Ford Eco Sport DC Design to be out by January – Renault Duster in trouble, Price hike to be around Rs. 3.5 – 5 lakhs
Ford Eco Sport is one of the most discussed Sports Utility Vehicles in the Indian market as well as in the global markets too this year. Though the model is having a huge fan base all over the world due to its massive fuel efficiency with a good piece of performance. But the only factor that makes the model lag behind by a bit is, looks. As per the responses from valued customers and expert reviews, Eco Sport does not possess an appealing look when compared with rival models of the same segment.
In order to make it ‘perfect’, ‘DC Design’ has brought forward a new design package for the compact SUV. The teaser images of the DC design were revealed over web few days ago and they are making a lot of buzz over web. Though nothing has been confirmed officially so far, we could expect the package to be available with Eco Sport for sale very soon. Most of the specifications of the Eco Sport SUV will remain the same even after applying the DC Design package and all the changes which will be applied as a part of the package are purely cosmetic.
As we can observe from the teaser images of the DC Design Eco Sport SUV, the front fascia has been changed completely when compared with the base variant. With the addition of a new set of LED day time running lights in place of the old fashioned head lamps, the look of the vehicle has become absolutely aggressive. A set of head lamps are located on the brand new bumper fitted on the front along with a new front grille. As nothing is going to change under the hood, we can expect the performance and fuel efficiency to remain unchanged.
The brand new DC Design Eco Sport is a 2+2 seated variant and there is no other choice for the buyer to increase the seating capacity. The front passenger seat can be folded if required to create much space for the feet of the rear passenger. The rear seats can be adjusted electronically and a new infotainment replaced the former one. With some more significant changes to the interior, Ford is not going to compromise at any instance in quality making and thus we could expect a noticeable price hike for the DC Design Eco Sport SUV.
