    Exterior Although it is an othodox design, but still manages to look fresh and balanced. The colour options make good for the not so futuristic design. The panel gaps are minimal. The overall feel is rock solid built quality delivered in a fresh and no nonsense design.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) This is where Figo takes all the marks and leaves compitition behind by miles. Sit inside it and you would feel like sitting inside Fiesta. I am 5'11'' and I bought this car without even taking a test drive just because its cabin felt like stting inside A380. The fit and finish is Ford class. Seats are very comfortable. If they give the option of adjustable stearing I would suggest you to buy 2 figos. Although one negetive is that the AC is not that efficient as may be in a swift. The boot is so big that you may keep a Nano inside it (Ok that was an exaggeration but you get my point).

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox If you are not the one who want to race their cars and want a desent city drive, Figo is just made for you. Its not as peppy as the other Japanese or Korian cars. Fuel economy is not that great. I am getting 12 KMPL (mixed drive) which I expect to go to 14 KMPL after 1st servicing. No problems in the gearbox.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling The ride quality and handling is just great. You feel like driving a sedan. The shock-absorbers do their job well. The stearing is the best to grip.

     

    Final Words Best value for money (onroad very well loaded petrol version costed me only 4.6 Lacs). The built quality is undoubtedly the best in class. Inside comfort of a sedan. The goodies on this car are endless. The pertrol engine is OK but the Diesel (like most other cars these days) is an out performer.

     

    Areas of improvement Dear Ford engineers.

    1) Try to increase the fuel economy of the Petrol engine.

    2) Give the option of adjustable stearing.

    3) AC can be improved.

     

    Easily the most spacious hatch, having the biggest boot. Tank like built qualitypoor average (Petrol car) not a very peppy engine
