2018 Ford EcoSport consumer reviews

We have a Titanium model as a rental for a couple of weeks, and find ourselves thoroughly disappointed. The interior is pleasant enough, other than no where to stow a phone where the screen is visible (necessary if you prefer Waze for navigation), and the narrow seat cushions (and we are not stereotypical 300lb Americans). The infotainment system is a study in frustration, while the car seems to gleefully ignore any attempts to reconfigure base settings, including turning off the intrusive automatic stop-start system. The exterior design is in the currently fashionable cute chunky SUV idiom, but it's easy to lose in a car park. Performance is disappointing, with only 26mpg, and acceleration that seems to be generated by a wheezing hamster. Don't care about driving, want to sit high, and have an easy-to-park vehicle for town use? It's fine. Anything more than that, don't even bother.

I had the Ford ECoSport Titanium with 18 miles on it for 4 days on a business trip. Styling is well ?Blah?. Performance is lack luster at best with the tiny little 1 liter, 3 cylinder turbo motor. Sorry my Harley Davison has a larger motor. The whole ECOBOOST IS BS! At 25 mpg highway its not eco and there was no boost in performance. More of a bust. My average travel suitcase consumed most the storage area. I?m only 5? 9? so in a comfortable seating position my laptop bag barely slid between the back of the driver seat and rear seat. Even a child would be hard pressed for any legroom. Visibility is another issue or the lack of any. On the good side, the seats were comfortable and Ford has made great improvements in their interface with phones or media devices. The backup camera was good and I like the 3D visual proximity for your surroundings.

I love my new Ford Ecosport!!! I think it is perfect for travelling, shopping and just driving around. It has plenty of cargo space for me. The seats are so comfortable and easy to adjust. Great gas mileage and it looks sleek. The back opens to the side instead of up which can sometimes be a challenge to close for those of us who are height challenged!

The EcoSport might look cute, but it's not the best ride. The ride is rough, especially at high speeds. The engine seems to struggle a lot. If you live in a condensed city where parallel parking is inevitable, the trunk door might be an issue, as it opens sideways. The A/C is pretty weak and I've been experiencing some motion sickness whenever I use it, something that has never happened in the past.

This is my very first brand new car under lease and I am so thankful I was able to get it thanks to the Ford Dealership in Appleton, WI. Thank you so much Mike Coulthard and Mike Moore. I will definitely go back to them and recomend them to everyone I know.

The Ecosport is just my size, runs great, and is very manageable. i downsized from the Escape and find it to be just as roomy and comfortable.

Totally fell in LOVE as soon as I saw it, has more than I expected. Can't say enough about it. so far every one loves it, posted new ride on my face book.

The Ford EcoSport definitely meets all of my needs as a college students with 3 jobs. I am constantly on the move whether it?s driving to one of my jobs, school, extracurricular activities, the shore, etc. The EcoSport has plenty of room for me to pack and bring what I need for my car rides, and even has room for several passengers to come along with me. I am so happy with my purchase and absolutely love my Ford EcoSport!

This car is perfect fit for me. Plenty of room in front. A little cramped in back if front seats pushed back, but I rarely have more than one passenger. The back seats lay flat for hauling things, and I especially love the back tailgate door. Easier for me to open than having to raise it up above my head. It handles wonderful, great pick up, turns easily. I put mostly highway miles on and am getting 30-31mpg.

As someone who's never owned a new car, I havent really experienced being so excited to have a car- all I want to do is drive it! The car is cool, practical and user friendly. The bluetooth makes listening to music as easy as just getting inside and starting the engine. I absolutely love this car and everything about it!
