of busy families trying to get around even busier cities. The entertainment features inside are extremely user friendly, as are the safety features to keep everyone in one piece. Both hands full of groceries? Just use your foot to swipe under the trunk to get it to pop open. Turbocharged engine makes it simple to get around on even the steeper grade hills.
