The TOTL Ecosport is priced at 988k. For less than 100k more, you can get yourself a bigger vehicle, more refined, and offers much better performance.
Agree with this one. Ford's reliability issues are overblown. My good friend's 2006 Focus is still running well (not an ecoboost though), and besides replacing wear and tear parts, still no mechanical issues.

I haven't heard of any recent issues from the blue oval besides the Ecosport/Fiesta DCT and the Ranger's turbo. This bad rep just tends to spillover to the rest of the lineup.

Much bigger, safer, and overall better car than the Ecosport while getting similar fuel consumption.
