Ford Figo [2012-2015] User Reviews

Exterior Over all look was good. Height of the car is not same as other hatchback. The aerodynamics are very nice.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Too good leg room for rear passenger when compared with other hatchback. Good interiors. Blue tooth avaialability. Good boot space too. Ford music system, good plastic usage for interiors. Comfortable driving seat.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine perforamance @ 140KMPH is too good. Average milage is found to be 15 KMPL with air condtioning.

Ride Quality & Handling Comfortable riding. No vibrations in cabin @ 140KMPH. Smooth gear shift and power full engine for the money which we pay.

Final Words Very good engine performance, fuel econamy, leg room, and boot space. Overall the car is too good for the money which we pay. With few more extra features i20 will cost extra 1.2 lacks.

Areas of improvement I feel very less areas require improvement. Rear windows, alloy wheels, more service stations :-)

Exterior Appears compact yet very impressive outlooks, Nicely located headlamps and tail lights.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Reasonably spacious,nice dashboard, good boot-space,boot opening with remote key, great company fitted music system, bluetooth, airbags, abs, nice & comfortable seats.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Lags pickup from other cars in this segment inspite of powerful 1.4l engine, bad functioning of frequent turn on & off system of AC (VDC technology), problem i was facing in that car have rattling noises which i was not able to get corrected even after sevrel visists to Workshop.competitive mileage, smooth gearbox.

Ride Quality & Handling Smooth ride & handling.

Final Words If improved, it will become best in its class. Keeping price in mind it is certainly going to beat others.

Areas of improvement Pickup, bad functioning of frequent turn on & off system of AC (VDC technology) on both ideal as well as running conditions, adjustable steering, ground clearance, rear power windows, fog lamps.

Exterior The line on a car makes a smooth and bit aggressive looks,the headlights are the best part of the design which includes the integrated indicators !! and the sideline indicators adds is icing on the Cake. Its a complete refreshed look when you compare it with the existing Hatches. The only issue with the looks is looks bit familiar to its big brother FUSION. 

For sure FIGO looks made for men and adds a very defined and distinctive look instead of being a Haatch. The longer wheelbase and wide tires gives you a complete massive feel.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors could have been better if the instrument lights been anything other that Blue. Once you step into to the car you dont feel like you are in a hatch! afterall its a product from makers of Sedan. Comfort is matchless as you have height adjustment seats but could have been better if there was an option for a Tilt steering.

What one should say about the features everybody know there is only one car in the market which matches those features which are offered by Figo and that is Honda Jazz. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox In this department I would rather say it could have been better if the Petrol engine have pepped more power from it and here the Japanese takes the award ! Grarbox is pretty smooth but for this I would rate it just below Beat! Fuel economy I will post soon as yet I am waiting on the delivery of the Figo!

Ride Quality & Handling Only one word "Awsome"...its Ford makers of GT40. ;)

Final Words A complete package if you have any doubts in mind drive the car once. If 5 lac is your upper bracket and want a car loaded with features go for it, it took me one and half months of research to finalize the CAR and Figo takes the award!

Areas of improvement Engine response.

Exterior The exterior look is very dynamic and attractive. The tapering roof is what i like the most. The side profile is a bit ugly but overall all the car will catch your eyes when it passes by.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The USP of the car is its interior space...its amazing. You will get feeling of a sedan sitting inside the FIGO. Its very comfortable at the back. Three adults can easily fit in and travel say around 200 km comfortably at a stretch. Nice features at his price. Instruments are very strategically placed. There is no rear power window but i personally didn't find any use of it. the AC is super cool and the inbuilt music system is quite good. Only there should have been a USB port in the music system.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel economy is a bit of concern. I'll get the true picture only after the first servicing. The steering is very responsive. The engine is powerfull when  the AC is turned off. 0-80 kph is bread and butter.

Ride Quality & Handling Awesome riding comfort.

Final Words Overall its a very good VFM.

Areas of improvement Fuel Economy, Music system with USB port, Engine might have been a bit refined.

Exterior Very good exterior and options available for vibrant colours. Tough and rugged for long drives. Although it's a hatchback , the dimenssions are close to that of a sedan.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Seat quality one of the best in class, also it has a powerful AC and a excellent music sytem ( EXI model onwaards). Space is comfortable for 5 people of avarage built. Enough boot space for long trip of 2-4 people. It comes with feature like central locking, keyless entry, car information system showing odometer, trip meter, DTE. It has one of the good dashboard electronics showing mandatory and optional set of alrms both during startup and running of vehicle. Interiors typically comes with two options, one is ebony black and another is a shed of saffron, surely many will not opt for later.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine response is slightly sluggish in case of petrol engine but once it picks up the load then nothig good than that. Very comfrtable for city drive. Fuel economy may not be as close to the typical "maruti" fuel economy, but considering the huge space it is offering it looks decent.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is superb and handling is like a masterpiece. You can zip through city traffic easily.

Final Words Surely go for this car as a good package for this price.

Areas of improvement Rear looks, Hydraulic Power Steering.

Hi Guys,

 I need a serious advise whether i should buy FordFigo or no. I have taken a test drive for figo. I wasnt that happy with the pick up of the vehical, then SC ford malad provided a other car to me which was run around 7000 km. For that the Pick up was better. But when i took a test drives for other cars for e.g maruti A star, swift vxi, chevy beat and spark.... i found figo was nothing as far as pick up is concerned....This would be my first car....the overall look and feel of FIGO is really commendable. No issue with looks or handling but the pick is my concern. I am getting figo 1.2 EXI petrol for SC ford at 4.5 lacs on road at malad mumbai. Can i get a better deal somewhere ?. I am also a bit concerned about the mileage as i juz web thru all the reviews but everywhere the issue seems to be mileage and pickup. I think atleast for a year os so i wont fell the crunch, but as d car grows old the pick up factor would really be a big concern. Also i am worried about the alfter sales and maintenance...but the bottom line is figo is really appealing.

   Please write to me at "ved.dhaval85@gmail.com". Your help would be really appreciated.

Exterior Exteriors are well toned and well built. The car gives pleasure to eyes as looks are very good.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors have been worked out very precisely. The car is very spacious and gives feel of sedan. When you open up the fifth door, you would love to see the BIG boot space which can store plenty of items. And when rear seats are folded, you would feel like Car-come-bed is here for you. The dashboard is OK, nothing extra ordinary but the music system is AWESOME, I had gone through 5-6 most running cars in India and 2-3 new hatchbacks but they couldn't meet the quality of sound what Figo's music system is giving. A very handy feature of Bluetooth connectivity, so that you can sit back and relax while driving without any tension of picking mobile while driving. AC is also one of most powerful ACs I had seen around in this segment's car, can make car COOL within seconds even if it is kept in Sun for hours [if run in full speed]. Its Distance to empty feature is also cool which let's you know how much you can drive in available fuel.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox It lacks on fuel economy side, in city I am getting average of around 10 Kmpl in city and 12 Kmpl on highway. There could be reasons that I am new to driving, traffic conditions are too worse in my city(Indore) for car drive as mostly car runs on 2nd gear in city traffic. Although the engine is good very calm, infect no sound can be heard inside car. Also gear box is very smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling You would love to ride on this car. The car is very good in handling and controlling in city on low speeds and on highways on high speeds.

Final Words If you do not worry too much about fuel economy (or if you are a very good in fuel efficient driving) then you can go for this car with eyes closed as it is the best family car in hatchback segment for now.

Areas of improvement Fuel efficiency. Rear door mirrors can be designed to open completely.

Exterior Ford Figo looks very good exterior and shows like high end car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior was very good and good space and comfort.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine Performance is very good, Immediate pickup , Fuel it give 12 to 13 kmpl in city for normal petrol. Gear comfort is very good. There is lot of space between driver seat and next person.

Ride Quality & Handling

Final Words If you wish to go for ford figo EXI model try to just incress to ZXI it really worth it , because you have seat adjusment, read wipper with defog, bluetooth set I did mistake by taking EXI model, But my pure suggestion to buyers who go for EXI please go for ZXI.

Areas of improvement Centrel locking system should have beap sound so that we can make sure car get locked, at present it has only light blinking which is not confirmed while we use remote to lock the car from some distance. Low base make hitting most of the speed breaks so slightly hight will give good to drive.
