2017 Ford EcoSport facelift image gallery

This is the first major facelift for the EcoSport since it was unveiled in 2012.

Customer feedback has helped the EcoSport retain the tailgate mounted spare.

The bonnet has a nice ‘power bulge’ in the centre, along with larger headlamps with projector elements and a new LED daytime running lamp signature.

New front seats wider and softer to suit larger frames; leather on top-spec cars.

Back seat still high-set with a long squab.

You now get Isofix child seat mounts on the top-spec variant.

Dials clear but look a bit too ordinary.

Some hard plastics and gaps remain.

Ambient lighting with 7 colours.

Unfortunately, no rear AC vent.

Heavily redesigned dashboard transforms the interior, most new bits are quality too.

New Sync 3 touchscreen is best around; smartphone-slick with brilliant graphics.

New 1.5-litre, 3 cyl ‘Dragon’ petrol motor is incredibly refined and has plenty of grunt low down.

Flip-up seat squabs let you free up a bit more storage space in the boot.

New 17in alloys give it a great stance.

Tailgate still opens on the ‘wrong’ side.
