Like a pit bull terrier, the EcoSport has a small but muscular body that stands tall. While its pint-sized dimensions compromise practicality, they also improve maneuverability.

Exterior Dimensions

The EcoSport is the shortest and tallest competitor in this set. Its small footprint does make it easy to maneuver in tight spaces, but the small size affects interior space for both passengers and cargo.

Exterior Features

The EcoSport lineup has consistent styling cues such as a hexagonal front grille, slanted headlights, pronounced wheel arches, and-of course-an uncommon rear swing gate. The latter can be equipped with a cool rear-mounted spare tire, but it’s only available on the base model. Exterior upgrades such as larger 17-inch wheels (16s are standard), chrome molding, front LED accent lights, passive entry, and a power sunroof are only available on the more expensive trims. The SES is the EcoSportiest, with unique taillights and black exterior features.
