Ford Ecosport Trend

Instead of going with the erstwhile conventional decision of going with a large hatchback as a first car, I deliberately experimented by making a decision of going with an entry level compact SUV in the form of Ford Ecosport. Ford has done a tremendous job in bringing a revolution with the Ecosport, as with this car, I was able to get a taste of what an SUV feels like at much affordable price. I have always heard a lot about Fords that they are generally fantastic to drive and provide great experience behind the steering wheel. And the Ecosport doesn’t fail on those expectations, and despite having a high ground clearance and relatively small wheelbase, it still feels planted on tarmac. However, the only negative aspect of this car is a cramped rear seat space, which makes the Ecosport a four seater, if you take in the comfort aspect.

There are a few cars that become long-term companions to you and the Ford Ecosport is one of them. I have owned a diesel variant for over 4 years now and I feel like it is the best buy I have made till date. After driving it on the most difficult and rickety routes for long time periods, I have found it powerful, sturdy and economical at the same time. If I measure the cost of owning the car, running and maintaining it; it stands strong on all grounds.The thing that I love the most in this car is its ground clearance which will make all bad roads also seem like an easy to drive experience for you. Boot space is sufficient enough to keep your family luggage and it is a great option to take on the weekend road trips! The Infotainment touchscreen comes with a smooth response and has 4 speakers and 2 tweeters which makes this car a winner in my opinion!

I guess not many can deny that the Ford Ecosport is probably the best option to go with if someone has a low budget but still wants a stylish SUV. I have always liked the car since it was first launched and had a chance to drive it after my friend bought a new one. The look on the outside and the feel on the inside is just unimaginable awesome and for a car at that price, nothing else could be asked for. I recently got mine, a funky bright yellow Titanium Ecosport with 16-inch wheels and just can’t get enough of it. I like the power provided by the 1.5-litre engine and the automatic transmission works just great. On paper, the 112 PS power and 140 Nm is not too bad for a car of that caliber.

We bought the Ford Ecosport in 2016. Our family had become bigger and we wanted a big SUV like car. The EcoSport is a bit compact for sure but we intend to buy a full-size car later on when our children get bigger. When we went to look for our new car, the styling of the EcoSport really hooked us in. We also liked the interior quality and the equipment. The speakers are outstanding. It is also very economical for us. We would have like it to be a little less expensive though. The steering could also be a little lighter. Very less noise comes inside the cabin from the outside, but the engine itself is noisy. The tires can also be heard from inside. But still, I would say that it is a comfortable car with a lot of well-thought touches. At least until we decide to buy a new car.
