Ford EcoSport : What's Right What's Wrong : PowerDrift 

Hey #NotificationSquad, let us know below what do you think about the new EcoSport! And here's a compact SUV shootout - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x1iTS750Yc0.html

Top 10 Features present in Ecopsort and missing from Brezza: 1. Electronic Stability Program (save lives on highway, for safe turning) 2. Traction Control System (saves you in slippery/muddy/wet/snowy roads) 3. Break Assist (intelligent braking system) 4. Typre Pressure Monitoring system (So that you don't burst your tyre on a highway in summer. Indian weather you know!) 6. Six Airbags (People sitting behind matters too) 7. Hill Hold Control and Hill Assist (So that hill doesn't scare you newbies) 8. Both Android Auto & Apple Car play (Android Auto is yet to come in Brezza) with better screen resolution and User Interface. 9. Greater Build Quality (thuding sound when the door closes.) 10. Tail Mounted Spare Wheel (Swag!) Most of these features doesn't even come in a car segment above. And lets not forget that the top 6 on the list are LIFE SAVING features. So.. At any day.. Ecosport Titanium+ (for just an additional ~1.25 lakh) is way better than Brezza ZDI+. - Hemant Drive Safe!

Great Review. But personally after driving Brezza and Eco Sport old model it took 2 mins to take my decision, I opted for Eco Sport. Apart from 2nd row seat space I have nothing to complain. It is far better than Brezza when it comes to driving experience and handling. Also we always miss the build quality part. Here Eco Sport is far superior. I can write this on a stamp paper as in our family we have both the cars.

i am driving the new 2017 diesel ecosport titanium plus variant and i am loving every bit of it from cruise control to the handling to the plushness of the cabin... i am feeling like driving a product from audi or merc or BMW after getting behind the wheel really very satisfied with the vehicle in all aspects! even if rear ac vents are missing the cooling is so good that it cools the cabin in less than 15 mins in hottest summer!

If you take the brezza on the highway its like driving a scooty with a body of a 4 wheeler, pretty smooth, will get you there, oh lets say someday. The squeeks and rattles in a maruti are a gift in return you get for your money.

@ Glen : The Automatic version does have a paddle shifter, which was not mentioned in the video. Doesn't that make overtaking in highways easy? And another point I thought was even though Ford Ecosport doesn't have Rear AC vents, I think it has best AC throw among its class and it cools the cabin pretty quickly..

Undoubtedly my favourite is NEXON.... But among the given choices I would blindly chose eco sport not because it looks good or value for money.... But it is much much safer and better than the tin cans from SUZUKI being sold in India under the Maruti badging!!!!!

All you see inside brezza is cheap plastics and quality.. Bought new ecosport and totally satisfied. Although low torque is an issue but I do not cruise on highways much!

Any day n anytime, its the Ecosport...

Sales figures can never tell if a product is better than the other.... India can digest any crap from maruti with s big smile!

Always go fr ford..... No maruti suzuki.... I dont need 2+ milege.. I want to be safe....

Ecosport any day. Even though it costs 1 lakh more than the brezza it's worth the money. First the built quality of ecosport is way superior Second ford Diesel engine is way more powerful and refined. Third safety features like 6 airbags, traction control, hill launch assist Interiors are more premium and sophisticated along with an excellent touch screen music system with 6 speakers and a subwoofer And now ford service and maintainence cost cheaper than maruti so ford ecosport all the way

If budget isnt a concern, i would play safe and go for the ecosport (petrol) and the nexon for diesel. Brezza feels dated now but looks the most like an suv

Anyone thinks of Mickey Mouse when you see NExon ?

EcoSport Diesel Top end, best features and safety in its class. Nothing else I'm using it since one month, had a long trip, love it, as everyone says I haven't observed any body roll, cruse control is amazing every car should have this feature In one sentence It's best value for money

Ecosport anyday. Its one hell of a sub 4mtr beast. Always love that beast. All time favourite in that segment. No other choice.

Well i own a 2015 ecosport and i dont have to explain how much i love it

i HAVE THE ECO SPORT PETROL NEW ONE TRUST ME IN HIGHWAY ITS VERY VERY MATURED THAN ITS COMPETITORS

Ecosport at any given time!! I love driving and i only look at the "Fun to drive" factor in every car.. Eco is far ahead than any of its competition wen it comes to driving pleasure! Generally people stick to a car for 4-6 years or more, and definitely no one (me for sure) would like to stick to a car for that long which is not fun to drive. So, that extra 1 lakh rupees, is definitely worth payin for!

Life comes in a full circle with this video.. Hit the subscribe button for this channel back in the day when the first EcoSport review came. I was impressed then, I’m impressed now. PD is love!

Always ford is the best for engine quality and parts quality is awesome

You forgot to mention paddle shifters which is a unique feature that is not offered in any car in segment today..... It can help with the problem of overtaking that you have.

Bought the new ecosport titanium plus 2017 model today BreZza is cheaper than ecosport and it shows its cheap quality Not a maruti fan ever

Except for the poor back seat space, Ecosport has everything right..

It has been late to participate in the race, but we have to remember.... slow n steady wins the race. 🤔

I have the 1.5 diesel with 100 ps.... To be practical vitara can't be compared to ecosport. Because brezza has small engine with less power and has no pickup and also it feels like driving an swift and as we all knw Marathi is weak in its body and has less safety...my friend owns an brezza and he is not happy with the car... People I prefer to buy the ecosport because it has all the feature with the strong punchier engine....and people don't think that ford maintainance is costliest...it's less and good in class in its service...I only notice 1 thing that if u go for brezza u will realize that u have chosen a wrong 1.... Tq....

The Ford EcoSport will win the war!!😎

Your presentation accent and the flair is perfect....I will go with anything that offers 6 airbags!

Lol wait a minute, did you just compare the Eco Sport to the Brezza? *Cough* *Cough* BULLSHIT *Cough* 😂🤦🏼

EcoSport for Safety, Features in affordable price!!!!#ProudOwner

Thanks for recommending PD! 👍 Have booked Petrol, Auto, Titanium+, hope I have made best choice compare to Brezza n Nexon

A much awaited review from PD team. However, this is too late man. I'm planning to buy one but really miss the reclining rear seat of the previous model. You guys confused me by saying that the brezza is getting a petrol engine but, the Ford motor will anyday be better than Suzuki's petrol motor

I choosed the new ecosport over the Nexon since the handling and power was way better in ecosport than Nexon. And as for brezza it wasnt even in my list since the company lacks on safety measures is what i feel since the other two give you not only a sturdy built quality but all basic safety measures standard. Feel maruti's built to be more plasticky from distance but the real life crashes and crash test proves how vulnerable it can be.

Excellent review as always.... It would be useful if you guys do a review for diesel variant also, At least a 3 or 4 minute video...!! Btw I booked Ecosport diesel, so a bit selfish about diesel review 😉

I found Nexon is more value for money, better looking, powerful yet cheaper to maintain. Wheels of nexon are best looking among these three and overall design too.

I'll choose ecosport for rear mounted spare wheel! Gives muscular look at the same time saves lot of boot space for bassheads like us! I can load my heavy subs and box in the boot and forget about moving it again!

Hi,It would have been nice if the built quality and safety features were compared. Ecosport is one solid car compared to an eggshell like Brezza. But we Indians care about graphics ,mileage and touchscreen rather than 6 airbags.

People in India don't buy what they love, but buy what they Jiju and mausa recommend

Nexon

I don't know but I don't trust Maruti over safety . . .as the build quality of steel is not that great, though it may look muscular but in reality is not. Ford on other hand gives option of six airbags and etc and gives a sense of safety when on road. I would therefore pick Ford over Brezza especially due to safety priorities. Cheers.

I owned ecosport in 2014 and it always gives a smile upon my face when I drive it. Each and every car has its own capabilities I cannot say that ecosport is the best because it's entirely depends upon the customer. So far I drove for 55000kms believe me maintenence cost is little higher than maruti, hyundai but durability of the spare parts are simply amazing. Ford is known for its Rigidity and superb built quality. So it's up to you this is all I can say.

Anyday it is the new Ecosport that takes the sub 4 metre SUV market, because of the build quality and safety. Everyone of us commonly knows that our safety is first important than anything in life. Moreover, ford cabins are very good in cooling capacity since the AC compressor (CC) is highest in capacity for the vehicles in this price point and they does not require any rear ac vents at all.

No comparison of ford with brezza and nexon in terms of driving dynamics and safety. Dear host please don’t misguide people when safety is more important than fancy looks. Maruti sales are only due to ill informed customers they get by selling cheap cars that’s why they are always failed in higher end cars. I always encourage people in my circle for not buying Maruti cars because of safety they provide Correct me if I m wrong.

Ford EcoSport wins here due to its build quality and features as also with practicality 👍🏽

If it was my money, it would be on Nexon

The kind of engine,interiors and drive quality the new ecosport has, Compare it with creta and captur. Brezza and nexon are nowhere close to the ecosport

Eco Sport for driving dynamics

I jave gr8 love n respect for PD... but underestimating and stating Nexon lower.. is not acceptable for me.. for practical usage.. in Indian roads and highways.. Nexon is best suited. Guys like you.. made Brezza hyped.

C’mon Glen!!! It’s Ecosport anytime!!!! A really big no no 👎🏼👎🏼to Brezza buoy!!!

Congratulations for another successful year PD! Happy New year to all..

Ford Ecosport all the way 👍

Other RU-vid videos (360p) but when it comes to #pdarmy i used to switch to 1080p 50fps and the editing is really great keep up the good work

Very good review. Appreciate if you can tone down a bit on the background music, difficult at times to hear what the person has to say.

Just ve a high ride, Ecosports will prove he 's the game. Over 7k kms of highway driving, owning a forturner, a GLA and a Innova, I love the driving dynamics and control that ECOSPORTS is been offering at this price point.

Ecosport because 1. Safety features & built 2. SUV feel in the cabin

It's my money And i will invest in Ecosport 👍

Ecosport TITANIUM PLUS AT इस loaded with features and value for money car. AT is just great. Hassle free drive. If one is looking for luxury in compact SUV, ECOSPORT is the name.

It's not that, that a spare wheel makes a car more SUVish but without the spare wheel the Eco Sport looks typically a large hatchback!!!!!

Every RU-vid channel revieves only top models.This is soo bad, rich people only can afford top variants.Reviewing middle variants can benefit the middle class people.

You need to review the Ecosport S. Review the Diamond White. The smoked HIDs are a killer.

safety and driving pleasure - hence ecosport

The competition is getting bigger day by day for this suv category 👍 nice work PD army !!

I like ecosport more than brazza

How about a Brezza vs Nexon vs EcoSport video?

Vitara Brezza might be a good competitor, but at the end of the day,well,Ford is again, Ford. Henry ford hands down!!

Im really surprised.. You missed paddle shifters? (I think First and only one in this segment ).. But real good video , Only concern why you guys took too much time for review videos after launch of product, And finally for your question (ECO SPORT)

Love EcoSport..!!!

*when it comes to reviews and comparisons of cars, no onw does it better than POWERDRIFT In INDIA* 💯👌🏻🔥 *HATS OFF TO YOU GUYS! YOU PEOPLE PUT A LOT OF EFFORT IN MAKING SUCH CONTENTS POSSIBLE, EXPLAING EVERY ASPECTS FROM TIP TO TOE* *CAMERAMAN TOO, YOU DOES A GREAT JOB EVERY TIME*🔥❤

Ahhhhhhh.... Finally..😎 Thank you Powerdrift.. 👌👍

What one likes in the sub compact SUV will decide which is good for themselves All 3 of them are good but the Most VFM of the lot is Brezza for sure and it shows its VFM nature. The Nexon is little bit more mature VFM package but there are little bit things which Nexon has to accomplish. The best car is Ecosport and it may not seem VFM but it really has a good VFM component. The Nexon looks good has good quality Interiors etc but are they put together well?? Not quite as good as Ecosport. Another area where Nexon clearly is inferior is the petrol motor, ( Fans will tell otherwise) which is not close to the Ecosport. Even the diesel engine and transmission is not as much accomplished as the Euro built Ford's Peugeot partnered TDCi. Just will cite an eg: pull up the rpm to about 4000+ in both Ecosport Nexon and Brezza, then suddenly release the accelerator notice the jerks notice the noise notice the transmission jerks etc, Nexon petrol feels like a alto engine refined little better, Diesel feels far better but still not as good as the a Brezza( Multijet engine with Maruti gearbox has done an excellent job) or the Ecosport. Another reason is the long term reliability with TATA , the perception is changing but still not proven as good as Maruti. So TATA will seem VFM but in my opinion we get only what we pay for. Ecosport is a car which we cannot buy with Head and Mathematics alone it has to be brought with a ❤️ and it will reward in the long run. With improved services and cheaper spare parts from Ford the Ecosport has a good VFM component which is not measurable initially. For those who wanna Drive hard and have a comfy family ride the Ecosport is simply awesome.

What happened with the earlier first drive video of eco sport? 😀missing that one badly. 😀

For me 1 eco sport, 2 nexon, 3 brezza

I want to make a decision on New Verna or New EcoS - (Diesel, Manual), I know these r two diff cars, but if u have to choose only for fun & comfortable to drive, which one will you go for?

Critically underestimated nexon.i personally drove both .nexon is much more fun.

Steering lifted from ford focus is really brilliant ♥️

EcoSport is the best and it is more like an suv look than vitara breeza and nexon.

@PD I have driven the new Ford EcoSport manual, I would say the new three cylinder engine is lot more smoother and powerful enough. According to me, it's always fun to drive #Ford cars, whereas my dad likes to drive his old #Maruti. So you know what I mean 😋

I'LL put my money in TATA NEXON

Nice video Glen... But was a short one;) Excellent review What abt review of the diesel variant Please review the diesel variant as well

Tata nexon is the best

I'd choose the Ecosport over the Brezza. Brezza does not have that "feel good factor" as compared to the Ecosport. Ecosport feels much more plush than the Brezza.I feel quality is compromised on the Brezza. Also the turbo lag in the Brezza makes driving difficult in the city.

Ecosport , the best!

Great one as usual! (Glen needs to freshen up between shots😂😂) #pdarmy

I would say ecosport any time but if I had money for it then only else at the price point of nexon it's simply better secondly I had driven diesel variants of nexon and ecosport(not in petrol and this only my observation NO OFFENCE) I found nexon is more fun to drive then ecosport(in diesal not In petrol) just my opinion and one more thing brezza only sells now due to Maruti batch on it but still its a sensible but considering the resale value

When nexon entered, i just forget ford n brezaa for couple of minutes, its dashing!!

Music too loud. Its like watching a music video🤣🤣🤣

Recently learnt driving, EcoSport titanium petrol MT or honda city V MT, mostly run in small town and highways, plz suggest which to choose or any other model....

Again same problem...why such videos put so loud background music!!! Hard to hear out the voice clearly.

Not much of a car guy,But gave this video a thumbsup Anyway! #PDArmy

Ecosport is just unriaval in compact suv segment..!

EcoSport anyday !!

Tata Nexon

Ecosport 🔥❤️

Ecosport 😎

@powerdrift guys you are the only one channel who is worth watching from Indian media, I bought a Swift Vdi white in 2010, now i am more concerned about my next upgrade, where my priority is primarily cabin insulation, maintanence, rear ac vents, rear leg room, Driving dynamics. I suggest you to do a episode on upgrade stuff for mango ppl

Who else before 1k views.

low rollover resistance (it has got 3 star ratings on rollover)? what do you guys suggest? I was planning to go for the AT, but little concerned now

Shade of black is better than beige , coz beige will one day become black in Indian driving conditions !!

Nexon is the best value in 4m segment🤗

Why the 1990s font in the MID. Along with the plain tacho and speedo dials, it makes the whole instrument cluster horrible to look at. Please Ford, change it soon.
