The FORD ECOSPORT (2017-23) 5DR SUV 1.5 ECOBLUE 125 DPF SS EU6 ST-LINE 6SPD is a compact five-door SUV, offering a raised driving position and easier access than a conventional hatchback. In the UK it sits among small, town-friendly crossovers, competing with cars such as the Nissan Juke, Renault Captur and Vauxhall Mokka. Its 1.5-litre diesel and six-speed manual suit drivers covering regular longer journeys, while the ST-Line’s sporty styling gives this practical Ford extra visual appeal. It can work for couples, small families and commuters wanting manageable dimensions, useful cabin space and better fuel economy potential than a petrol alternative. Like rivals, it is less suited to those needing a large family car or frequent short trips.
