“Escape” and “sharp occasion,” are very strange name, if you do not know the history of Maverick (kuga), you’ll think this is Ford’s all-new models. In actual fact, Escape Escape is the original model, just different sales regions lead to different models named Bale. The occasion is the sharp Escape’s Chinese name, naming and sharp boundary closer. So sharp interpersonal = Escape = Maverick, Maverick sharp occasion only replacement model, but Ford wants to introduce with a new name, after all, Maverick has no longer marketable.
but in my personal opinion, there are two reasons to replace the new name, one of the two vehicles will be sold under one roof, there must be a distinction on the name; it the second is “Escape” in the name in the domestic market has been mixed stink, must be added in the form of new blood. In this case, we took advantage of the occasion of sharp chance at the Guangzhou Auto Show announced interiors, old and new models will be some comparison, look at these new shares in which new blood in the end, there is no strength save Maverick had brilliant results.
used the occasion of the appearance of sharp brand new Ford design language, but this language has been used earlier on Fox, plus sharp occasion delay We did not introduce domestic. So for domestic consumers, inter sharp design has lost its freshness.
The Changan Ford exhibited ST-Line version and the regular version of the two models, the overall shape sharp interpersonal and highly Fox Similarly, more rounded body lines, the front face of the kind of feeling panda, side comparison of full line makes me think of a Porsche.
distinguished ST-Line Edition version of the model and the general reflected only on some detail, the more general version of the model mesh grille area, and ST -Line version of the model is to use more black elements, created by the movement out of a sense of stronger.
Aspects of dimensions sharp occasion parameter has improved, the wheelbase than 2.7Alameda to 2710mm, a width of up to 1882mm.
Tires, ST-Line model scorpion verde Pirelli tires, size 225/55 R19.
the interior is also a familiar taste, steering wheel, gearshift and center console design are exactly the same with Fox, fly tiger Auto Parts City-style big screen in the control is more pleasing to the eye. Compared to the sharp occasion Escape progress is even better texture, soft material covering the center console, and be embellished with sutures. The ST-Line version is to spend a turn fur material.
Inter sharp physical buttons is small, and the full use of the large size of the liquid crystal instrument panel and the control panel, center console function control area more concise, science and technology and more strengthened.
texture are sharp inter-seat lift where, using a punching processing, leather feel even better, more filler soft, shape and color levels are more upscale.
Also worth mentioning is the ST-Line model will turn fur material use to the seat, of course, only cortical mashup not full turn fur material. Furthermore, it is moved back and forth sharp occasion of the rear seat support, seat tilt angle down after fly tiger smaller.
[123 ] Escape visually sharp and international trunk volume comparable, but the sharp functional strengthened international, hierarchical trunk cover height can be adjusted, but also increases the “one-click” (handle) down rear seats Features.
the scene of the two show cars are equipped with a large panoramic sunroof, andIt has been a black roof treatment.
compared to the Escape, there are some inter-sharp “backward” in. Such as storage space, the storage capacity of the sharp decline in inter-front and back doors of the door, the back door and even door design is wonderful, cup holder greatly tilted forward, that can not be placed no caps in this cup, otherwise there may result in side leakage.
Inter sharp rear platform raised higher height, seat cushion length is not long enough, and the rear head space remaining not many, upright seated when hair has been swept to the roof.
two show cars are equipped with a 2.0T engine, maximum net power 180Kw (about 245 horsepower), Transmission side with Fox Like matched 8AT gearbox. Also late or sharp occasion to launch a three-cylinder engine 1.5T models.
chassis structure, independent suspension McPherson sharp inter compositions continue + multi-link independent suspension.
Written in the last:
to evaluate the overall performance from the sharp inter-fly tiger undoubtedly better, but it should be, which is the replacement model some improvement. Go back to the issue of sales of the two vehicles under one roof, sharp occasion to consider other brands of the same level models bring competition. On the current experience point of view, although there is no sharp occasion very good place, but not a fatal point, can finally complete the new blood of the mission, we will have to see the price, configuration.
