2018 EcoSport: Exterior Features

The excitement you'll find in the 2018 EcoSport starts with the exterior. Its chic outer styling is enhanced by a slate of vibrant paint colors like charged Lightning Blue, brilliant Race Red, and orange Canyon Ridge. With colors like that, you'll have no problem standing out from the pack.

Available LED signature lighting and halogen projector headlamps help you make a statement out on the road. The signature lights look sleek and announce your presence to other drivers while the projectors bathe the road ahead with light so that you can see where you're going-and anything that might be in your way.

One of our favorite features is the unique swing-gate rear hatch. It swings out to the side rather than up and includes a hideaway latch built into the passenger-side taillamp. Open it to reveal up to 50 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats folded-perfect for all your adventure gear!

Ford EcoSport Crossover SUV Performance Specs

There are two engines available in the Ford EcoSport. A 1.0L EcoBoost® 3-cylinder engine puts out 123 horsepower and 125 lb-ft of torque, delivering solid acceleration for your around-town driving. If you often find yourself out on the highway, however, you may want the optional 2.0L 4-cylinder engine which can produce up to 166 horsepower and 149 lb-ft of torque.

The EcoSport is impressively practical for such a small vehicle. It can tow up to 1,400 pounds with the base 3-cylinder engine, and that capacity grows to 2,000 pounds with the optional 4-cylinder engine. That'll give you plenty of options for some weekend fun at your favorite getaway destinations. Hitch up your ATV or jet ski and hit the road!

Interior Features: Cabin Amenities

No matter where your next adventure takes you, you'll be well pampered inside the 2018 EcoSport. You can opt for the available partial leather-trimmed seating, perforated for breathability on hot days. Plus, with 36.7 inches of legroom in the rear, backseat passengers will have plenty of room to spread out.

With two fast-charging USB ports on the center console, it's easy to keep your favorite devices energized for the road ahead. If you opt for the available SYNC® Connect, you'll get a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot which can connect up to 10 devices at once. This way, you can stay connected wherever the road takes you!
