Ford EcoSport Facelift Launch Date

Launch Date 9 November 2017

The launch of the facelift happens merely a few weeks after the introduction of the Tata Nexon. The EcoSport was once the highest selling model in its segment. It was overtaken by the Vitara Brezza, which has been the current market leader in this segment. Also, the introduction of the Nexon makes the competition even fiercer. The refreshed Ford SUV will now try to reclaim its lost glory by offering an updated visual package, more features, and a new petrol engine.

Ford EcoSport Facelift Price in India

Variantย  Expected Price
Base Model Rs 6.90 Lakh
Top Model Rs 11.10 Lakh

Prices of the facelifted EcoSport are very likely to start below Rs 7 lakh. The base petrol model should have an ex-showroom price of Rs 6.90 lakh. The fully-loaded Diesel model should cost a little more than Rs 11 lakh. The Nexon hasย gone on sale at a really competitive price point. Hence, it gets really necessary for Ford India to price its new offering very competitively. Much like the Nexon, the EcoSport facelift offers both Petrol and Diesel engines. However, there’s no automatic for the Diesel, at least not at the moment.
