Dragon 2 will have abort modes throughout the flight. The Interplanetary Transport System (aka MCT)? Nope.

Not quite true. The MCT should be able to escape as well, it will just not be able to do it as reactivly as the Dragon 2.

Definitely not as reactively, not convinced it will work as an abort, and not at all on Mars.
