South African Ford fans who are hoping to get their hands on the Crossover Utility Vehicle (CUV) called the Ford EcoSport only have to wait until 2013 when it reaches the South African car market.
The concept version of the Ford EcoSport was unveiled
earlier this year at the New Delhi Auto Show with the production version coming to
fruition at the Beijing Motor Show recently. The overall look and feel of the
EcoSport is pleasing, taking on a solid yet sleek appearance. Ford’s all-new
EcoBoost engine will be humming under the hood and comes in the form of a ample
turbocharged 1,0-litre, three cylinder unit that produces 90kW and 170 N.m of
torque. CO2 emissions are impressive for a vehicle in this class with a figure
of only 140g/km.
The Ford EcoSport will feature various technologies
including Ford Sync driver connect system with voice control, keyless entry
with remote start-up, dual front and curtain airbags, ABS and ESP.
The Ford EcoSport will be produced in China, Brazil,
Thailand and India and will be offered to nearly 100 markets across the globe.
