2017 Ford EcoSport, Small SUV Fuel Efficiency | Ford Australia
EFFICIENCY
More of what you need, less of what you don’t.
No one should be a regular at their petrol station. That’s why the Ford EcoSport is designed to give you excellent fuel economy and responsive power, which means you’ll be seeing the guys at the pump a lot less frequently.
92kW EcoBoost Petrol Engine
Yes, it has been voted best in class at the International Engine of the Year Awards for 5 years running. But what counts is why. The 92kW, 3 cylinder EcoBoost Petrol, which is standard on the EcoSport Trend, delivers impressive fuel economy. But that’s what you’d expect from an engine this small, right? What you don’t expect is its power. In fact, this turbocharged petrol engine delivers 92kW Ecosport-efficiency-1 of power and 170NmEcosport-efficiency-2 of torque and a thrifty 5.7L per 100kmEcosport-efficiency-3

Power and Economy without compromise
When it comes to power, the turbocharged 92kW EcoBoostEcosport-efficiency-4 can easily compete with a traditional 1.6 litre petrol engine, delivering full torque at just 1500rpm. That’s a lot of power in an economical 3 cylinder footprint. But that’s what makes it so exceptional.
Fuel-saving design
The EcoSport has a drag co-efficient of 0.365. Why should you care? Because it means more fuel savings, thanks to an aerodynamic design that reduces friction. From its ‘teardrop’ shape to small details like the rear pillar kicker, it all works to limit wind resistance and reduce fuel consumption.
EPAS (with Pull-Drift Compensation)
Stable, responsive steering is the mark of a high-quality drive, and the EcoSport doesn’t disappoint. Electric power-assist steering is designed to adjust to feel ‘lighter’ in slow traffic and ‘heavier’ at higher speeds for better control. At the same time, it can adapt to changing road and weather conditions, compensating for factors like cross-winds and potholes. Best of all, it only comes to your assistance when it’s needed, saving you fuel as you drive.
6-speed PowerShift
Looking for the fuel efficiency of a manual with the ease of an automatic? The 6-speed PowerShift transmission delivers both. Or, if you’re more of a manual driver, you’ll love the responsiveness of the 5-speed manual transmission.
