The All New Ford Eco-Sport

[AG4]

Based sa mga complaints and issues na nabasa ko online pinapareset nalang nila yung computer ng PS, 50:50 lang rin ang chance na magiging ok yung transmission after that, tapos minsan pag nawala na bumabalik lang ule, so rereset lang ule ganon.

They usually update the software of the Powershift transmission in older models, new models supposedly have the latest updated software.

Mga sir newbie lang po ako. Im having a difficult decision po kasi, im torn between the two; toyota vios G AT or ecosport Trend AT. I want an automatic transmission po kasi because of the traffic, the only downside i can see from the ecosport AT is the gear hunting. Is the issue about ford poweshift(gear hunting)resolve na po ba?

I'm from Pampanga. Tanong ko lng kung may nakasubok na ng after-sale services sa Ford Pampanga? OK ba sila o mas recommended na bumili na lng ng unit sa ibang Dealer?

sa pag update ng software sure kaya magiging ok na sya?

[cktlcmd]

Sa akin... sa DIESEL version ng Ecosport ang aantayin ko... sana nga dalhin din nila dito

You wont really notice a difference in terms of reduced gear hunting or lag improving. The fiesta and ecosport are built for economy, not speed regardless of what the name would suggest (Fiesta Sport, EcoSport).

As Jeremy Clarkson put it about the fiesta's horsepower: we are not talking stallions here. What they mean is Shetland pony power. This means that overtaking anything is simply impossible. An exaggeration of sorts, but for leisurely driving the DCT of the fiesta and most likely the ecosport will do. Flooring it will just simply waste fuel. Get the manual or maybe the AT version if you want more direct control. The DCT at least for the fiesta prefers slow deliberate acceleration.

The new Fiesta and EcoSport Powershift has a Sport (manual) mode so you can hold the gears longer.

I prefer the manual transmission model though, my family and I have always preferred doing our own gear shifting.

Sir AG4, asking for your opinion...

My company car plan allows me to replace my car every 7 years only. (instead of 5 yrs which was the previous policy).

Is Ecosport Trend MT a good buy that would last for 7 years?

The Ecospost really looks good and I think it will perform well.

I think it should be ok since a lot of its mechanicals were carried-over from the Fiesta.
...but it's always safer to test drive one first before making your final decision.
