Disappointing Highway Drives

Purchased the car in Ruby Red, Tit+ 1.2l Petrol from Chennai Ford in November after plenty of research and evaluation. The main factor that led in choosing freestyle was the safety package that it comes with. No other models at this price range offers Front & Curtain airbags, ESP, TCS, ARP, and Hillhold control. Have been driving this around in the chennai city and the highways to Kerala and the hills in kerala as well. I should say that I'm not at all impressed with the petrol engine's performance. First 3 gear ratio is good, but after that omce you try to overtake a vehicle on the highway you just have to push it harder. It feels as if the car just can't move. Only two occupants in the car, and still from 4th gear onwards the car can't handle overtaking those extra long trucks that carry cars and bikes. I've 2012 Chevy Beat 999c and it is honestly too good when you hit the pedal to the metal. That chevy engine feels more trustworthy than the 1.2l dragon. Now 3800kms have passed and the whole Touchscreen and Sync system just won't boot up, it came up with lost ESP alarm twice. I felt like I've sacrificed a whole lot of the performance considering the safety features that i was impressed with. And the stock headlamps are useless. In the city though, the car performs okay. Bumper to bumper traffic doesn't give much of a tension. Alao with the proclaimed ground clearance it still manages to hit some of the speedbreakers. My advice driving the Petrol to new buyers is, if you are looking to buy this to take on highways please avoid this. Just driving around the city wouldn't be a problem. For the same price probably you could get better engine with VW and Hyundai.
