Ford EcoSport pro rok 2021, jako energický crossover, si je velmi vědom své spotřeby paliva, aby pomohl řidičům v Plainfield, Indianapolis a Brownsburg, IN, trávit méně času na čerpací stanici.
Díky neuvěřitelnému MPG na vzdálenost 27 měst/29 dálnic podle odhadu EPA vás EcoSport dokáže efektivně dostat z bodu A do bodu B. Náš tým zde v Andy Mohr Ford se blíže podíval na výkon tohoto SUV a na to, co to znamená z hlediska spotřeby plynu při této jízdě.
Jaký je dojezd na benzín Ford EcoSport?
S oběma motory vybavenými technologií Auto Start-Stop odvádí Ford EcoSport vynikající práci při minimalizaci spotřeby paliva. Tato technologie automaticky vypne motor, když zastavíte, a poté jej plynule znovu spustí, když se znovu začnete pohybovat.
Se standardním motorem 1.0 l EcoBoost® dosáhne vozidlo EPA-odhad 27 město/29 dálnice MPG. I s výkonnějším dostupným motorem 2.0 l a inteligentním systémem 4WD nabízí Ford EcoSport stále vynikající spotřebu paliva s MPG 23 měst/29 dálnic podle odhadu EPA.

Much like the ocean washes away the imperfections on a pebble over time, a number of updates and revisions have been made to the Ford Ecosport over the years since it first arrived in the UK around a decade age, the aim being to keep it competitive in a burgeoning small SUV market.
The analogy of smoothing rough edges is apt here. Early incarnations of Ford’s smallest SUV had far too many shortcomings – a low-rent interior, limited infotainment technology and a cumbersome side-hinged tailgate – to be recommended in the same breath as rivals that include the Nissan Juke and the Renault Captur.
At a glance, it gets the fundamentals right. Its chunky looks give off all the right SUV vibes, and you can see that it’ll lift you nice and high off the ground. What’s more, the Ford Ecosport is based on the Ford Fiesta and that’s a pretty solid foundation to build upon. Its choice of two turbocharged 1.0-litre petrol engines, with 123bhp and 138bhp, compares well with the equivalents offered by the Hyundai Kona and the Kia Stonic.

But, under pressure from fine-handling rivals as the Suzuki Vitara and the Seat Arona the latest version needs to be a pleasure to drive and the previous model fell short of the usual high Ford standards. The Ecosport certainly can’t afford to be embarrassed by its bigger brother, the Ford Puma – our small SUV of the year for 2021 – especially when that model isn’t hugely more expensive.
In this review, we’ll look at if the latest Ford Ecosport has come on far enough to be worth considering in a field of extremely talented rivals. We’ll rate it for performance and handling, boot space and practicality, reliability, running costs and more.

O programu
The Ecosport’s chunky looks and commanding driving position are easy to fall for, but it’s a disappointing car to drive and is stingy with space inside. With no diesel or four-wheel drive option, there are few reasons to choose an Ecosport over more accomplished rivals.

Jaké to je řídit a jak je to tiché
Of the two engines offered, both of which are turbocharged 1.0-litre petrols, we’d suggest you look to the Ford Ecosport’s 124bhp Ecoboost 125. It’s free-revving, flexible and provides good performance. And, while there is a 138bhp Ecoboost 140 version of the same engine, it’s only available with the range-topping ST-Line trim so is too expensive to recommend.
All Ecosport models have a six-speed manual gearbox as standard – something that you’ll find yourself operating regularly, due to its relatively short gearing. An automatic is no longer offered, unlike many of its fellow small SUV competitors.

Sadly, the Ecosport’s handling doesn’t inspire much confidence. Its steering is far too vague, leaving you sawing at the wheel on anything but poker-straight motorways, and there’s considerable body lean in corners.
The biggest problem, though, is the way the Ecosport rides. It rarely settles down and tends to jostle occupants around in town – and things don’t improve much with speed. Things are especially bumpy in ST-Line models, which have stiffer suspension.
Refinement is acceptable in a class where there are no really quiet contenders. The Ecosport’s engines are noisier than they are in the Ford Fiesta but are especially wheezy when getting up to speed. There’s vibration through the pedals, and the door mirrors whip up quite a bit of wind noise, plus the clutch pedal is very heavy, with quite a short travel before it engages, and may catch you by surprise to begin with. Still, at least the gearshift is solid and slots into gear positively.
Interiér
Vnitřní uspořádání, montáž a povrchová úprava
The latest Ecosport is far smarter inside than previous versions, and has the edge on the Seat Arona, thanks to soft-touch materials being used on the top of the dashboard and a cushioned section on the door armrest. However, below-par build quality is revealed by plenty of creaks when you grab onto the door handle, and newer rivals such as the Skoda Kamiq have a far classier feel.
One area where the Ecosport does beat the Kamiq, and indeed much of the small SUV class, is by offering a commanding driving position. You sit completely upright like you might in an SUV twice its size, with a good view of the road straight ahead, although the A-pillars are relatively thick. The rearmost pillars are also quite chunky, but large door mirrors and a standard rear-view camera help with visibility when backing up.
It’s a shame that the front seats are quite narrow and have manual adjustment regardless of which trim you pick. Manual lumbar support adjustment is available throughout the range, though. The pedals have quite a long travel, which means shorter drivers might have to sit closer to the steering wheel, but the wheel itself can now be adjusted for both height and reach, unlike previous versions of the Ecosport.
The dashboard is based on the latest Fiesta’s, and most of the major controls are easy to use on the move. A 8.0in touchscreen is standard, controlling DAB radio, USB connection plus Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone mirroring. It’s design is outdated, though; the Arona’s on-screen graphics are sharper and laid out much neater.

There’s enough leg and head room up front for most drivers to feel comfortable, but the Ecosport is narrow, so you may feel that elbow room is a little restricted.
Rear leg room is disappointing, though. There’s plenty of foot space under the front seats and a recess for your knees, but any driver close to six feet tall will eliminate any real space left in the back. It’s equally narrow back there, too, so squeezing three across the rear bench will only be an option for short journeys. It’s also a shame that there’s none of the sliding-seat versatility that you get in the Renault Captur.
More likely to irritate is the fairly small boot, which is accessed via a heavy and impractical side-opening door. It means you can’t get to the boot when you back into a tight car park space or when parked close to a wall or garage. It’s also a pain to get into if you’re parallel-parked on the side of a busy road.
The rear seats can fold in a 60:40 configuration, and you can do this from the boot using a lever. They don’t fold flat, though, and leave a step in the floor. Overall, boot space lags behind that offered by the Captur and the Seat Arona.

Přístup
The Ford Ecosport might look like a big, tall SUV but it’s actually smaller than it looks, and that compromises its usability for those who have restricted mobility.
The first signs are good; the doors open to a seriously wide 69 degrees, so they’re well out of the way when you’re trying to get into or out of the driver’s seat. However, the door aperture itself is only 795mm wide, so you’re forced to clamber through what is a comparatively small hole.
For comparison, a Citroen C3 Aircross has doors that don’t open quite as wide but leave a larger aperture, so access is that bit easier.
The Ecosport also has high sills, the tops of which are a full 443mm from the road surface, so there’s a larger step into the car than you’ll need to negotiate in some rivals – the Skoda Kamiq sills, for example, are more than 20mm lower. That said, the floor of the Ecosport is just 90mm lower than the top of the sill, so you won’t have to perform much of a stomach crunch when getting out.
The driver’s seat has adjustable lumbar support and height-adjustment, but neither of these functions are present on the passenger seat.
Skladování
The Ecosport’s boot is small by the standards of the small SUV class, with just 356 litres of space available when all the seats are in use. So, while a wheelchair will fit in the boot, you’ll have to fold it up before you can get it in there.
It’s also a pain that the rear seats leave a step in the boot floor when they’re folded down, so you can’t just roll an unfolded wheelchair into the space.
Worse still, the boot is accessed through a side-hinged door, so loading and unloading can be a pain in a confined space, or if someone has parked right behind you. There’s no option of electrical operation for the boot door, either, further hindering convenience.
More helpfully, the boot floor lies level with the bottom of the tailgate, so there’s no obstruction to lift heavy and awkward items over. The boot aperture is more than 880mm tall, so bulky items go through without a squeeze, and there are plenty of hooks and lashing points to secure loads when they’re in.
Ease of use and options
First and foremost, there is no automatic gearbox option for the Ecosport, so if you need a self-shifter you’ll need to look elsewhere.
There are two engines on offer, both of which are variants of a 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbo petrol, but the 124bhp version is all you’ll need. That’s handy because the more powerful 138bhp engine is only available with the top ST-Line trim, which puts the price up considerably.
The six-speed gearbox has a light, easy shift action, and the clutch pedal is light, although you have to push it down quite a long way.
Standard equipment includes rear parking sensors and a rear-view camera, which reduces the need for neck twisting when parking, but you’ll need to pay extra for the optional X-Pack if you want the convenience of keyless entry and engine start. You also get an 8.0in touchscreen that features Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone mirroring. As touchscreens go it’s easy to use and it’s placed nice and high up on the dashboard, making it easy to read on the move.
