Hello guys,
I can have previlege to write about this car after using it for a year and after two services are done.
And I am happy to say that I own a quality hatch back. Ford figo has solid build quality which makes it a city car as well as a long drive vehicle. I have driven it with speed of 120 km/hr and I found it very stable with less load(Me, My wife and 1 kid and 1 baby). Figo is a heavy car that is the reason it is stable but gives relatively less mileage , I can say 2-3 km/l less compared to other hatchs in market. It has good legroom at back and at front as well(my family is with avearege height 5'6"). Though space above head is not that good but your head is not going to get bumped while onboarding and alighting for sure.It has good interiors especially if you choose ebony color scheme for interior , one may also like the coral scheme they provide.The dash board is excellent of the class of sedans.
Now coming to ride quality, I feel like driving a SUV when I drive it on highways(I drive between 70-90). Engine is smooth (I have petrol) and performs good at all speeds and loads.Gear handling is excellent, I have not seen this quality of comfort while changing gears in sedans like Dzire, Verna forget about Swift, Vista, etc. Suspension is also good. It has best boot space and A/C compared to other hatchs there in market.
I had two free services done. The service center people were aproachable and customer friendly. While dropping car for service they checked and drive checked(along with me) for 1/2 an hour and after service all minor issues(seat sounds) were fixed. First service costed Rs 0 and second costed me Rs. 1000 (cost of oil and filter). But I found Ford people were in no hurry whatsoever which I have experienced with Maruti people(We have 800 in family). Overall service center experince was at par(lets hope it will the same at next visit)
Some of my observations related with mileage:
City: 13-14 km/l
Highways(speed betwen 70-80): 20 km/l
Highways(speed 90-100): 18 km/l
And with the competitive price tag its worth buy, I bought it for 4.16 L, now its 4.54L for ZXI Petrol
