At Beechmont Ford Inc, we want to help simplify your research process if you’re in the market to purchase a new car. We have the insider information you’re looking for as it pertains to our incredible lineup of new Fords. In particular, we’d like to shine the spotlight on the 2021 Ford EcoSport, one of our most talked-about models of 2021! Here’s everything you need to know about the EcoSport:
Basics About the 2021 Ford EcoSport
The new EcoSport made its head-turning debut on our showroom floor in late 2020. It’s classed as a subcompact SUV, one of the most popular classes of vehicles on the market right now. Subcompact SUVs are smaller in size than their compact cousins like the Ford Escape. This allows them to be priced a bit lower and be more fuel-efficient, which are both major selling points.
Compared to other subcompact SUVs, the EcoSport is particularly fuel-efficient. Its 1.0-liter EcoBoost engine allows it to have fuel economy ratings of 29 mpg on the highway and 27 mpg in the city. Its start/stop engine functionality also boosts efficiency. The EcoSport impresses in terms of infotainment and safety features too. It has available Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, and touchscreen navigation. Its available safety packages include hill-start assist, a reverse sensing system, a blind spot information system, and more.
Pricing
The EcoSport’s starting price depends on its trim, but all trims are quite affordable. The base S model is priced at $20,395. The next trim level, SE, has an MSRP of $23,960 and includes standard infotainment features like touchscreen navigation and smartphone connectivity for both Apple and Android phones. The mid-tier Titanium trim has a starting price of $26,895 and comes with everything the SE has to offer plus additional safety and infotainment features.
The Titanium’s extra features include a blind spot information system as well as 10 B&O® Sound System speakers. If audio quality matters to you, the speakers in the Titanium model make a big difference. The priciest trim level is the deluxe SES trim, which costs $28,155. At the SES trim, you get standard 4WD and a 2.0-liter engine that produces a bit more horsepower than the 1.0-liter engine. This is a plus if you have the need for speed and want your EcoSport to accelerate a bit faster.
New/Unique Features
The 2021 EcoSport isn’t substantially different from the 2020 model. Ford stuck with what worked in the previous year’s model and added a few additional perks. In comparison to the 2020 EcoSport, the 2021 model received a color upgrade and comes in two new exterior shades: blue and luxe yellow. It also boasts two 17-inch wheel types that are completely new: black-painted aluminum and shadow silver aluminum.
Additionally, a power driver’s seat is standard in the 2021 EcoSport at the Titanium and SES trim levels, which wasn’t the case in the 2020 EcoSport. Beginning at the SE trim and up, the new EcoSport also comes with an attractive new cargo cover and package tray.
