what i dont like about the Ecosport is the spare tire cover parang pangit tignan mas maganda kung di masyado boxy or kahit yung canvas na spare tire or kahit wla ng spare tire mas gwapo tignan
reached 1000 KMs. in 10 days mostly highway driving tarlac to quezon ave, greenhills, moa. and experienced stop and go traffic,, di naman sya jerky, baka tlaga driver factor talagameron kase syang 2-3 sec delay after braking, tested it many times parang yung hill ascent/descent assist, pati sa stand still na flat surface gumagana padin, tendency kaya jerky they would step the gas pedal from a stop and go traffic dba, so far ok naman driving nya after 1000km then try mo sya hatawin 2500-3000k rpm dun ung hatak nya, remember it is a 1.5 displacement car and AT sya,, coming from a civic EK, montero and alterra, mejo nag adjust lang ako nung una, kala ko nga din underpowered,, pero akyat ako next week manaoag and baguio and i'll keep you posted guys! cheers!!

Got also our ecosport last saturday and drove it from manila to bicol yesterday, so far i agree with *silverworx's observation regarding acceleration na ma eenjoy mo sya at open roads.
I was also wondering since nasa break-in period pa, hindi kaya sakal pa, or naka program pa na hindi pwede sa abrupt rpm change,
Sa first gear parang til 2k rpm, lang then the higher the gear the higher the rpm allowed, maybe its just me but thats my observation.
But was able to drive it at 120kph though
Smooth ang acceleration but it will get to speed, ngayon pahinga muna sya

Maybe they remove the limiter on the unit or sumthing, were you able to get the rpm before the redzone?
Ours is at 500+ kms so sandali na lang before the 1k pms,

mga bro pa post naman po ng experience nyo kung may nakaakyat na ng baguio on eco titanium thanks.
Ok naman sa rough roads kayang kaya. Mas confident kesa sa kotse.. no problem sa overtaking. Mabilis naman sa rektahan.
Kung sa akyatan, kelangan mo paabutin ng 3k rpm para hindi ka mabitin. Syempre iba namankasi ang hatak ng diesel engine.
Kung sa rektahan, pwede nang a little over 2k rpm.

sa MT wala ako masyado concern sa AT lang ang worry ko lalo na sa akyatan at paahon kasi 1.5 gas engine lang sya. sana may makapagbigay ng experience kung may naka try na iakyat ng baguio ang ecosport (AT).
Tsikoteers,
My older brother plans to buy a Trend AT unit when he goes back for vacation next month. Pahelp lang ako if may SA kayo na kilala na madaling kausap, preferrably walang DI (kung meron pang ganun). Thanks.
Napansin ko lang ung mabibigat ung doors ng ecosport. Solid na solid ung bigat nya. Positive naman un ibig sabihin mas safe ka sa collision.

pano ba humihingi ng DI yung SA's niyo? Ako kasi, although hindi pa ako bumibili, hindi namin napaguusapan ng SA yan. Kelan ba nila hinihingi yan?
Doublepost.
