My Mazda has that. There's a towing ring that threads in, so a tow cable can be hooked up. I suspect it's just towing, not necessarily recovery.

James Bond machinegun cutout. American super spies just hang out the window to shoot. The British are more sophisticated, so they devised a method that allows them to fire at bad guys while still sipping on a cuppa.
Is there a port on the back end to spray oil on the road? :sunglasses:

Is it part of the safe and smart package? I think it's standard in Europe, if I'm not mistaken

Any car shipped overseas has this access point for a tie down hook.

Tow hook, its a requirement in Europe. Most European car that ship to NA have them as left in. Frankly its a good idea i don't understand why ford doesn't leave them in for NA.

Dude, that’s the Spy Hunter edition for 2021; bean counters wouldn’t allow both options in a single year given all the 2020 changes already announced...

My wifes 13 escape had it, but it was also built off of the kuga which debuted years earlier and the kuga is the UK version of the escape. But yes it is for a tow hook, like someone else said it is a requirement over there. The 12 + focus has them too but they are hidden behind the bumper cover.
