Finalmente, another post.
Road Test of the Ford EcoSport
(www.ford.com)
I was in a Ford EcoSport, so I figure that I should make a post about it.
To start, the interior is fairly meh. The plastics appear to be pretty good for what they are. They stayed quiet and didn't rattle. The seats were all right as well. They were cloth, and decently comfortable. However, the dash had one of those annoying "info-tainment" screens. It was too sensitive, and was a pain when driving over bumps. The suspension however, was a different story.
The suspension was too hard for what it was trying to be. It was somehow rolly-polly and jarring at the same time. It's the New Coke of suspension. Just somehow terrible in every way. I think the problem with it is that, like the crossover the EcoSport is, the suspension is trying to be two things and failing at them both.
The engine seemed good, however. The car had decent pickup, and seemed to have no trouble merging.
The name could do with a bit of changing. "Sport" and "Eco" do not go together. Although both are good, they ruin each other.
This, on principle, is not a bad car. It just needs to go on a diet and get the suspension lowered. I made a drawing!

Do you have any thoughts about cats/cats? What drives you crazy? One post a week so stay tuned!
I had one of these as a rental car 3 months ago. It wasn't too bad. I could see someone using it as a commuter vehicle. I agree that it wasn't bad, but wasn't great either. I would buy this as a first car for my granddaughter.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you. It is an AWD, and has the auto-ignitition on/off. If the AWD is turned off it is decent gas mileage. I would not say it is great though. I hate the auto-ignitition though.
ReplyDeletePenpie's nephew here, I enjoy your drawings. Have you thought about taking lessons? It seems like you have a talent.
ReplyDeleteFord ceosport is my dream car. Very nice to see this.
