      Exterior Does not matter to me However FM antena looks funky.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Great interior, front seat are best place to be in, great touchscreen infotainment system, apple car play and android auto work seamless with voice command, Automatic climate control works good, AC is powerfull can chill cabin in 2 minutes. better ground clearance, top notch safety feature in its segment with 6 airbag, HLA, Traction control, ARP. HLA is very usefull. Rear seat dissappoint in term of comfort. adequate boot space. I did not find automatic headlanp and auto rain sensing wiper feature very convenient.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Great low end punch, powerful engine. you will have that confidence while driving or taking sharpe turn. Had driven 1000 km so far and i am getting 13 KMPL. Had not driven on highway however it can give 16 KMPL on highway as well as per my anticipation. Gear swiching is also smooth.

      Ride Quality & Handling Great ride with good handling too as Ford excel in this segment.

      Final Words Overall great choice for enthusiastic drivers, looking for daily commute in city and frequent highway trips. Only drawback i found so far is lack of navigation in apple car play.

      Areas of improvement Navigation with apple car play, rear seat confort and headrest, should offer DRL and other fancy features.

      Value for money, Great touchscreen infotainment system, top notch safety featurelack navigation in apple car play, rear seat comfort, road noise at high speed

      Exterior SUV-ish like robust design, versatile features and powerful engines are made to uplift the freestyle spirit. In terms of style, the front looks of the vehicle resemble that of Figo, though its new radiator grille makes it more distinctive, fog lamps gets c-shaped surrounds, faux skid plates on both the ends and black plastic cladding all around along with wheel arches provide the vehicle SUV like feel.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Anyone familiar with the Figo and Aspire will find the Freestyle’s cabin a familiar environment, but there are differences. The unique chocolate-on-black colour theme gives the Freestyle’s cabin a different vibe, while the long-overdue inclusion of a touchscreen infotainment system also hugely helps the look of things on the inside. Ford had to redesign the centre console to accommodate the 6.5-inch screen (shared with mid-spec versions of the EcoSport) but the move was well worth it. Ford’s latest Sync 3 touchscreen unit not only brings the Freestyle’s cabin to the present but is easily also among the best systems around. Touch responses are really slick, it’s super-quick to pair with your phone via Bluetooth, and though satellite navigation is missing, it does come bundled with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The car is powered by an all-new 1.2L Dragon series petrol engine that produces. 96PS and 120Nm of torque, mated to 5-speed manual transmission. Good Pickup and descent milege even in city heavy traffic.

      Ride Quality & Handling Smooth Riding and no worries of bumpers due to 190 ground clearance. Gear shifting is smooth and couldn't notice any engine vibration or noise. Reverse camera and reverse sensor ease in parking and turning.

      Final Words Best car in this segement. Soon it will rock indian roads. For better than its competetiors in this segments in terms of features and value for money. A perfect car to buy.

      Areas of improvement Everything looks fine when compare money and features provided in this car.

      Was planning to buy a new car so started to search cars randomly in youtube and i saw this ford freestyle in an off-road performance video and got impressed with its dynamics. Then decided to buy it. Its been a year since i got this vehicle and drived about 15000 kilometer and stil enjoying the performance of the ford engine. Its stable and comfortable steering makes it more enjoyable in high way drive. It look more similar like an updated figo rather than a new model. But with its suv claddings it looks great. Completed my 1st service at 10000 km and its was a below 2000rs i feel its less when compared with other brands its pocket freindly when it comes to regular periodic servicing. The plastic quality is worst, the door plastic makes noise when resting hand in it and boot space is less when compared with its competitive cars. It produces a huge amount of black smoke at sudden acceleration. The most peppy engine too drive and the gear box is nice to shift. Love to drive it daily. Stable at corners and its surely a self-driven car to enjoy.

      I bought freestyle titanium plus petrol, the driving experience is very good especially on highways, millage in the city 10Km and on the highways 15km, Front-seat comfort and legroom are very good, whereas rear seat comfort is not good. The dimensions what they are mentioned are not really seen on the road presence, Boot space could have been better, at the rear end they left almost 100 mm space free, which could have been included in the boot space. Being a top variant rear 60:40 split seat could have been provided. Best safety features are provided...at this price band.

      I have Ford Freestyle since 2018, It is a fun to drive car especially handling, high-speed stability& breaking. Always feel safe when inside the car. Done long drive like 500 km without any break very comfortably. The suspension is just awesome.. Service cost is reasonable and competitively low then others and maintenance cost is unbelievably low. But Rear seat n space is not very much comfortable and milage can be better. But at this price with safety features like ESP, Hill hold assist, 6 airbags means a lot. Thank You, Ford, for providing us such a safe and Amazing Vehicle With 190 mm GROUND CLEARANCE....

      First of all, I bought this car in 2019 Jan and drove close to 35000 km till date. It is a mindboggling crossover machine that can beat its competitor which is 2-3 lakhs ahead of it. I did multiple trips of 1500-2000 kms at once and never actually saw a single issue while driving this beast. Recently I have done Ghaziabad-Spiti-Chandrataal and returned back via Leh-Manali terrain. Now imagine, Leh-Manali (27 major water crossings)terrain in the rainy season ;) but it made it all. The torque generation feels like throwing petrol in the fire. Now the moment of truth. If you are a true lover of something, you must be an honest critic as well. Although this car has amazing capability, the fuel economy will scare the shit out of you as the price is skyrocketing. Whatever the company says, it won't give you less than 10.5 kmpl and more than 12 Kmpl (if you are lucky). No matter where you are driving, City or Highway. Tthe total average will be 11.5 max. In a nutshell, this cost you 9000 rupees/km which is quite high. Boot space is not really my problem. This has enough space to keep my things of atleast 4 men (You know why i didn't mention women ;) I also bought a separate luggage carrier in case the additional space is required. Furthermore, Now a major issue I faced(I'm not sure if it happens with any other freestyle user). I sometimes feel a sudden sensor malfunctioning, that i faced atleast 5 times especially in the long trips. Car shows every bit of lights available on a odometer and steering looses its power, brake gets harder to press, and at the end, car turns into old school tractor all of sudden. I never found a similar video on Youtube, asked for help from ford but they end up updating their software but the problem persisted. One day my friend got a similar article on web, where it was recommended to keep rear parking sensors clean while heading on a long trip. I generally do off-roading and the layer of dust stuck on the rear parking sensor that ultimately hampers the internal sensor integration(I believe). This leads to the overall machine malfunctioning. Now I keep those sensor clean alteast once while departure and again on return. Everything is going fine after that weird solution. it's been a year and no similar issue is found again. Overall this machine is great!

      * Ok, will start with the car first. The good bits : 1) The car is very good looking and stylish. Along with that it is a very practical car with a ground clearance of 190 mm 2) It is one of the most powerful cars you can drive in. The power to weight ratio is astounding. You literally take off in an instant. The torque is also very good. 3) Is a driver's car in true sense 4) Good safety features The bad bits : 1) Poor boot space 2) Ford customer service and support 3) Available only in Titanium and Titanium+ variant !! ( Dealers do not offer Ambiente and Trend variants. Its only on paper !) In spite of being a very good car, it has not been able to do good sales numbers because of poor customer satisfaction from ford. Ford does not make the buyer feel confident and comfortable enough to invest in their products. I personally tried to purchase this car but could not because they are not interested in selling lower variants. I wanted Ambiente model, but they said you have to buy Titanium only as other models are unavailable ! Can you beat that. I wrote to Ford head office in chennai as well but received a lack luster response from them as well. Hence decided to drop ford cars for good, since a good car is not enough, you need to back it up with good customer support as well.

      The car is very fun to drive. Engine is quiet capable. You will instantly like the car when you drive it. Ford should have given projector headlamps atleast in the top variants. Pros- 1. Engine feels powerful. 2. Driving dynamics are great. 3. Value for money. Cons- 1. Plastic quality is quiet average. 2. Boot space is limited. 3. No projector or LED headlamps.

      Before I go ga ga over my vehicle which i purchased in year 2018. i have driven for over 25000 kms.. Long Route Or Short. even off roading. I never experienced any lag of Comfort with this vehicle.. After Lots of Pondering over buying with likes of Maruti, Hyundai And Tata. I liked this car at that time. Only when i had taken it for a test Drive. Now for over 3 years I am very happy with this purchase. As Per Servicing cost is concerned its a little bit on the heavy side, but worth it. Pros Comfort Power 95 bhp Good mileage 14-15 on Highway 12- 13 City Cons No DRLs No Keyless Entry No Projector Headlamps But with 6 airbags. This is the first car of the segment with 6 Airbags .. I would like you all to just consider this vehicle for once
