Ford EcoSport Gets a Raptor-Like face at the Sao Paulo Auto Show

Ford-EcoSport-Storm-Concept-0-tile

At the Sao Paulo Auto Show, a Ford South American design team has showcased their cool customization potential of the EcoSport SUV. The one that will probably garner your attention is the EcoSport Storm concept, inspired by the F-150 Raptor pickup as seen on the picture above. Just like the high-performance truck, the EcoSport study features black Ford lettering in the grille and a more masculine design.

Other distinctive design details are the “Blue Storm” paint with black and silver accents, as well as the special graphics on the sides. Riding on 215/75 R15 off-road tyres, the EcoSport Storm also gets extended wheel arches and a front engine guard. Both the EcoSport Storm and F-150 Raptor almost look alike don’t you think?

The other two Ford EcoSport concepts explore the theme of “Beauty and the Beast” (picture above), with designers aiming to highlight the contrast between luxury and sportiness. Can you figure which is Beauty and which one is the Beast?

Yep, the one on your left is called the EcoSport Beauty. It features a special paint in matte metallic “Copper Stardust”, graphics and contrasting details, black roof, LED fog lights and 18-inch wheels with low profile tyres size 235/40 R18. The interior has four individual leather seats, DVD screens in the headrests and a multimedia system with GPS.

The EcoSport Beast on your right on the other hand, features pearlescent “Speed White” paint with contrasting details in blue and orange, a three bar grille, fog lamps with four LEDs and 18-inch alloy wheels with 235/60 R18 tyres. The study also features an air intake on the roof with additional lighting LEDs. Inside, the rear seats are replaced by bike racks.
