It would be unfair to give a verdict here as Ford Ecosport has been discontinued and is not available for sale in the market. On the other hand, In Datsun Go Plus, the refreshed design, standard safety tech and added feel-good features, especially that touchscreen with a punchy engine and the easy to drive nature, makes this car exciting.

Q. I travel around 650km per month, Should i go for petrol or diesel. Also I'm confused between EcoSport and Verna?

Selecting the right fuel type depends on your utility and the average running of the car. If you drive less than 50km in a day then we recommend you to go with a petrol car as they are easy to maintain, have a longer life span and they cost less initially than the diesel car. On the other hand, diesel cars are preferred if the average daily run is more than 50km which makes it a feasible purchase. Diesel cars are more fuel-efficient and provide more torque, therefore, are preferred for a person who drives more than 50km. Whereas, petrol engine has a low service cost, more life span, generally have a well-controlled NVH level and are cheaper in cost than the diesel engines. Moreover, selecting between Ford EcoSport and Hyundai Verna would depend on certain factors such as budget, preference of the fuel type, features required, preference of the brand, etc. Ford EcoSport could be a better option if you prefer drivability and handling abilities over features. The EcoSport offers brilliant handling traits and is one of the most fun to SUVs. If you’re going to be spending most of your time behind the wheel, the EcoSport is the sub-4 meter SUV to go for. The EcoSport, with its tight handling, ensures that it’s one of the most fun-to-drive SUVs in the segment. On the other hand, if you want a car with sporty looks, a better feature list, a premium cabin experience, and like to spend time in front seats, you may go for Hyundai Verna. The Verna's never been a car that had something exceptionally exciting to it. It just gave you the right balance of quality, comfort, and features which made it a tempting package. With the facelift, that essence hasn't changed. We would suggest you take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort.
