All New Ford EcoSport 2014

Having introduced several times and using several programs pre-launch (some even have circulated in the streets of the capital), PT. Ford Motor Indonesia officially launched their newest SUV is All New Ford EcoSport 2014. Mobil is even since last year is introduced as a challenger of the incoming class duo Mini SUV Toyota Daihatsu is Toyota Rush and Daihatsu Terios.


Ideally SUVs, All New Ford EcoSport 2014 comes with a sporty design. Wide lower grille design coupled with a slightly rounded body that tends to make the All New Ford EcoSport to be more unique when compared to cars in its class. Aerodynamic lines that cross at the side of the vehicle also gives more value to the look of the vehicle.



On the back side, Ford put a 'bun' spare tire. Placement is almost right in the middle makes the car behind became instantly know that this is a Ford car. Because, some of today's most SUV spare tire bun put them over kepinggir and not right in the middle.

nto the cabin, Ford Fiesta dashboard displays performance with a blend of black color with silver color. The result was successful enough to make the car feel more sport. Upholstery on every type has a different color but has a design that is similar to the semi-bucket for the driver and front passenger.



Other advantages are the wide side of the cabin. Yes, with the spare tire placed on the back, it is automatically a vehicle cabin can be maximized. Additionally Ford has also prepared a total of nine cup holders around the corners of the vehicle. "This car is the car to drive itself and the path that may be hard to reach. To this end we prepared a lot of cup holders so that passengers inside no confusion should be put where their glasses," said Bagus Susanto, Managing PT. Ford Motor Indonesia.

Not wrong if we demand a bit much for considering this problem is a performance SUV. To that end, Ford has also equip the car with a 4 cylinder 1.5L engine Ti-VCT which is capable of removing power to reach 110 hp and maximum torque of 142 Nm at 4,400 touches rpm.



But, is not actually an engine that we think merits. Yet it is precisely this ability to bypass flood vehicles that deserve thumbs up. Ford claims that this car has a ground clearance of 200 mm and able to deal with puddles as high as 550 mm. The water level is pretty much like a car driver in Jakarta faced when flood.



Features

Each variant has its own features. But in general, the Ford EcoSport has been equipped with Ford SYNC connectivity features that have invested in some of the line-up previously. With this it is for entertainment and connectivity affairs when driving is no matter.



Meanwhile, for the safety side, Ford also has prepared a number of technologies that allow drivers to control the vehicle. Call it the Hill Launch Assist (HLA), Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) and Emergency Brake Assist (EBA) is ready to protect the occupants in the event of things that are not desirable.
