The Ford EcoSport is everywhere, and buyers fell in love with the EcoSport right from the start. It was one of the first compact SUVs to become hugely popular and many manufacturers jumped on the compact SUV bandwagon because of it, and for this very reason, it hasn't undergone any major work except for spec updates and a few stylistic enhancements like the Black Styling Package (see below).

Verdict
Yes, the Ford EcoSport still offers good value, but does it offer the best of all? No, you will find many other compact SUVs from the stables of Kia, Volkswagen, Hyundai, and even Mahindra (XUV300) that offer better value. Some of my personal favourites include the VW T-Cross, Suzuki Vitara and Vitara Brezza, Kia Sonet, Peugeot 2008, and Renault Duster. But in the end, it comes down to your love of the Ford brand as well. Those with a penchant for the Blue Oval will love the EcoSport with all their hearts, even if it isn't the biggest, most powerful, or most technologically advanced.
