How many gallons does a Ford EcoSport tank hold?
The Ford EcoSport typically carries about 13.5 gallons (roughly 51 liters) of fuel in its tank, with minor variations by model year, trim, and regional market.
Understanding the tank size and its variability
Tank capacity for the EcoSport is generally in the 13.2–13.7 gallon range depending on the version and market. Official documentation and owner reports show small differences across model years and regions, so for an exact figure you should reference the owner’s manual or the vehicle’s door jamb sticker.
Typical capacity by market and year
Before listing the common figures, note that these are approximate values based on Ford specifications and typical configurations. Actual capacity can vary slightly.
- US market EcoSport (early models, roughly 2013–2017): about 13.5 gallons (51 L).
- US market EcoSport (later years, roughly 2018–2023/2024): about 13.6 gallons (≈51.5 L).
- Other markets (Europe, Latin America, Asia): commonly 50–52 liters (13.2–13.7 gallons).
In practice, exact capacity should be confirmed via the owner's manual or the vehicle’s sticker, as there can be small variations by trim and production run.
Estimating driving range from tank capacity
To estimate how far you can drive on a full tank, multiply the fuel capacity by the vehicle’s miles-per-gallon (MPG) figure for your engine and driving conditions. Use EPA ratings or your real-world MPG from recent fill-ups as a guide, and remember that conditions can change the actual range.
- Identify the exact tank capacity for your EcoSport (approx. 13.5 gallons, with minor year-to-year variation).
- Determine your MPG (EPA combined rating or your own recent average).
- Calculate range: gallons × MPG (for example, 13.5 gallons × 28 MPG ≈ 378 miles).
- Account for real-world factors such as city vs. highway driving, terrain, weather, and load, which can lower the practical range.
These steps provide a practical estimate for planning trips, though your actual range may differ based on driving style and conditions.
Summary
The EcoSport’s fuel tank holds about 13.5 gallons on most US-spec models, with small variations by year and market (roughly 13.2–13.7 gallons). For precise figures, refer to the owner’s manual or the door sticker. To gauge how far you can go on a tank, multiply the capacity by your MPG and adjust for real-world driving conditions.
