Read more to learn about what's new in this coming EcoSport model and what will stay the same.
Ford EcoSport: What Will Cross Over
To start, the 2019 Ford EcoSport will offer the same engine options as it did last year. Expect to see a standard 1.0L EcoBoost® 3-cylinder engine with 123 horsepower and 125 lb-ft of torque. This engine will also offer an EPA-estimated 27 city/ 29 highway MPG.
Of course, you can upgrade to the all-wheel-drive 2.0L 4-cylinder powertrain with 166 horsepower and 149 lb-ft of torque. This engine option provides an EPA-estimated 23 city/29 highway MPG for a great blend between fuel economy and power.
The safety features that were available with the 2018 Ford EcoSport will also cross over into the 2019 model. Features like BLIS® (Blind Spot Information System) makes a comeback here. This feature is great for highway driving as it alerts you when a vehicle is traveling along your blind spot.
2019 EcoSport: What is Being Improved
When it comes to the 2019 EcoSport, Ford set out to improve one major thing-infotainment. Central touch screens are becoming more and more important in modern vehicles and this model offers a robust setup.
With the available SYNC® 3 infotainment system, drivers can have easy access to features like onboard music streaming and navigation. Plus, we can likely expect to see the available B&O PLAY™ Premium 9-Speaker Audio System by HARMAN to make a return. This vehicle will fit some clear music into a small package with this audio setup.
Updates to the infotainment system in the 2019 EcoSport include Waze Navigation. This crowd-sourced navigation app will help you get the fastest commute possible. You can also make use of some upgraded Amazon Alexa features built into the system.
After that, this new model is also receiving a nice aesthetic option with the SES trim. Drivers who choose to use this trim may be able to opt to equip it with the SES Black Appearance Package. This will give your vehicle a black roof and hood panel to provide some unique style for your vehicle.
Keep Up to Date on the 2019 Ford EcoSport
Overall, drivers can expect the same great driving experience seen in last year's model of this compact crossover. There are of course a few nice tweaks in the infotainment system to provide drivers with a more comprehensive experience.
Drivers in the Cincinnati, Newport, and Covington areas are sure to enjoy the capabilities available inside this sporty vehicle. Our team at Fuller Ford aims to keep drivers up to date on the coming release of the 2019 Ford EcoSport.
