Its EcoBoost 2.0L I4 engine paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission delivers responsive performance, while the Atlas Blue Metallic exterior and Ebony interior provide a modern, upscale look. As a non-smoker owner vehicle, it appeals to those who value a clean, well-cared-for cabin environment.
