Urban drivers and city dwellers tend to favor more compact vehicles, such as sedans and smaller SUVs. Luckily, several Ford models can help drivers master the concrete jungle, including the Ford Focus, Ford Escape, Ford EcoSport, Ford Fusion, and Ford Transit Connect.
Ford’s Top Models for City Living
Over the last few years, Ford has made major production decisions and taken some models off the Ford lineup. The Fusion and the Focus are two vehicles Ford drivers have said goodbye to, but there are new models to replace these beloved cars. If you still want to drive a discontinued vehicle, your local dealership might have a pre-owned model in stock. Check out the specs that make each car special for urban drivers.
Ford Focus
Although the Focus is no longer in production, you’ll see in this compact car why the Focus has been so popular for so long. The Focus has always had a sporty design and engine configuration, so if you find a used Focus available, don’t miss your chance.
Ford EcoSport
Although the EcoSport was discontinued by Ford, it’s still an impressive model. This compact SUV has a sporty design and an engine designed for fuel economy. Ford’s EcoSport also has great convenience features, such as an eight-inch infotainment system.
Ford Escape
For the compact crossover SUV class, Ford is betting on the Escape being the model American drivers will love. The Escape has several engine options, including an EcoBoost engine, a hybrid engine, and a plug-in hybrid engine to make the SUV more eco-friendly. This SUV is also exceptionally roomy, with up to 65.4 cubic feet of cargo space.
Ford Fusion
The Fusion was discontinued, but remains a great vehicle with excellent fuel efficiency if you can find a used model available. With five seats and plenty of entertainment features, this model is perfect for city drivers.
Ford Transit Connect
Finally, Transit Connect is slated to be discontinued soon. It’s a great minivan option for larger families in the city. With seven seats and a fuel economy that gets 24 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway, the Transit Connect is ideal for toting around cargo for weekend adventures. The second and third rows can both fold flat for more cargo space.
Although there are many vehicles Ford is retiring, there are new models making waves, especially for eco-conscious drivers. To check out one of these new models or inquire about a recently retired Ford model, contact DARCARS Ford of Lanham in Maryland.
