    Exterior Exterior is a damn eye-catcher till now. Stylish edges all over the car, the cool flamboyent aerodynamic look is awesome. Though I feel the plastic used on the doors beside the windows are cheap looking, the Headlights are not powerful enough, the Wheel Covers are back-dated.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The colour combination of Coral Dashboard looks appealing to me, though the texture of dash fibre is bit cheap looking. The powerful AC is damn responsive & chills very fast & evenly. The AC vents are cool & very useful as it can rotate 360 degrees. The Glove box is bit small & touches the knees when you open it...bad positioning I would say. The inbuilt music system is preety cool though sometimes the current song gets shuffled with the restart of engine. Controlling the electrical ORVMs with the knob given is damn accurate & very useful. The height adjustment option of the Driver's seat is also very useful. But the noise isolation inside the cabin is bit poor, the cabin not very calm in that sense, though the cabin looksvery bright due to the 2 small windows beside the back seat. The stroage space of the doors have been designed dimag lagake. The best part of the interior is the Boot space which is quite big in its class & the light in their is very handy.

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Now, as far as engine performance is concerened the engine is bit noisy than Quardrajet engines. Gear box is quite smooth & I used to get Fuel Economy in between 14 to 15 kmpl in the City. The pick up is standard.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling The ridy quality is satisfactory but due to the low ground clearance often I used to get thuds from bumpers under the chasis with a least speed 20 km/h also. Other than that the suspension is quite good. The Power Steering is quite accurate & helps me to zig-zag easily though at higher speed the steering used to vibrate which is a bad inclusion in this fantastic car.

     

    Final Words You can buy this car if you wanna have something different than Asian Manufacturers.


    Areas of improvement Areas of improvement are few I hope Ford will sort it out & make this car a MUST BUY.
