JAKARTA - Ford is rumored to be returning its old name to its newest ranks, one of which is EcoSport which was injected dead in 2022. Moreover, currently, the manufacturer does not yet have a small-dimensional crossover at an affordable price.

According to a report by Motor.Es written by Top Gear Philippines, Tuesday, May 14, the manufacturer with the nickname Blue Oval will revive the model in 2025. The report says the model will be assembled at the Valencia, Spain plant.

Thus, the latest Ford EcoSport will be rivals to Dacia Duster on the blue continent. In Europe, Duster has a strong influence on the small budget crossover class, a segment Ford also wants.

Another interesting thing is that the model will be offered in a hybrid powertrain. However, the company will also present a turbocharged option with a lower capacity engine.

Currently, there is no new picture of this model in the form of a prototype being tested. It is likely that the public will soon find out its form in the middle or end of 2025.

Some time ago, a leaked patent photo was likely to become the new EcoSport. However, Ford is still silent about the news.

This SUV-type car once graced Indonesia's road in 2014. This car is offered with a 1.5 liter gasoline engine with a manual to automatic transmission option.

Ford decided to stop production of EcoSport in 2022 due to the factory closure in Chennai, India, where the SUV was produced.

Even though it has been stopped, this car can still be owned in used conditions in Indonesia. Based on VOI's monitoring on the mobile purchase site, the 2014 Ford EcoSport can be obtained at a price of IDR 85 million until the most expensive reaches IDR 122 million.
