Ford announced today it will kick off the sale of the brand new EcoSport SUV on Facebook with a special Limited Edition model fitted with an exclusive Ford SYNC AppLink package, 17-inch alloy wheels and leather trim.
Only 500 Limited Edition EcoSports will be built, of which 120 right-hand-drive models will be sold on the UK market. The special edition model comes with Titanium X Pack, SYNC with AppLink, Rear Parking Sensors, Panther Black Metallic Paint and up to three free apps. The mini SUV can be had with either the 1.0-liter EcoBoost petrol engine (125 HP) or the company’s 1.5-liter diesel unit (91 HP).

British customers can reserve Limited Edition EcoSport models, which are priced from £16,995, on a dedicated website by following a link from Facebook. The ordering process can be completed at any of the UK’s 530 official Ford dealers upon receipt of a special reservation voucher.

“EcoSport will be like nothing else on the road in Europe – a rugged-looking, affordable, and surprisingly spacious SUV with the truly innovative SYNC AppLink technology, which allows drivers to voice-control all kinds of great apps like Spotify and Audioteka,” said Roelant de Waard, vice president, marketing, sales and service at Ford Europe. “EcoSport appeals to a younger, more connected generation so it’s fitting we are offering the EcoSport Limited Edition for sale through Facebook.”

UK deliveries of the Ford EcoSport Limited Edition and Titanium version are scheduled to commence next spring.
