2019 Ford EcoSport Model Review - Dalton, GA

If you’re looking for a compact SUV with all the bells and whistles, then stop the hunt. The 2019 Ford EcoSport is the SUV for you. The perfect partner to any city-goer’s commute, the EcoSport was designed for small spaces and quick turns. Check out more about the 2019 Ford EcoSport’s features below.

Engine, Performance, & Fuel Economy

The new EcoSport has two standard engine options: the 123-hp turbocharged 3-cylinder and the 166-hp four-cylinder engine. Both engine options come equipped with a six-speed transmission, helping Ford’s compact SUV stay nimble around turns and graceful in stop and go traffic. Because of its small size, maneuverability is fantastic for quick lane shifts in heavy traffic and for parallel parking on tight streets. Its size doesn’t limit it much: the 4-cylinder has a tow capacity up to 2,000 lbs.

The smart suspension system keeps passengers from bouncing around, and the EcoSport is situated higher off the ground than most of its rivals, making ground clearance of potholes, speed bumps, and other road obstacles better than the competition. The EcoSport also gets great fuel economy, offering 28 mpg/hwy for the 3-cylinder and 30 for the 4-cylinder.

Interior & Tech Features

While the exterior and engine options on the EcoSport are great, what really stands out on this compact SUV is the technology. Depending on which trim you choose, the EcoSport offers three different infotainment levels, starting with a base display and moving up to a 6.4-inch touchscreen or an 8-inch touchscreen. The infotainment systems come with either the Sync 3 system or the FordPass Connect with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot, and Alexa and Waze integration. The EcoSport’s infotainment system options also come equipped with multiple smart-charging USB ports.

Imagine heating up your car on a cold winter day without ever having to leave the house. With the EcoSport’s technology and FordPass Connect, drivers can start, heat up or cool off, and stop their vehicle remotely right from their smartphone. FordPass Connect members can also get roadside assistance, check tire pressure and mileage, schedule maintenance or service, and more right from the convenience of an app.

If you’re looking for passenger comfort and conveniences, the EcoSport offers heated front bucket seats, a power moonroof with sunshade, a 10-speaker B&O sound system, and some of the best cargo space for its class.

When it comes to safety, the EcoSport doesn’t disappoint. With automatic halogen headlights, rain-sensing wipers, a blind-spot monitoring system, auto start-stop technology, and hill start assist, the EcoSport is a perfect partner to city traffic and hill parking.
