Ford EcoSport for Sale

Edmunds' Expert Review

by Cameron Rogers

Pros

Above-average cargo space for the class
All-wheel drive can be ordered at every trim level
Widespread availability of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
Sync 3 infotainment interface is fast and easy to use

Cons

Aside from blind-spot monitoring, advanced safety aids aren't available
Below-average fuel economy
Base engine might struggle while carrying passengers and cargo
Choppy, jittery ride on most road surfaces

What's new

A few formerly optional features are standard this year
Part of the first EcoSport generation introduced for 2018

With a name like EcoSport, you might assume Ford's newest crossover offers a high-octane driving experience with an eye toward efficiency. In reality, it doesn't deliver on either front. Fuel economy is just so-so, and acceleration doesn't reach the modest bar set by the rest of the class. But a large, flexible cargo area and an intuitive technology interface make the 2019 Ford EcoSport a viable choice for shoppers.

Even though the Ford EcoSport's been on sale in other countries for the better part of a decade, its interior feels remarkably new. The cabin design is similar to what you'll find in other small Fords, and the materials quality is appropriate for the price. Four adults should fit without issue — provided they aren't exceptionally tall — and the cargo area is one of the largest in the class. We also like the Sync 3 infotainment system. With an intuitive interface and quick reactions to user inputs, we think it's one of the best systems out there.

That isn't to say the EcoSport is without faults. Aside from the slow acceleration and middling fuel economy, the ride is rougher compared to rivals, the throttle is jumpy, and thick pillars impact outward visibility. And while the touchscreen interface is better than most, the lack of advanced driving aids might deter some tech-savvy shoppers.

In a broader sense, the EcoSport doesn't offer anything unique. Buyers looking for a fun-to-drive crossover might consider the Mazda CX-3 or the Toyota C-HR. The Honda HR-V has more passenger and cargo space, while the Subaru Crosstrek and the Jeep Renegade both offer rugged off-road ability.

Edmunds' Expert Rating

6.8 / 10

Trim tested

Each vehicle typically comes in multiple versions that are fundamentally similar. The ratings in this review are based on our full test of the Ford EcoSport Titanium (turbo 1.0-liter inline-3 | 6-speed automatic | FWD), with additional impressions of a Ford EcoSport SES (2.0-liter inline-4 | 6-speed automatic | AWD).

Scorecard

Overall	6.8 / 10
Driving	6.0
Comfort	7.0
Interior	7.0
Utility	7.0
Technology	7.0

Driving

6.0

A short wheelbase makes for sharp handling that would benefit from better tires, but there's no helping the underpowered engine. This car is just slow and its sluggish transmission doesn't help. The brakes are good, but otherwise it's a well-balanced subcompact lacking muscle.

Acceleration

5.0

There isn't much. Unless the three-cylinder engine's turbochargers are spooled up and ready for action, it requires a Herculean effort to bring the EcoSport to highway speeds. In Edmunds testing, it required 11.4 seconds to reach 60 mph from a stop, one of the most leisurely paces in this segment. Selecting the 2.0-liter/AWD combo shaves a full second off the 0-60 mph time.

Braking

7.0

There's a delay between the application of the brake pedal and the car slowing in earnest. Firm pressure is required for stopping power, but slowing is smooth and stable. No pulling or drama in emergency stops. It stopped from 60 mph in 124 feet — just shy of average for the class.

Steering

6.0

The steering feels fairly accurate in direction and offers confidence that the car will go where the wheel commands it. But the steering feel is abysmal; it's as though the steering wheel is connected to the tires with only a large rubber band. It's a strange sensation that's hard to get accustomed to.

Handling

6.5

Despite the EcoSport's top-heavy looks, body roll isn't severe. You can whip the EcoSport into curves with some confidence if you're mindful of the car's front-weight bias. (The rear end likes to wiggle when driven hard.) Grippier tires would reclaim a measure of sport, but this is not a car for spirited driving.

Drivability

5.5

It feels frenetic and over-caffeinated in dense urban traffic. The transmission is indecisive about whether it needs to save fuel or deliver quick acceleration, yet it's not particularly good at either. Long intervals between gear changes means the EcoSport tends to bog down during upshifts.

Comfort

7.0

The supportive seats, a relatively quiet engine, and strong climate control hit the essential points for a comfortable cabin. But backseat passengers may not be as enthused. Ride quality suffers in the pursuit of sporty handling, yielding a choppy, jostling ride on all but the smoothest pavement.

Seat comfort

6.5

The unobtrusive side bolsters offer easy entry and exit, and they still manage to secure front passengers in fast turns. The seat bottoms are firm and comfy, but the seatbacks feel flat as boards. The rear seats are flat, shapeless and utilitarian. The combination of power seat adjustments and manual lumbar controls is clumsy.

Ride comfort

6.0

The EcoSport delivers a choppy, bumpy ride on most road surfaces. It won't rattle your teeth, but this car lacks the refined damping of a competitor such as the Mazda CX-3. It handles road undulations well, but it gets bounced around by the sharper impacts of bad, rashy pavement.

Noise & vibration

7.5

The three-cylinder's small-engine snarl makes its way into the cabin, but it sounds surprisingly good, even when pushed. The cabin does a good job muting most road and tire noise, and at idle you'll barely hear the engine. But while road and wind noise is hushed, large and small impacts still creep into the cabin.

Interior

7.0

The cabin is just roomy enough, but smarter packaging would open it up — the deep dashboard gobbles valuable real estate (and creates forward blind spots). Otherwise, the controls are intuitively placed, save for the tacked-on touchscreen display, which feels, well, tacky and could be executed better.

Ease of use

7.5

Most common controls are simple to read and within easy reach, but the steering wheel and stalk buttons are a bit cryptic. The touchscreen, basically a tablet affixed to the dash, is tricky. Its vertical orientation requires a steady finger to enter commands. A separate controller would be preferable.

Getting in/getting out

6.5

The front seat height is just right, and short thigh bolsters make it easy to slide in and out. The rear seats are trickier — the seat bottoms are placed higher than the front seats for a "stadium seating" effect — which is nice for rear passengers to see out the windshield, but it requires a noticeable step up.

Driving position

7.0

A decent range of power seat adjustments makes it easy to find a comfortable perch, whether you prefer traditional SUV "command"-style or lower "cockpit"-style angle. Thigh-angle adjustment would be nice especially for taller drivers on long drives.

Roominess

7.0

The driver and front passenger get good headroom and legroom, but they'll fight over a tiny armrest surface. Rear seat room is decent, but 6-foot-tall front passengers will make things tight for the passenger behind them. There's a good sense of space between the seats and the door panels. The cabin doesn't feel claustrophobic.

Visibility

6.0

Forward visibility is obscured by large windshield pillars, while small sail windows at the pillar bases make futile attempts to reclaim some of that visibility. Thick rear window pillars also create large blind spots. The narrow rear window doesn't help. Blind-spot monitoring is a welcome feature.

Quality

7.0

The EcoSport looks and feels solid overall, but our test car had an annoying and persistent unidentified rattle from the rear of the cabin.

Utility

7.0

Like the larger Escape, the EcoSport suits active lifestyles. The EcoSport offers cargo space similar to the Jeep Renegade and the Mini Countryman and a bit larger than the Mazda CX-3. It requires an orchestrated seat and headrest flipping/folding routine to yield maximum space. The left-hinged tailgate opens to the side for curbside cargo-loading.

Small-item storage

7.0

There's a very skinny but deep center console up front with a handy tray. The door pockets offer bottle holders and long molded channels for phones, snacks and personal items. The mobile phone cutout/shelf for the front passenger is a nice touch.

Cargo space

7.5

With 20.9 cubic feet behind the second row, and 50 cubes of maximum cargo space, the EcoSport makes a compelling case to drivers who like to move around with outdoor and weekend gear or shopping-trip hauls. It's more space than most rivals offer, although it's well short of what you'd get by sizing up.

Child safety seat accommodation

6.0

Lower LATCH anchors aren't very easy to access. The seat backing is pretty stiff, and you'll need to work the buckles to push them past the stiff upholstery and connect with the LATCH hooks. There are three tethers behind the rear seatbacks.

Technology

7.0

The optional Sync 3 infotainment system is fast and useful. Response time to inputs and commands is blazing. Voice controls require deliberate sequence and syntax. It's easy to learn but clumsy. Bypass with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto if you can. The B&O Play audio system, standard on this trim, exceeds expectations for segment.

Audio & navigation

7.5

Onboard navigation looks sharp and sophisticated and offers a good alternative to iPhone and Android navigation apps. The 8-inch touchscreen is large and high-resolution. Good audio quality, although there's a certain color baked into the B&O system. Basic EQ functions help dial in the best tone.

Smartphone integration

7.0

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included with Sync 3, which comes standard on SE trims and above. (The base S model offers a basic Sync system.) Other devices can be integrated into the EcoSport's basic Bluetooth or wired Sync system.

Driver aids

6.0

It offers a rearview camera and blind-spot monitoring (almost a necessity owing to the enormous rear blind spot) but no other more advanced features, such as automatic emergency braking or lane departure warning. They're not even optional.

Voice control

7.0

Voice controls are limited to phone, navigation and audio commands, but they work well enough within those parameters. Users need to follow a fairly rigid sequence, and clear enunciation is key. Voice command defaults to Siri when an iPhone is plugged into the USB even when operating outside of CarPlay. Odd.

2019 Ford EcoSport models

The 2019 Ford EcoSport is a five-passenger subcompact crossover that slots below the Escape in Ford's SUV lineup. The EcoSport S is pretty well equipped, with available all-wheel drive and most basic amenities you'll want from a modern car. The SE is quite a bit pricier, but its list of added features is extensive. From there, buyers can go in one of two ways: the sport-themed SES — adding the EcoSport's upgraded engine and standard all-wheel drive — or the luxurious Titanium, with leather upholstery and a B&O Play premium sound system.

EcoSport S, SE and Titanium models with front-wheel drive are powered by a turbocharged 1.0-liter three-cylinder engine (123 horsepower, 125 pound-feet of torque). Optional for those models and standard on the SES is all-wheel drive and a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (166 hp, 149 lb-ft). Both engines are paired to a six-speed automatic transmission.

The short list of standard equipment on the base S model is indicative of its modest price. Features include 16-inch alloy wheels, automatic headlights, a rearview camera, cruise control, a tilt-and-telescoping steering wheel, height-adjustable front seats, 60/40-split rear seats, a cargo cover, a removable cargo floor panel, Bluetooth, a 4.2-inch central display screen, and a six-speaker audio system with two USB ports.

Upgrading to the SE equips the EcoSport with LED running lights, foglights, a windshield wiper de-icer, body-colored exterior accents, roof rails, rear privacy glass, rear parking sensors, a sunroof, keyless entry and ignition, automatic climate control, an upgraded driver information display, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power-adjustable driver seat, heated front seats, upgraded cloth upholstery, a 6.5-inch touchscreen with the Sync 3 interface, satellite radio, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto functionality.

The SE's optional Convenience package further adds blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, interior ambient lighting, a navigation system, an 8-inch touchscreen, a seven-speaker audio system, a Wi-Fi hotspot and a 110-volt household-style power outlet.

The SES is the somewhat sporty variant. It has the contents of the Convenience package and the 2.0-liter engine/AWD combo, along with 17-inch wheels, heated mirrors, a rear spoiler, a sport-tuned suspension, black exterior styling elements, automatic wipers, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a heated steering wheel with wheel-mounted shift paddles, and leather upholstery with cloth inserts. The new Black Appearance package adds a black roof and hood decal.

The luxe Titanium builds off the contents of the SE with the Convenience package, further adding 17-inch wheels, chrome exterior trim, body-colored bumpers, heated mirrors, automatic wipers, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a heated steering wheel, leather upholstery, and a 10-speaker B&O Play premium audio system with HD radio.

A keyless entry keypad and remote engine start are stand-alone options on every trim level.

The Perfect SUV For Me

Matt A., 05/16/2020

2019 Ford EcoSport SE 4dr SUV (1.0L 3cyl Turbo 6A)

I’ve had my 2019 EcoSport SE for three weeks. I found it on the lot as a demo with 19 miles on it. After owning it for this time, this is what I like about it. The EcoBoost 1.0 liter turbocharged 3-cylinder engine moves this subcompact SUV rather well in urban and freeway driving. It’s paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission that shifts smoothly. People seem to read the word … “turbocharged” and right away think hard acceleration and everything else that comes with that word. Some people claim 15 mpg combined. I’ve gotten the EPA combined of 28 mpg. This SUV is not a street racer. I like the SYNC 3 with Voice-Activated Navigation that is one of the options that comes with the SE Convenience Package. It’s the easiest telematics and infotainment system in the market in my opinion. This package adds a Blind Spot Warning with Cross Traffic Alert and an 8-inch screen for the SYNC 3 system. The SE model comes with upgraded wheels, a moon roof, electronically controlled AC, and power everything. Of note, is the six-way power drivers seat that allows me to really get comfortable. I’m 5’ 10”. Unique to this model in the subcompact SUV class is a tailgate that swings open to the left. No hatch here! Not a problem for me as some people claim problems opening it when they’re parallel parked. I hardly ever parallel park. What don’t I like about the EcoSport? The lack of a spare tire, not even a compact one. Instead, a tire inflater kit is included, which is of no help if the tire is torn or shredded. More on my EcoSport SE after six months of ownership. UPDATE 1: After six months of ownership, I’ve racked up approximately 4,800 miles. I’m driving less due to the pandemic. Fuel mileage has improved significantly as I’m averaging 33-34 mpg combined. I’m filling up with 89 mid-octane, though premium gasoline is recommended. So far; so good! No mechanical or electronic issues whatsoever. Drivability has also improved, though one needs to keep both hands on the wheel in really strong crosswinds. The 6-speed automatic suits this vehicle best. I’m glad Ford didn’t drop their dual clutch automatic into this vehicle. It’s a subcompact SUV, but spacious enough to fit a full size Cello with the seats down—and then some. I solved the issue of the lack of a compact spare tire (story for another time). I’m still happy with my purchase. UPDATE 2: After a year of ownership, I’ve managed to only rack up a bit over 10,000 miles due to retirement and the pandemic. Everything I mentioned above still stands. I’ve had no mechanical or electronic problems with my EcoSport SE as I’ve kept up with maintenance. I’m now refueling with Regular (87 octane) gasoline. This didn’t affect mileage or performance. Currently, I’m getting 31/33/36 mpg (city/combined/highway). Grabby brakes seem to be the only characteristic I haven’t been able to fully modulate. Then again, I had this minor problem on my 2018 Ford Escape. Though it’s rated as a 5-passenger vehicle, I don’t recommend putting 3 persons in the back seat, unless it’s children. Also, one will struggle a bit installing car seats for babies/toddlers depending on the seat size. Been there; done that! (grandchildren) I’m still happy with my EcoSport SE though. I love the way it handles, especially cornering. This size SUV is perfect for 2 people and the occasional extra 2 passengers. Fuel mileage is excellent, unless one starts street racing. (Save yourself the fuel) I’m planning a long highway trip this coming summer. I’m sure my EcoSport SE will continue to be a joy to drive. UPDATE 3: Currently, I’ve managed to reach 16K miles on my 2019 Ford EcoSport SE and still going strong. Fuel mileage remains at 31/33/36 (city/combined/highway). I’ve had no mechanical issues. The Sync 3 touchscreen had a glitch, which was promptly taken care of at the dealer by reprogramming the system. With time I’ve come to appreciate the electronic AC system, heated front seats, and voice activated navigation. I’m still happy with my EcoSport. UPDATE 4: I’ve had my EcoSport 2 years and racked up 20,000 miles so far. Fuel mileage is still as quoted above. A light foot on the accelerator helps a lot. What I’ve noticed over time is how quiet the engine is. The interior is not invaded much by the engine humming along. Here in South Central Texas, we run the AC ten months of the year. The system is strong and really cools down quickly. I’m still happy with my little SUV. UPDATE 5: Going on three years of ownership next April, I’ve managed to rack close to 25K miles. Gas mileage has remained the same at 31/33/36. The interior is still free of squeaks and rattles. No mechanical, electrical, or electronic problems. Brakes are not as grabby as before. I’ve kept up with maintenance also. I really appreciate the height and size of my EcoSport. I’m still very happy with this subcompact SUV. UPDATE 6: At 3 years and 30,200 miles, my EcoSport SE is still humming along. Everything I’ve mentioned before still holds true. The interior is still free of squeaks and rattles. The electronic AC still provides fast cooling. Fuel mileage is still the same as mentioned above. I plan on keeping my EcoSport longer since reliability has not been an issue. Then again, this little engine has been around since 2012 and the bugs have been fixed throughout the years. It’s too bad the 2022 model year was the last for the EcoSport in the US. In my opinion, Ford could’ve done so much more with this small SUV. UPDATE 7: At 3.5 years with my 2019 EcoSport SE, I’ve put a bit over 34,000 miles on it. I’ve kept up with maintenance and have listened for noises under the hood. I hear the occasional turbo whine when I’m cruising above 80 mph, but it’s not always the case. No problems with electronics, A/C, engine, or transmission. Mileage as mentioned above is still holding. I’ve read about major problems with the oil pump going out on the engine. However, proper maintenance should help avoid that. As to the lack of a compact spare tire, after careful research I found that the compact spare from a 2004 sport version of a Ford Focus works. I found one on eBay for $75 and promptly had the tire replaced. I bought a jack and problem solved. I occasionally fill up with Premium to help the engine. This little SUV is loaded with options and I still love driving it. UPDATE 8: Still humming long with my EcoSport SE after 4 years. The odometer turned 39,000 miles yesterday. I’m still getting the same results with mileage as mentioned in the previous updates. No mechanical, electrical, or electronic problems so far. However, the problem mentioned in UPDATE 7 on the oil pump is now a recall. I’m waiting on Ford to contact me about parts so I can schedule the needed repairs. I’ve kept up with required maintenance as per Ford’s schedule and that should help some. I’ll give Ford the opportunity to make good on this recall. I really want to keep my EcoSport.

Shiny white!

2019 Ford EcoSport Titanium 4dr SUV (1.0L 3cyl Turbo 6A)

8 months in, I love this car! I feel it’s “just right.” I really like the Ford Sync3 infotainment system, and that it has Apple CarPlay and I can hook my phone in. Coming from a hybrid wagon, handling and maneuverability was a huge upgrade with this car. (And brakes!!) Back seat isn’t the roomiest, but most of the time for me it isn’t in use.
