    It’s the same story on the inside – you won’t call it luxurious with its fabric seats shades of grey, but it’s certainly not cheap. What you will miss is a tachometer and the screen on the centre console that’s been replaced by a cubbyhole. 
     
     
    So what this EcoSport is, is a well-judged product. For its price, it is well equipped and retains the basic EcoSport traits of being a nice-riding, tidy handling pseudo-SUV. Sure, the engine could use a bit more grunt but apart from that, the Ambiente comes across as an honest product that has lots of appeal. Now only if dealers would start taking bookings again.
