Scoop: Updated Ford EcoSport spotted; brochure leaked

Thank you to BHPians PratikPatel and LionX for sharing these images with other enthusiasts!

The updated Ford EcoSport has been spotted at a dealership stockyard. The images show that there is no visual change to the exterior of the car. As we had reported earlier, the car continues to carry its spare wheel on the tailgate. The only noticeable change is the addition of a new brown body colour.

The brochure of the vehicle shows that while Ford has not bothered with cosmetic changes, it has made some mechanical changes to the diesel variant of the car. The 1.5 TDCi engine now produces 99 BHP - a gain of 9 BHP over the outgoing EcoSport. The torque figure of 205 Nm remains unchanged. There are no changes to the 1.5-litre petrol and 1.0-litre EcoBoost engines.

The updated EcoSport will be available in five trim levels - Ambient, Trend, Trend+, Titanium and Titanium +. An automatic transmission is available only with the 1.5-litre petrol engine and in the Titanium trim level.

Ford has equipped the EcoSport with features such as signature light guides, automatic headlamps, DRLs, rain sensing wipers, auto-dimming mirror, a start/stop button and Sync with Applink.
