The car will be flanked by silvered roof rails, blacked-out B-pillars, and 16-inch alloy wheels.
The EcoSport shall be offered with two 1.5-liter engine choices: a naturally aspirated petrol motor that makes 121hp/149Nm and a turbo-diesel mill that delivers 99hp/215Nm. Transmission duties will be handled by a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed automatic gearbox.
The Ford EcoSport SE will offer a 5-seater cabin with fabric upholstery, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power windows, automatic climate control, and cruise control. It will also pack quad speakers and an 8.0-inch touchscreen infotainment panel with support for Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
