The electric-assist power steering system delivers good steering response and eliminates the need for a belt-driven pump, which draws power from the engine. The revised center console features a storage compartment large enough to hide a laptop computer, a rubber-lined storage tray to keep electronic devices from sliding around. The 2008 ford escape's interior gets a major overhaul, with better quality plastics, "ice blue" dash lighting and a new "top-of-dash" information center. Ford has repositioned the parking brake lever to the driver's-side footwell, creating a new center console storage space large enough to accept a laptop computer. A thicker headliner and carpeting, as well as laminated side glass, help quiet the interior, and the escape's rear seat remains one of the roomiest in this class. Ford's standard safety canopy includes side-curtain airbags that deploy in the event of a side impact or impending rollover situation. The 2008 escape shares a strong family resemblance with ford's other truck and suv models, giving it a rugged appearance worthy of a quasi-off-road warrior. The escape's small dimensions make it easy to park and maneuver, while the large side-glass panels permit a nearly unobstructed view for both driver and passengers. Unlike more stylized crossovers, the escape's squared-off roof line creates a tall hatch opening that permits maximum cargo cramming. Standard safety features include traction control, stability control, front seat side-mounted airbags, side-curtain airbags and anti-lock brakes (abs). Of torque @ 4250 rpm epa city/highway fuel economy: 22/28 (fwd, manual).
