The latest Ford EcoSport
The latest Ford EcoSport
This week we take a look at two of Ford’s popular models, namely the new Ford Figo and Ford EcoSport.
The characteristics of the Figo are that it is sophisticated and also has an upmarket appeal.
Key to the Figo’s more modern, refined appearance is an attractive new front end distinguished by an entirely new bumper design that houses a restyled honeycomb grille, reflecting the latest Ford design language.
This is complemented by eye-catching detailing for the front fog lamp surrounds, framed by creative accents that link the lower bezel to the upper section of the bumper, giving the latest model a dynamic and elegant flair.
New chrome inserts in the headlamps add a further dash of sophistication, imparting far greater stand-out appeal for the new Figo over its predecessor.
The sporty stance is further enhanced by the stylish new dual-tone multi-spoke 14-inch alloy wheels for the Trend models, and updated wheel caps for the Ambiente versions which have 14-inch steel rims.
At the rear, the new Figo benefits from subtle, yet effective changes to the tail light clusters, along with an all-new rear bumper design that gives the car a notably more contemporary character.
A new ‘White Gold’ colour option is available exclusively on the Figo Trend models to complement the carry-over options that can be specified across the range: Oxford White, Absolute Black, Smoke, Deep Impact Blue, Ruby Red and Moondust Silver.
The interior of the Figo has been updated too, particularly around the centre console and upper instrument panel. The cleaner design, particularly for the audio system, enhances comfort and ease of use.
New fabric inserts on the door panels and the selection of a new, more modern fabric for the seats further enhance the interior ambience.
• The new Ford EcoSport offers rugged, stylish new exterior that builds on Ford’s SUV heritage.
Furthermore it boasts ergonomic interior features floating central touchscreens up to 8-inches coupled with a powerful, fuel-efficient and award-winning 1.0 EcoBoost engine.
The new six-speed automatic transmission is available on Trend and Titanium 1.5 whilst the TDCi is available on the Ambiente.
Lastly, the sophisticated technologies on range-topping models include SYNC®3 connectivity with Navigation, Cruise Control with Adjustable Speed Limiter.
Electronic Stability Control, a minimum of six airbags and rear parking sensors standard across the range. Rudi van Dyk, dealership principle, invites Oudtshoorn residents to visit the Oudsthoorn Ford dealership for a test drive.
