What is the ground clearance of the Ford trend?

Ground clearance is not a single fixed figure for the Ford Trend because the label was used across several models and markets. Depending on whether you’re looking at a small hatchback or a compact SUV, the ride height changes. Here’s what you need to know and representative figures for common Trend variants.


Context: The Trend name across Ford's lineup


The Ford "Trend" designation functions as a trim level rather than a single model. It has appeared on multiple vehicles in different regions, including light hatchbacks and SUV-style models. Each model has its own chassis geometry, suspension tuning and wheel options that influence ground clearance.


The figures below are representative for popular Trend trims, but exact numbers vary by year, market, and wheel/tire configuration. Always check the official brochure or your vehicle’s data plate for your exact specification.



  • Ford EcoSport Trend — approximately 210 mm of ground clearance. This SUV-style height helps with rough roads and speed bumps common in many markets.

  • Ford Figo Trend — typically around 165–174 mm, depending on model year and market specifications. The hatchback’s smaller footprint yields a lower height than the EcoSport.

  • Ford Fiesta Trend — roughly around 170 mm (varies by year and equipment). The Fiesta’s compact design sits between lower subcompact and higher compact heights.


Note: exact measurements vary by year, trim specifics, and wheel/tire packages. Always consult the official brochure or the vehicle’s data plate for your exact specification.


How to verify your specific Ford Trend ground clearance


To be certain, consult the exact model’s official specifications. Look up the owner’s manual, the dealer’s brochure, or Ford’s official country site for your configuration. If you already own the vehicle, you can measure the clearance by placing the car on a flat surface and measuring the distance from the ground to the lowest point of the undercarriage.


Summary


There is no single ground clearance value for the Ford Trend. It varies by model and market; EcoSport Trend is typically around 210 mm, while Figo Trend and Fiesta Trend sit lower, generally in the 165–174 mm range. Always confirm the exact figure for your specific vehicle configuration.
