According to the latest car news, the company also gave a confirmation that the Philippine-spec Ford EcoSport 2018 will be powered by a 1.0L EcoBoost engine. And it is claimed to feature the same output as the Vietnamese-spec model which is capable of cranking out 125 ho and 170 Nm of torque.

So now, what we have is a 1.0L EcoBoost model that will hit our shores very soon. Is it strong enough to go head to head with local heavyweights like the Mazda CX-3, Suzuki Vitara and the Nissan Juke? Let's just wait and see!
