Ford’s EcoSport has consistently featured in South Africa’s monthly ranking of the top 10 selling passenger cars since its launch in 2013, and with good reason!
Ford has found the perfect recipe to combine sturdy SUV functionality with unrivalled city car practicality, designed to make every day a little simpler.
The new Ford Ecosport is designed for all the courageous, young-at-heart people, who love writing their own stories. The ones who don't wait for something to happen and don’t just sit around looking at how others are living their lives. They go out there and create a life of adventure, seeing every day as a blank page with an opportunity to fill it with what they enjoy doing. They’re writing their own journey and looking forward to sharing it with the people around them.
The Ecosport line-up includes:
1) Taking pride in leading fuel economy with the line-up now starting with a 1.5 litre Ti-VCT 3-cylinder 91kW petrol engine with a claimed combined fuel average of 6.4 litres per 100 km and only comes in a 5-speed manual transmission (available in Ambiente).
2) The award-winning 1.0 litre EcoBoost 3-cylinder 92 kW turbocharged petrol engine with an average of 5.4 litres per 100 km in the 6-speed manual version and 6.3 litres per 100 km in the 6-speed automatic transmission (available in Trend and Titanium).

With a bold new exterior design, the Ecosport always looks all set and ready for a good time.

Even though the Ecosport doesn’t have a 4x4 option, it still has something to offer when it comes to water crossing, which can come in very handy especially areas that are prone to flooding.

The All New Ford Figo!
If you’ve decided to buy a new vehicle, then the chances are, value for money and reliability are some of your primary concerns. But, thankfully with the all new Ford Figo, you also don’t have to compromise on comfort, safety features, driving dynamics, and good looks. So we definitely think this vehicle should be at the top of your list of vehicles for taking out for a test drive.
Starting at under R200k, it represents the entry point to the Ford brand in the South African market. We can also boast about the Figo being consistently one of the country’s best-sellers in the budget car segment. In 2019 Ford launched the new, funky Figo Blu, with its distinctive sporty Blu good looks, for those who dare to be different and stand out.
Based on the 1,5 Trend hatchback model, the Figo Blu can easily be distinguished from the standard Figo by a number of model-specific styling enhancements. Most noticeably is the exterior sports black roof, black mesh grille, black mirror housings, and black multi-spoke 15-inch alloy wheels, with eye-catching blue accents, inside and out.
All five-door hatchback and four-door sedan models, including the Figo Blu, come with driver and passenger airbags, ABS brakes with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), remote central locking, electric front windows with one-touch operation on the driver’s side, a factory-fitted immobiliser, electric power-assisted steering, tilt adjustment for the steering column, headlight level adjustment, a built-in Ford Audio unit with an integrated display, Bluetooth connectivity, a USB slot, and Ford’s unique Device Dock for connecting and powering smartphone devices.
All Figo models are powered by Ford’s latest-generation 1.5-litre three-cylinder petrol engine. And all come standard with Ford Protect, comprising a four-year/120,000km comprehensive warranty, three-year/unlimited distance roadside assistance, and a five-year/unlimited km corrosion warranty. A four-year/60,000km service plan is included, with 15,000km service intervals.

With the arrival of our new Dealer Principal, Mr Oscar Mashavha adjusting to the rapid and exciting transformations about to and that have already taken place were smooth and simple. His youthful, yet professional approach to conducting business has really given our dealership – CMH Kempster Ford Pretoria a brand new look and direction.
His favourite saying, “there is always room for innovation and colour brilliance” was put into practice in the last few weeks. Road markings were revived and painted by him personally. The previous billboards were redesigned without forgetting and blotting out their origins - and put up giving our dealership a fresh look as well as giving customers a clear indication where to go for which department.
He not only prioritizes the happiness of his employees but as he refers to them as his “colleagues”; Oscar Mashavha being the true Team Leader that he is, made sure that the staff vehicles have secure parking in case of hail, excessive sunlight, theft etc. If you have met our Dealer Principal in person, you will see that his persistent need for a clean and neat working environment is reciprocated through his dress sense as well – neat, clean and very professional.
Though it is a side walk, our Dealer Principal constantly urges that it too be cleaned as it is at our entrance; as is our fully stocked and neatly parked and advertised Pre-Owned Vehicle Sales showroom with over 70% Pre-Owned Ford vehicles. We at CMH Kempster Ford Pretoria take pride in our dealership and its constant change. Pop in to our dealership to view a range of new and used car vehicles suited to you. You are guaranteed friendly and prompt service from our sales executives.
CMH Kempster FORD Pretoria
For about two weeks every summer between 1914 and 1924, a group of friends who called themselves the Four Vagabonds would climb into their Model Ts and hit the open road, travelling to some of the United States' most scenic areas, stopping off and setting up overnight camps along the way.
But these weren't your average Americans. They were none other than Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, Harvey Firestone, and John Burroughs. And the motorcade of up to 50 vehicles, which transported the celebrity Vagabonds, sometimes their wives, their household staff, and all the equipment they could possibly need for a comfortable holiday, was captured by Ford Motor Company photographers.
These high profile 'glamping' adventures undertaken by pre-eminent members of society fired public imagination. And the phenomenon of road tripping as an affordable way for ordinary families to satisfy their wanderlust soon spread to other parts of the world, including South Africa.
With almost 750,000km of roads criss-crossing the country - the tenth largest road network globally according to the South African National Roads Agency Limited (SANRAL), and by far the largest on the continent - it's no wonder road tripping has become such a popular way for generations of South Africans to vacation.
Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa believes that the four pioneers of the original American road trip would whole-heartedly approve of the following tips for modern motorists wanting to get the most out of their own family road trips today.
Burroughs
As a naturalist and nature essayist, active in the US conservation movement, John Burroughs would advise you to use the unique opportunity of a road trip to discover and explore places of natural beauty, as a chance to learn more about the geological and cultural history of places you haven't been before.
Whilst planning your route, look up the tourist attractions you'll be passing along the way and incorporate the most appealing ones into your itinerary. Many of the newly constructed hotels of yesteryear are still in business as historic B&B tourism destinations today, and breaking up long trips into smaller chunks - with one or two overnight stays en route to your destination, interspersed with some sightseeing - not only reduces driving fatigue and back seat boredom, but makes for a much more enjoyable and memorable holiday.
The Automobile Association of South Africa (AA) recommends reserving overnight accommodation in advance, especially during peak travel periods like Easter.
Firestone
As the founder of the Firestone Tire and Rubber Company, one of the first global makers of automobile tyres, Harvey Firestone would advise you to have your car's wheel balancing and alignment checked before heading off, to ensure a smooth and safe trip, and not to forget to check the condition of your spare tyre too. Punctures happen to the best of us, at the worst of times. Just remember, spare tyres aren't designed for long distances or high speeds, so once you have replaced a punctured tyre with the spare, you need to visit a tyre technician to fix or replace the original tyre as soon as possible.
You should only do a final tyre pressure check once your car is fully loaded, and when the tyres are still cool. The optimal tyre pressures, which you'll find printed on a sticker inside your driver's door, will help improve vehicle safety and maintain fuel efficiency.
Edison
A world renowned inventor whose name is synonymous with the electric light bulb, Thomas Edison was also the self-appointed navigator on the Vagabonds' adventures, with nothing but a compass and a handful of atlases to guide the motorcade!
His advice to the modern day road tripper would be to familiarise yourself with all the marvellous tech features of your car, and take full advantage of navigation apps like Google Maps and Waze, accessed either on your smartphone or your car's built-in infotainment system, like Ford's cutting edge SYNC 3 *. For parents travelling with small kids, a visual display showing estimated travel and arrival time could even be the silver bullet you've been searching for to silence the age-old "Are we there yet?" chorus from the back seat.
Ford
And last but certainly not least, captain of industry, business magnate, and founder of the Ford Motor Company himself, Henry Ford would advise you to make sure your car is in tip-top shape before hitting the open road. Be sure to take it in for a thorough inspection at your local dealership, where they will check all the necessary parts for damage and replace them if necessary, so your car can perform at maximum efficiency.
Also visit the AA's website for a list of Toll Fees and Toll Plaza Locations, as well as a current Road Conditions Report, which gives you a heads up on any road works that may be taking place, which could result in detours or delays to your journey.
At CMH Kempster Ford Randburg we care about your safety and that of your family. Take care on your travels this festive season and stay safe. Take your time and enjoy the adventure.
