The Next-Generation of Ford EcoSport can be launched in the mid of 2021.

EcoSport is probably not an unfamiliar model to Ford customers worldwide, even with the exit of many old sedan and hatchback models from the market, EcoSport suddenly becomes one of the oldest names of the Blue Oval. The current generation of Ford EcoSport has been launched since 2012 and the small-sized SUV really needs a thorough improvement to be able to compete against new competitors who are more modern, more convenient, and have more functions than ever.

According to AutoIndustriya, the 3rd generation of EcoSport has been captured test-driving many times in India with a breakthrough body compared to the previous generation. However, the picture captures the most detailed feature of the American SUV, which is only the front area where a wide, horizontal radiator appears with 3 LED lights in the side corner – most likely daylight, while headlights are set lower at the bottom corner.

Meanwhile, the Indian press confirmed that the new EcoSport will use the chassis of its partner – Mahindra and some components supplied by Mahindra, making this generation become the first joint projects of the Ford – Mahindra coalition. This change, if it can happen, can help reduce the EcoSport price quite a lot – this is a significant factor in increasing the competitiveness of American cars in the segment with many competitors such as Hyundai Kona, Kia Seltos …

Apart from EcoSport, Ford – Mahindra also plans to launch an additional C-seg SUV and an MPV in Asia. As for the 3rd generation EcoSport, it is expected to launch in the first half of 2021.
