Due to its standard all-wheel-drive, the 2022 Ford EcoSport at Taylor Ford will be among the most shopped small SUVs in the segment. It might be small in stature, but the Ford EcoSport delivers great performance, given that it is also rated to do some towing activities, unlike its rivals. The EcoSport is offered with some changes in this new model, including the new all-wheel-drive system and a new turbo-four engine.
A four-cylinder turbocharged engine with 166 horsepower powers the 2022 EcoSport. Accompanying the engine is a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel-drive system. From the powertrain setup above, it is evident that the new EcoSport will be impressive in any driving scenario, and the standard all-wheel-drive plays a big part.
Not only does its small stature enable it to maneuver easily in tight places like parking lots and urban centers, but also its crisp steering wheel, which contributes to the composed handling. This new Ford EcoSport feels stable in harsh road conditions and offers a comfortable ride because of the standard drivetrain that ensures the vehicle is glued to the asphalt.
Even with the standard all-wheel-drive system, this subcompact SUV still records good gas mileage ratings. It records 29 mpg and 23 mpg on the highway and city, respectively. Also, it has a towing capacity of 2,000 pounds.
The interior suggests a vehicle highly suited for teenagers, but adults will also find it comfortable, mainly the front row. There is more spacious legroom and headroom in the first row than in the second row. However, the outward visibility in each row is pleasing. Cloth upholstery and manually adjustable driver's seat is standard, but there are more upscale options to consider, such as power adjustments, leather upholstery, and heated front seats. The setup for the child car seat is offered in the second row, and it involves the pairing of two LATCH connectors and a tether anchor. The cargo area measures 20 cubic feet and even more when the rear seats are folded, making it a vehicle that can accommodate luggage when traveling.
In addition to the features mentioned above, the interior of this new SUV also features an intuitive infotainment system that brings several tech features that will enhance an enjoyable driving experience from Allen Park to Romulus, MI. Only the lower trim level gets a 4.2-inch display that features a Wi-Fi hotspot and Bluetooth connection. When you check the rest of the trims, you will get an 8-inch touchscreen that uses the latest SYNC 3 software. Unlike the 4-inch center display, the 8-inch touchscreen features several apps, such as Apple CarPlay, satellite radio, Android Auto, HD radio, and a navigation system. An audio system is also included, whereas push-button start and automatic climate control are optional.
The 2022 EcoSport comes standard with a backup camera, common in most vehicles. The camera gives the driver a good view of the rear while reversing. An airbag system is also standard. The system holds a variety of airbags that fill the cabin in case of a collision, preventing severe injuries to the passengers. Another safety tech is the roll stability control, designed to keep the vehicle stable by reducing any loss of traction. Other safety amenities you can consider are blind-spot monitoring, parking sensors, rear cross-traffic alert, and forward collision warning, which can be accompanied by automatic emergency braking since they tend to work together in most cases.
