The FORD ECOSPORT (2017-23) is a compact SUV, offering a raised driving position and easier access than a conventional small hatchback. It sits in the popular small-crossover market, where it competes with models such as the Nissan Juke and Renault Captur. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 21,302 checks across 10,414 different VINs, giving this overview a substantial used-car sample. Typically used for commuting, shopping and family errands, the EcoSport suits drivers wanting SUV styling and a manageable footprint for town streets. The checks show an average recorded mileage of 27,000 miles and annual mileage of 6,000, while cars had about one previous keeper on average. The average private sale valuation recorded was £12,600. Its size makes parking less daunting, while the higher seat gives a view of traffic; the rear door opens sideways, a distinctive touch. Against roomier rivals, it favours easy everyday driving over maximum space, suiting singles, couples and families.
