Ford Aspire User Reviews

Doors are a bit weak, otherwise nothing to say best sedan in this segment, best mileage 1.5 litre engine for best pickup, i went on a top speed of 170km/hr in this car. My choice is to try this

1. Buying: I had booked a Baleno & waited 6 months for it to come, and then when it came to the dealership I was out of station and they gave my car to some other buyer. When I came back to city, they said they could not keep a Baleno unsold for few days when there are thousands of customers waiting for a Baleno car. I cancelled booking & decided I would never go to a Maruti dealer again in my life. And I do NOT feel any regret at all now.... I think God had a better plan for me. Went to the Modi Ford dealer the following day(30th Dec 2016), did a test drive in a Aspire TdCi 1.5L and I fell for it. Booked it on the same day. They gave me discount of 50k + Insurance free. Took the delivery next day 31st Dec 2016.... and my new year began with a shiny, sexy, new hot Ruby Red Ford Aspire car :) 2. Riding : Its clocking 44000+ km as of today. Ride quality is slightly stiffer than Maruti or Hyundai cars. Cabin feels very spacious as for a sub 4 meter car. Seats have good under thigh support. You wont feel tired after 500-700 km run in a day. You will feel the pot holes & bumps in slower speed though. MRF stock tyres make lots of noise. 3. Looks: Look is subjective. I loved it. You may or may not. 4. Performance: Power is more than sufficient, in fact most of the time you will feel yourself sitting in a most powerful(power to weight ratio wise) car on the street that are within 10-15 lac rupee price range. 0-100 km can be achieved under 10 seconds. It can give Polos & Swifts & i20s & Rapids a run for their money. Turbo lag is almost negligible after 1200 rpm. Handling corners is better than any other car in the same segment. Steering is light but very precise & accurate, in fact I would say its better than or in the same league of Polo or Punto(without the weight of HPS) kind of pedigree.. I drive 50-60km everyday for office commute. I had done 6 highway runs(up & down) so far, 3 times hyderabad to goa, 1 hyd to Sitapur(in UP), 1 hyd to Sagar(in MP) & 1 Hyd to Tirupati(in AP). And the car performed without any issue at all... no rattle, no break down & no other mechanical issues. It drives like a bigger Sedan in higher speed on the highway. It can do 120km/hr all day non-stop without letting you be in any uncomfortable situation. Braking power is awesome. Apply brake and it stops at any speed without any drama. ABS is extremely sensitive & you can never skid the car at any speed. AC is very strong & can chill the cabin within minutes. Music system is just average. Fuel Efficiency: I get 14 km/l in city on those days when I try to have some fun.. :) 17-19km/l in city on those days when I drive with a very lite foot. Similarly I can get 19-21km/l on highway when I drive at speed above 100km/hr all day, and I can get 25-27km/l on very smooth highway when I drive with a lite foot and speed within 80-100km/hr. So it all depends on you, what you are doing with the machine. Servicing: If you are not careful or mechanically aware individual then those Ford service center folks might screw your happiness. Those so called mechanics at Ford service centers are bunch of A**holes. Maintenance: I find service cost is competitive to other car companies. Maybe a few 100 rupees less or more than the Maruti or Hyundai. But its nothing overwhelming. I give my specific instruction to the service center agent while giving my car for service and I dont fall in their trap of "change this or change that or this coating/that coating". :) Pros: If you are to buy only 1 car for all purpose with 8-9 lac rupees of money then this is it! Cons: 15/16 inch wheel with 185 or 195 section tyre would have been a very nice compliment to the car & it's power. 14 inch wheel is not good enough. Music system sounds very ordinary. And of course the service center folks are of some pain. 4 star is for this. Though I am not sure how the mechanics at Maruti or Hyundai service centers would act. I guess it would be same in all service centers for me. :) Disclaimer: I am a bit mechanically aware about the Automobiles and so I find fault in almost all service center folks. It sounds to me that they talk clueless most of the time... I feel their only agenda is to get your money and change the engine oil and somehow get the car out of service center... :)

Cons: 1)Rear seat thigh support is not good. 2)Pre facelift grill was class. I didn't like the new grill 3) No driver armrest even in top end. 4) Too much chrome in the front. 5) Rear seat is strictly for 2 adult and 1 child. Prons: 1) Silent cabin, 2) Superb engine. 3) Suspension is good. 4) Clutch is light. 5) Gear shifting is very smooth.

Value for money by the performance side but more features could have been given, in the price of 9 lakh u don't get enough features, looks could have been more sharp but this is also good , maintenance cost is too high, cons in the car is the fuel efficiency only 11,12 in city 14,15 in high way

This car is an absolute value for money.The handling,ride and comfort is top notch.Titanium Tdci model is very well equipped and it undercuts the competition.The engine is very refined, smooth and having tons of power in reserve.The build quality is excellent and driving dynamics is way ahead of the competition. it is comparable to some of the D segment sedans.The engine is quite fuel efficient, as i drove only few hundred kilometers I am getting a fuel efficiency of 17-22 kmpl(ac on).This is the first time i am buying a ford vehicle and i am really satisfied with the product.

Best in engine power, fun to drive, build quality, fuel efficiency, air conditioning, music system, tyre profile (in titanium and titanium plus models), 6 airbags (in titanium plus model), features & value for money (in all the models). I am very sorry to say but actually we Indians are the sheep followers, & safety is not our priority, that why.., this car is underrated.

As per the company shown that it will give mileage upto 26. 1km/l but I thought that I may give at least 20-22 and for me it nt even getting mileage of 15 km/l its arriving only 13. 8 km/l on city & 14 km/l on Highway remaining all excellent it's fun to drive it's performance is mind blowing but only for the fuel economy I won't compromise

I bought my car on July 2017. This car is absolute value for money. I have run more than 36k but I am really disappointed by service and customer care. Rude behavior and avoid complaints.

I have taken test drive of this car ( Ford aspire facelift 2018 titanium TDCI) with ford officials Mr. Krishna Sharma and Megha ji From SAI ford Bhopal. Ford got changed this car in every sight than the aspire 2015 -2018. As compared to price Ford has provided much more facility in interior and exterior of this car like auto climate control A. C. . GPS navigation.' ,rear view camera' ,rear defoger' big size wheel, stearing mounted control penals and much more. The car does not provide any trouble in climbing a gentle hill side road even in 4th gear.From the side of driving this car has very gentle gear shifting. 1.5 L diesel engine gives strong and surprising Pick up . Smooth and handy staring wheel. Very low engine noise as compared to other compact sedan car like Amaze Desire and tigor. Though this car is only a step behind in number of colour, absence of Led lamp and small size instrument penal as compared to the Baleno, Desire Amaze and Tigor.but Ac. quality is more superior then these cars. Other cars in this segment do not stand in any position against this car. So there is no need to compare them with this car. My over all experience is nice. Thanks to ford. Finally I have booked this car.
