2018 Ford EcoSport Video Review

CARS.COM — Subcompact SUVs are a hot segment and Ford is finally joining the crowd. The 2018 EcoSport has been on sale in global markets for years and will be available in U.S. dealerships early next year.

We checked out the EcoSport at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show; watch the video for more.
