Ecosport delivers !

I rented an Eco Sport in Arizona for two weeks. I put on 1250 miles; mostly canyon driving. It's a very competent car; performs well, comfortable, and gets great fuel mileage.

Dont buy. Lots of noise

I bought 2018 ecosport in 11/2018. After 1100 miles my brakes were squealing. Transmission shifts like old car. They fixed my brakes noise 1st time but it came back after 800 miles and took it back dealer contacted engineers and engineers said it's ok. No it's not car with 1900 miles and less than 6months should not make noise. Stay away from Ford. Dont buy it.

So far, so good!

I have owned this vehicle for 2 months, and am very happy with it! I was a little nervous about downsizing slightly from a Ford Escape to a Ford EcoSport, but it has proven to be plenty roomy for my needs. I am really impressed with all of the nice features like heated seats, moonroof, and the Sync3 system - all without a big price!

cute car; recent purchase

Purchased the car for my 18 year old; she loves it. She likes the electronics, the size of the car, all the ways the seat is adjustable. The overall appearance of the car is cute. We compared to Honda, Ford had more features for a better price.

Great car, excellent price

This is a great car, I traded in my mini cooper for the Ecosport. I am happy with it thus far. Being used to the wide tire placement on the mini, I can feel the difference in this car, so I will most likely replace the tires soon to feel a bit more stable. But otherwise its perfect. Has all the bells and whistles I was missing in the mini and really wanted.

cute and affordable

Interior front feels like an Escape. I even had someone tell me they like my new Escape. They are very similar. The only difference is smaller trunk & smaller back seat leg room.

The newest car we've owned.

This Ecosport rides very smooth, easy to handle. I love the grey color of the exterior. I like the keyless start, the ease of adjusting my seat by pushing a button.

Loving it so far!

Stylish, easy on gas, fun to drive! Lots of safety features like blind-spot notification. The only thing missing is a CD player! I love to listen to my CDs!
