25 May 2018

Surprisingly, the car became cheaper

Ford dealers have started taking orders for the new EcoSport crossover. Now the car will cost from 959 000 rubles. It turns out that he fell by 13 000. But at what cost these savings were obtained?

Now basic equipment of "Ekosport" will be the elegance. It already has two airbags, electronic stability, power Windows and audio preparation, so technically this design cannot be called naked. However, the car had lost air conditioning and audio systems, without which it is very difficult to call a car for a million full.

These missing system available in the next release Trend for 1 019 000. The performance Trend Plus additionally boasts of climate control, heating front seats, steering wheel and windshield, fog lights and 16-inch alloy wheels (in the version easier — "stamping" of the same size).

A more rich version for Titanium for 1 209 000 received seven airbags, an advanced entertainment system, cruise control and light sensors and rain. And privileges of top-performance Titanium Plus (from 1 259 000 rubles) will be combined upholstery with leather and fabric, Parktronic, rear view camera, remote Keyless entry and engine start button. Thus for xenon headlamps, a larger display (8 inches instead of 6.5) and navigation system will still have to pay separately.

Now, about technique. The base engine for the Ford EcoSport will be a new three-cylinder engine capacity of 1.5 liters. Differences from the 1.6-liter "Quartet", which was proposed earlier is not too obvious. Capacity increased by only one "horse" (from 122 to 123), and the maximum torque was increased to 3 N·m (151 vs 148).

Two-liter "aspirated" family Duratec remained in place but was modified. He has got direct fuel injection and increased to 12:1 compression ratio. It is noteworthy that even with such a high value allows the manufacturer to fill the crossover gasoline AI-92. Listed Metamorfosi possible to increase the recoil with 140 horsepower and 186 N·m up to 148 HP and 194 nm.

Another news — the rejection of "robot" PowerShift. He was replaced by a traditional six-speed "automatic". Drive still can be front or full.

During the upgrade of the Ford EcoSport has changed, inside and out. Visually fresh model is new headlights and bumpers. The interior here is like from a completely different model: the designers completely reworked the front panel. Now the interior resembles the new generation Ford Fiesta (formerly the interior was largely borrowed from the old Fiesta).
