It introduces several upgrades that accentuate EcoSport's design, enhance customer convenience and improve the driving dynamics of our compact SUV."

Some of the upgraded features on the Ford EcoSport Platinum Edition are the dual-tone colour scheme for the body (A blacked out roof), 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped with wider tyres and appliques for front and rear bumpers. Step inside and you will find that there is an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system that has satellite navigation and a reverse parking camera as well.

The Ford EcoSport diesel has a claimed fuel efficiency of 22.27 kmpl and the 1.0-litre EcoBoost variant has a claimed efficiency of 18.88 kmpl.
