Best Budget Performance Hatchback

Exterior

 Good paint quality. Acceptalbe levels of build quality for the segment. The rear doors are light. 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Even thoough its has same width as swift,the rear bench feels bit cramped for 3 adults. Gets loaded with all features, including the safety package. Like all ford's AC is best in class.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Puts smile on its face every time you take it for a spin. Behaves like a naked bike. Still retuns good fuel economy. With ABS, breaking duities are well handled. Supension is on a bit softer side, but not hundai like. Garebox has long throws, but will get used it, similar to 

Ride Quality & Handling

 Becasuse of soft suspension, there is a bit of body roll, but nothing that will concen you. Dont expect old figo like handling, can say same as swif if not better. Careful with your right foot, you will be doing illeal speeds in no time. It can cruse at 110+ all day with out swetting (abbeout 3000 RPM). 

Final Words

 If this has been from maruthi, all roads might have been filled up with figo's. Best desiel hatchback ever. Ford is trying hard to keep the service cost as low as possible. I have done 10K+, and my service cost is about 1900/-. Ford has now child parts available, and cost less than the maruthi. I have stoped using my bike in city, but I dont miss it, thanks to this littile pocket rocket, it sets me up every time I take it for a spin.

Areas of improvement  

1.  Will be missing old ford build. The sheet metal is thinner, not as thin as maruthi.
2.  Touch screen central console
3.  15'' tyres required.
