Ford Figo [2012-2015] User Reviews

Exterior ARE GOOD AND APPEAR MUSCULAR DUE TO THE WHEEL ARCHS, ALLOY WHEELS ADD TO THE LOOKS. REAR LOOKS ARE COMPARITIVLY OK BUT COULD BE IMPROVED. FRONT LOOKS FABULOUS.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) QUALITY OF PLASTICS IS OK BUT COULD BE BETTER, THE SPACE ON OFFER IS AMAZING WITH GOOD LEG ROOM FOR BOTH FRONT AND REAR SEATS. BUT SPACE BECOMES A BIT OF CONCERN WHEN 3 ADULTS OCCUPY THE REAR SEAT. BOOT SPACE IS AMAZING WHICH WAS ONE OF A MAJOR FACTOR FOR ME TO BUY THIS CAR. SEATS ARE COMFORTABLE AND BODY ROLL IS VERY MINIMUM AT CORNERS. FEATURES OFFERED ARE EXCELLENT AT THE PRICE OFFERED. ONLY DRAW BACK IS NO POWER WINDOWS AT THE REAR EVEN IN TITANIUM. GOOD LUMBAR SUPPORT FOR THE DRIVER SEAT (SINCE I DRIVE ALWAYS) DONT KNOW ABOUT OTHER.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox PERFORMANCE AS FAR AS PICKUP IS CONCERNED IS ON THE LOWER SIDE (COMPARING TO TATA VISTA, MANZA WHICH I OWN ) MIGHT BE BECAUSE OF SOHC ENGINE WHEREAS THE OTHER IS DOHC ENGINE. CITY DRIVING DOES NOT SHOW THE DIFFERENCE BUT ON HIGHWAYS YOU FEEL THE LACK OF POWER WHEN YOU TRY TO OVERTAKE. FULE ECONOMY I AM GETTING OF 15KMPL AVG WITH AC ALL THE TIME WHEREAS MY DRIVING IS 50% CITY AND 50% HIGHWAY IN MANGALORE. DEALER SAYS THAT AFTER FIRST SERVICE ECO IS GOING TO IMPROVE. BUT I DONT WANT TO COMPROMISE ON THE PICKUP. MY VISTA IS GIVING ME 18 KMPL(50K+ KMS RUN) WHEREAS MY MANZA IS GIVING ME 17 KMPL(45K KMS RUN BUT WITH A LOT OF TURBO LAG). IN FIGO THE TURBO LAG IS BARE MINIMUM. GEARBOX I FEEL IS OK. NO PROBLEM IN GEAR SHIFTS AND GEAR RATIO IS PRETTY GOOD WHICH MUST BE COMPENSATING TURBO LAG IF ANY.

Ride Quality & Handling EXCELLENT RIDE QUALITY AND HANDLING BETTER THAN BOTH MY OTHER CARS. SUSPENSION SEEMS TO BE A BIT HARD BUT IS BEST TO ME AS I ALWAYS HAVE SOME OR THE OTHER LUGGAGE IN MY BOOT. BODY ROLL IS NEGLIGIBLE. ABS DOES ITS WORK FINE.

Final Words AS FAR AS MY PURCHASE GOES I HAD WALKED OUT TO A MARUTHI SHOWROOM TO PURCHASE SWIFT DZIRE BUT DUE TO THE DONT CARE ATTITUDE OF PEOPLE AT THE SHOWROOM I WALKED INTO FORD THE NEXT SHOWROOM INLINE AND WAS SURPRISED AT THE WAY THE VEHICLE WAS PRESENTED AND BOOKED THE VEHICLE THEN AND THERE AFTER GOING FOR A TEST DRIVE.

Areas of improvement HEADLIGHTS NEED TO BE IMPROVED AS NIGHT DRIVING BECOMES A BIT HAZARDOUS IN UNKNOWN ROADS. REAR POWER WINDOWS NEED TO BE ADDED (MADE MY DECISSION ON PURCHASE A BIT DIFFICULT WITHOUT P/W AT REAR).

GOOD SPACE, GOOD FUEL ECONOMY, BOOT, FEATURES OFFERED AT THIS PRICE, GOOD INTERIORSNO POWER WINDOWS AT REAR EVEN IN THE HIGH END, HEADLIGHTS NOT UP TO THE MARK, GROUND CLEARENCE

Ford Ikon was my first car. It was good enough, but I had to change due to lenthy car in city driving and the ford stopped it's  production. I was researching since one month.  n test driven all hatch backs.Although I prefer DOHC diesel engines But rejected the polo,Ritz swift, punto, Vista quadrajet, sail yuva, n i20 due to various reasons. i20 good but cost n lenth. Vista is really a value for money but the taxy brand n tata's quality???  Polo is good but rear leg room n rear passanger seat's thigh support? oh my God the VW is ignoring that? and Its lenth is more than figo, but cabin n boot r smaller; besides these crossing the budget. Beat is very compact in space n poor engine. Liva having only bottle holders, worst interior, noisy cabin; besides these looks is good only in it's tv add. Micra n pulse has less space but more cost.  Swift?????? cost difference is one lakh becose it's most selling car, n you have to wait. Besides these again like polo It's length n width is more but boot only 202 lit. in comp of figo's 284 lit. punto is risky until fiat serves it's seperate  dealership. Sail Yuva was good but it was new launch n again lenth fector??? city driving of swift is tough you just can't see the corners. Ritz is only the tall boy car, so for ladies in family it's not good car.

So After long research, I stopped on figo, n ultimately bought it on 12/12/12 at 12.12pm. The true value for money car, which serves you everything you need. I prefer safty n convenience so I bought New titanium. Althogh we use car only for maximum 12000 km in year, but I love diesel's torque. So went for 1.4 tdci. Exterior is good. It's look is neither executive like polo, nor sporty like swift. But it looks attractive, and I think It's look is for all. One can easily fell in love after looking it. The new front grill making it more aggressive. New headlamps n talelamps r also making it modern. The new alloys awesome. Interior new blue mind blowing. It's new driver seat height adjust and steering mount music control r the features which was really needed. I increased it's ground clearence 5 mm, by changing it's 175/65/14 tyres to  175/70/14. As it was predecided by me after few figo custmers advises. And I did so, coz they were happy by there decison. (now figo never touches the brakers).

 It's new engine mobilization making it more powerfull in 2nd gear also. Gear shifting is not best but it's good. Clutch is very smooth. Steering is ok but it is good for stability in speed. Braking is also good may be due to ABS with EBD, but good.  I have driven 1500 kms. Maximum at 160 km/hr. Great control n stability on high speed. If you drive at 1500 to 1800 rpm you can get upto 22km/lit. I drive fast n 25% driving is in city, so getting 17.4 km/lit. I think it is good.

Space? One day the guest arrived n we decide to go together in figo. we were 5 adults and 2children of 4 n 6 yrs in cabin plus two 11 n 13 yrs children in boot space with shutting the boot door. they both were near about 5 feet n was sitting on bags. we enjoyed figo lot. Music system with bluetooth conectivity is good.

As far as maintenance is concern it's cost is not more then maruti and hyundai; as i maintained icon. And ford is now growing fast these days so ass is not a issue. four yrs/one lakh km warranty serves you great peace of mind.

If you r in search of value for money car with having everything then go for figo.

Comfort,cabin n boot space,silent cabin, looks, stability, AC, Interior,No Rear power windows, Climate control AC and electrical foldable ORVMs

Exterior Nice exterior looks(saying on the basis of my figo being sea-grey colour). awesome reverse parking sensors which alerts at a distance difference of 3-4ft 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comfortable seating capacity for 5 people... interiors really look stunning with best in the class A/C, stereo system, bluetooth connectivity, cup holding consoles n lots more... only thing dissapointing is for the rear passengers who will lack the comfot of having power windows at back.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I was highly impressed by its such nice pick up... jus for fun i took up a challenge with my friend's maruti swift vdi on the highway was stunned to see figo had left swift way behind (actually nt in the picture). Racing freaks can ur bet money on it.

Ride Quality & Handling At d speeds of 120-140km/hr(actually max speed till which i hd drove on highwy) figo is rock solid without any swaying.

Final Words If u want a car with all facilities like excellent pik up, comfortable interiors n exciting exteriors go for figo. FABULOUS FIGO.

Areas of improvement Should provide rear power windows.

excellent pick up, easy manuvering, best in the class A/C, interior spaceno rear power windows

Parts are bit costly compared to Maruti Suzuki but power will forget all about from this car great power with its 1.4 ltr engine with American brand trust space is good as compared to its competitors boot space is too good

Exterior

Comes with great style and look and tail lamp has very robust look but the biggest drawback is it has very very low ground clearance and bumpers are quite weak as they give you a plastic feeling

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Interior is very nice with nice leg space. It`s music system is very nice along with music up/down button beside steering as it gives you the feeling of paddle shift

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Gearbox is very smooth,Fuel economy is not great as my Figo gives around 13kmpl and engine is bit noisy

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride quality and Handling is excellent as car remains stable at 130kmph

Final Words

 I would recommend this car to everybody who is eager to have a nice, value for money hatchback car

Areas of improvement  

Ground clearance must be improved and back two windows should be power windows. Otherwise, this car is true synonym of "Value for money"

 

 

Value for money car, Spacious, Loaded with good music system and speakers and lots oftother featuresBack two windows are manually operated, Fuel economy is not great

1) Buying experience I bought this after it suited the standards I needed for the price I expected and it satisfied what I expected. 2) riding experience The ride quality of Ford Figo is absolutely superb you don't feel any kind of lag in the engine its power delivery is very good as it is powered by 1400cc of engine which gives the necessary power required by the car and it's steering control is good and handling is superb there is no issue in ride quality. 3) details of looks and performance Though the interior is not great as it is compared to it's rivals but the build quality is decent and the plastic used is good. 4)pros and cons Pros Good ride quality Better engine Best in class based on the price Cons Lower height may cause uneasy for tall people No power windows for rear windows

Exterior Ford Fiego has a good looking exteriors. it has a smily look.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comfortable with large boot space, rear window glass shouldn"t be half open,it should get deep down. Music system is good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Pick up is O.K but Engine is little noisy. One can feel the noise inside the cabin but differs with the change in acceleration/speed.Fuel economy is average,should have been better, gearbox is smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling Overall Trouble free.

Final Words I purchased this model after reviewing the comments,studying all comparisons and by test drive of.Now, I had completed 5700 km run. The Ford had furnished almost all possible features in this model that too in the competitive price. It has the best driving comfort, Boot space and comfortable inner space for the three in back seats with stylish look. 
The only two things I think needs improvement. The ground clearance should be increased considering humps on Indian roads.This car is really best in its class and segment.I feel like competitors had been left behind.

Areas of improvement Engine noise,milage.

A/C,features,interiors are excellentEngine is little bit noisy with some lags.

Hey guys, This product called Fpord Figo is awesome. but never pruchase it as the service of dealers specially in Mumbai is so so bad. you are tired of just calls from them , repeat the same problem to 4 people and then also the problem is not solved. car is delivered after service in most shabby manner. Also if they tell u that they shall pick up the car again in 4 days, it shall actually be 2 months and you shall have to follow up not they.  They pick your car in the afternoon and then say they shall deliver the next day. The estimates of service are wrong. They just try to call and ensure that you give good feedback, They do not do anything if there is a not so good feedback

In all a very bad experience 3 times , Never purchase a FORD car in India though the product is better. You shall have to beg for good after sales service for very basic things

 

Car built & productReally bad service and attitude of dealers
