Ford EcoSport facelift interior spied

Ford India recently gave the EcoSport a host of updates including a bump-up in power for the diesel engine. A short while after the updated EcoSport was launched in India, a test mule of the facelifted EcoSport was spotted in complete camouflage in the US. Now, a fresh set of spy images have given us a sneak peek at the new car's dashboard.

Features that grab the eye are the new instrument cluster and infotainment display. The test mule doesn't sport the twin-pod layout of the current car. Instead, it gets a new multi-information display (MID) in the middle, with the speedometer and fuel gauge housed on the right, along with the tachometer and engine temperature gauge to the display's left.

Ford's SYNC system seems to have been updated and the infotainment display sports a full colour interface. The dashboard's design remains the same, but the silver bits around the centre console and AC vents have been replaced by piano black surrounds, while the car seems to get new switch-gear for the climate control system as well.

A few close-up images of the camouflaged exterior also show that the headlamps have been changed and look similar to the units seen on the new Endeavour / Everest. The tail lamps will also receive minor tweaks as will the fog lamps.

The new EcoSport will be unveiled later in 2016, but is unlikely to hit the Indian market before 2017.
