We might buy a new car within the year and im considering both the ford ecosport and the new honda mobilio automatic variants. Both cars are almost evenly priced at 885k and 877k respectively. We are four in the family, i have 2 small kids pa lang. I will use it primarily for city driving only for daily commute to work from pasig to makati with only me and my wife as passengers. Weekends of course when going to malls, grocery, etc. will be used with the kids and sometimes with the lola.

Both cars have 1.5 liter engines so fuel consumption should be almost the same.

Mobilio is longer and bigger and can seat 7 people but dashboard looks so simple and cheap.

Ecosport has a higher ground clearance and has a little bit more upscale feel than the mobilio.

Maintenance should just be the same for both.

Looks wise, this is subjective but ecosport looks more macho while mobilio looks more like a mommy car although it looks very sporty.

What would you pick?
