फ़ोर्ड ईकोस्पोर्ट [2017-2019] यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Writing this review after 3 months of purchase and after completing 2.5k km in city driving If you are considering EcoSport as your next purchase please read this very carefully.. I own a manual diesel version.. I shifted to this car from swift dzire diesel which I drove for 1lac+ km with complete satisfaction I will start with EcoSport negatives area as the list is long ;-) Performance is below average - it misses out that punchy thrust you expect from 1.5L, overtaking needs bit of calculation which is not at all confidence aspiring :-( my dzire was a rocket .. missing you baby.. Fuel average is 15kmpl which I think is poor If you are buying diesel version for some savings in running department.. i own Skoda tank built diesel car which gives 18kmpl with heavy foot .. way better than EcoSport.. Drivability is POOR... Heavy clutch will make your life miserable .. initial 500 km it felt normal but gradually became heavy and now I'm feeling why the hell I spent 10L for such uncomfortable vehicle interms of driving :-( waiting for first service to have this checked.. Breaks are not that confident aspiring.. this nose diving behaviour of vehicle will applying breaks will surely leave you in shock... I am also facing issues when applying breaks on rough roads .. the break paddle behaves abnormal while pressing n shakes a bit with some scary sound .. will get it checked in my first service :-( very disappointed here.. Other than above most important points.. there are few small silly issues..like the alarm sound speaker has gone bad .. the voice has distorted sound .. funny Even after having double barrel headlamps the visibility isn't that great.. since day one of purchase wipers making skidding sound on front glass :-( due to which had annoying experience throughout the monsoon season.. driver arm rest is just of no use .. ford could have taken it off rather .. stupid placement of this very useful thing .. What all I wrote above are some very important factors you will have in your mind while buying a car.. I don't know why my judgement failed when I was out for a purchase :-( Now let's see some positive points I noticed in the car which actually does not justify the cost of the car but still makes you feel happy sometime :-) Touchscreen with voice commands is supremely good.. it's fluidic responsive with great audio output.. Seating position is very comfortable.. Air-conditioning system works like charm . Great cooling capacity Minimal body roll while making sharp corners cuts Well nothing more good coming up in my mind for this vehicle as you get these things in lesser priced cars as well .. so why to spend 10L here I have been driving from last 19 yrs now and have owned following cars - Maruti 800 / Zen / Esteem / Hyundai i20 diesel / Swift Dzire Diesel / Skoda Rapid Diesel / followed by this recent purchase of Ford EcoSport.. My strong recommendation would be either Brezza or Nexon if entering this segment of vehicle.. it will give you value for your money and trust me they are far punchier cars if you are an enthusiast driver .. EcoSport needs lot of improvement to compete with then Goodbye for now .. Drive safe !
