Ford Ecosport Titanium (Ecoboost) - Diamond White

CliffHanger · 15th July 2013, 19:07

The car looks super cool inside out. Congrats on owning one!

Me tempted to exchange my Punto for Ecosport. Please keep the report updated, will be following it closely.

Congratulations on the new grumpy looking mean machine

. Yours would the first ecoboost on the forum. The colour looks good on the car alhtough I loved the Red coloured one which I had seen during promotion at one of the malls. Surely a head turner.

IMO Ford should have provided the cover for the spare tyre, but the raw tyre does give the SUV a butch look. I know its too early to ask for "kitna deti hai" but would be closely observing your thread since I had recommended the Ecosport to one of my office colleagues who would be upgrading from Fiesta D and would be more than happy to read your ownership review.

Happy many more mile crunching and drive safely. Suggest to have an extra dose of nimbu mirchi to ward off those evil eyes.

Congrats, the car looks good in white though my favourite colour for Ecosport is black.

What is the mileage you are getting? The real time mileage reported by reviewers is not great. I agree that ecoboost is fun to drive post 1800 rpm.

Congrats on the purchase!
It's good to know that the EcoSport is a comfortable ride for someone of your height. I have a friend who's just as tall as you and looking for a car. The choices are really very limited; I'm going to recommend the EcoSport to him.

Hi SaiSrujan,

Firstly, Many congratulations for the awesome ride!

The white looks well augmented and has good road presence. Good review with crisp details. Can you throw in more detailed pictures of the interiors and the finer aspects?

Happy motoring!

Congrats for the first ever T-BHP Ecosport. Looks gorgeous in white. How does it perform over the inclines say whilst coming out from an underground parking lot.?

vnabhi · 15th July 2013, 22:44

@saisrujan---congrats for the Ecosport and for being the first to put up a crisp review on this forum.

It is nice to know that a fellow member from Hyderabad got the vehicle so soon. Was the dealer Mody or Vibrant/Fortune?

Shome · 15th July 2013, 22:45

Congratulations!!! It looks amazingly good in white. A well balanced write up. I somehow feel the spare wheel gives the car a lot of character and masculinity which I wouldn't want to hide under a cover

May the beast make you crunch more than a thousand kms every year and hope that you share it all with us. I'm hooked on to this thread.

Happy and safe driving

k_ajay · 15th July 2013, 23:43

Congrats Saisrujan. I'm eager to know more about the capabilities of the ecoboost engine in our conditions, so will keep an eye out for updates on your thread.

Please do keep sharing updates with us as a lot of new and potential owners will benefit. Wishing you kms of happiness and safe driving with the EcoSport..

Very nice snaps as well, thanks for sharing them. If you could, please do share pictures again when you have the accessories loaded. Cheers.

Congrats...!

But 'what I need to get used to' is a difficult list to digest.

ecosport rules · 16th July 2013, 04:13

Hey Saisrujan,
The review is really WOW!!

It was great meeting you too, felt extremely happy seeing my name in the vote of thanks.

Your review has really inspired me to do one for my ecosport TDCI too!

Happy motoring.

Congratulations, just hope and pray that petrol prices keep coming down so that you can enjoy the Ecoboost even more! Wish you many safe miles with the vehicle and please update the thread whenever you can :-)

Good choice of car as well as the version.

I feel the EcoSport is a different type of car among all the others at present. Something like what Swift was when it was first launched. Looks different in a nice way that you feel like wanting it.

I test drove only the EcoBoost version and not the diesel or 1.5 petrol,. It is a good choice that you made for your type of mileage. It is neither a Polo TSI nor does it feel like a Alto K10(engine size). It is a mix of both which I feel is perfect for city and highway drives. The turbo lag is the only minus I felt which I am sure is a matter of getting used to.

Welcome to Ford and have fun.

Regards

Detailed review with some very nice clicks. But trust me- with all the interest the car has generated- people will cry for more details, more clicks.

Keep updating the thread please.

Which Goodyear is it? My experience with GT3s were not that great- although long lasting, they are Rick hard and transmit shocks from each and every stone into the cabin.

Nicky · 16th July 2013, 08:35

A very well written ownership.
congratulations for the great car in it's class.
More Technical gadgets details and more pics would be great addition with time and your experience.
