A couple of spyshots of the China-spec Ford EcoSport with a facelifted exterior has emerged online. The changes could be exclusive to the China-spec Ecosport, which will be manufactured at Changan's plant in Hangzhou, China.

The EcoSport facelift will reportedly launch in early-2017.

The front-end is completely covered, although upon closer inspection, it appears to feature new headlamps, a revised grille, and large foglamp housings with turn indicators. It is expected to draw design influence from the new Ford Edge and Ford Kuga crossovers. The rear-end will not get an externally-mounted spare wheel, similar to the Euro-spec model.
