Good compact SUV

Purchased Ford Ecosport in Aug 2013 and drove 26,000 kms till now. Longest drive in a day is 1100 kms with top speed of 170 kmph (average speed is 130 kmph) with two halts of 1 hr each. Had been to may long (above 500 kms)  & short trips (approx 300 kms) and always enjoyed the drive. This is my first car and had a great and lovely experience each km i drove it.

Exterior Highly satisfied.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Highly satisfied. I am a tall guy (6' 2") and this car suited me in all aspects. During day time, display is not visible due to its angle.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very good. Except pick-up in 2nd gar when driving within city. 12 kmpl in city, 14 kmpl highway with speed >130 kms, 18 kmpl highway with speed 80-120 kmph.

Ride Quality & Handling Very good.

Final Words Best car when compared to many other cars.

Areas of improvement 2nd gear pick-up, Head light intensity.
