Ford EcoSport SUV
Ford has  revealed a Fiesta-based small SUV, called the EcoSport. The new model  will make its debut in India at the Delhi Auto Expo tomorrow, although a  special launch event will also be held in Brasilia, Brazil -  emphasising that this is a model aimed primarily at emerging markets.
It will be sold  in the UK too, and in over 100 countries worldwide, making this the  latest addition to the One Ford global car line-up, which already  includes the new Focus, Fiesta and Kuga.
The EcoSport  marks a milestone for Ford, as the first global model to be designed and  developed entirely by its South American team.
The  first-generation Ford EcoSport, based on the Ford Fusion and developed  by Ford South America in 2003, went on to sell more than 700,000 units  as a regional product - hence why Ford has such high-hopes for this new  model.
The styling is  clearly derived from the Fiesta, but uses a bold front grille, slimmer  more detailed headlights and plastic cladding on the side sills and  bumpers to increase road presence while mainting the same footprint on  the road as a Fiesta.
