Rap music artist DJ Khaled said in a Snapchat video posted last Wednesday that he will present the world premiere of the Ford EcoSport on Monday (14 November, 2016). Audience casting and fan engagement agency 1iota has confirmed on its website that new model will debut with the punchline "Go Small, Live Big".
The Ford EcoSport is one of the four new SUV nameplates the Blue Oval has confirmed to introduce in the next four years in the USA.
Changes on the 2017 Ford EcoSport are well documented in our earlier articles. The Fiesta-based crossover will feature new front and rear fascias with details coming off the Ford Edge. Inside, the EcoSport will receive a new dashboard, SYNC3 infotainment system and new cabin materials. Under the bonnet, a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder petrol engine will assume duty paired to an AWD system.
