The EcoSport does not offer the option of a diesel automatic variant. The 1-liter turbo petrol doesn't come in the automatic guise either.

In all, the EcoSport is presented in four trim levels and eight exterior color options. Bookings will start in June, but no doughnut for you today if you're asking the launch date. Tentatively the EcoSport is expected to be on sale in mid-June for 7-9 lakh rupees.
