The Ford Ecosport is the ideal companion for any activity

With its effortless maneuvrability in the city, high fuel-efficiency and secure handling on the open road, it is easy to see how Ford EcoSport, a stylish compact SUV, travels seamlessly from weekday commutes to nights on the town to weekend fun.

In the urban jungle

The energetic EcoSport is the best choice for customers for travelling both in urban and mountainous areas. Its award-winning 1.0-litre EcoBoost 125 PS petrol engine not only provides exceptional power, it is also highly fuel-efficient and environmentally responsible with low carbon emissions.

Making it to downtown, crowded streets and tight parking spaces are no problem for the EcoSport, with its easy manoeuvrability and agile handling. Lots of special features make urban driving safer and more convenient, like automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers, and rear parking distance sensors.

Nights out on the town

Everyone has a clear personal style apparent in the way they tackle new work projects with energy and confidence. It is in their clothes, favourite restaurants, and activities – and the car they drive. With EcoSport, customers can take their unique style on the road and personalise it from roof to wheel, inside and out.

Showing the true colours of customers is easy. Express their fun-loving spirit with a hue like Lightning Blue, or show the sporty style with Ruby Red. While Canyon Ridge is perfect for the wild at heart, Crystal White is the right choice if quiet elegance is more your style.

To go from day to night with ease, there are over 20 compartments that offer plenty of space to stash stuff. Extra coffee cups, shoes, glasses, and gear? No problem. A “cool box” even keeps bottled drinks refreshingly chilled while the media bin makes it easy to stay connected with friends while on-the-go, with two illuminated USB ports for easy smartphone charging and storage.

Weekend road warrior

As the weekend is coming, and EcoSport is ready to explore. Offering the rugged versatility of an SUV, plan your next trip knowing that your on-road travel companion is not only fun to drive, but also safe and reliable.

Roof racks, carriers, and tow hooks let you load up extra luggage and gear for mountain biking, surfing or trying something new. Accessories such as organisers and protectors let you conveniently pack your cargo while shielding the interior from scratches, mud, and sand (all great “souvenirs” to remember your adventure!).

Helpful driver-assist technologies (DATs) give you extra peace of mind when tackling rough terrain or bad weather. Hill start assist temporarily prevents you from rolling backwards (or forwards) when making a hill start, which is especially helpful when driving bumper-to-bumper in the city and on steep hills. The system works by applying brake pressure for an extra 2.5 seconds, giving you more time to move your foot from brake pedal to accelerator.

For more support on challenging terrain, AdvanceTrac with RSC (Roll Stability Control) automatically detects wheel-slippage, while adjusting torque and braking to gain control and traction, which supports driving on all road surfaces, including gravel, rain, and even ice and snow. Additionally, Ford’s intelligent All-Wheel Drive system (AWD) also continually monitors your driving environment and optimises traction on a variety of surfaces.
