The Ford Ecosport, Ford's smallest SUV, first arrived in Japan in June of last year. Based on the "B-car platform," similar to the Ford Fiesta, it is powered by a 1.5-liter engine, delivering a maximum output of 82 kW (111 ps) and a peak torque of 140 Nm (14.3 kgm).


Its design, which reflects the next-generation global design theme "New Global Design Language," an evolution of the "Kinetic Design" theme, is characterized by its solid, sculpted form. It is sold in approximately 100 countries, including Japan, and can be considered a symbol of Ford's "One Ford" initiative.
