What features are offered on the 2025 Escape Hybrid?
The ST-Line Elite is the highest trim that offers a hybrid engine, and comes loaded with features. This trim focuses mainly on comfort and convenience for the driver, and front passenger. These features include heated power front seats, making sure that you’re always comfortable no matter what.
This trim also comes with a wireless charging pad, able to keep your phone charged simply by placing it down. While on the road, you are treated to adaptive cruise control. Unlike traditional cruise control, this one follows the vehicle in front of you at a set distance with lane centering helping you stay in the center without worry, making it not only safer, but more convenient.
