Ford Figo



Ford India has invested US $ 500 million in India to double its production capacity to 2,00,000 units per annum that shows Ford's desperation to make it big just like Maruti, Hyundai and Tata Motors. As such, with the launch of Ford Figo in the Indian auto market, the company plans to make its position stronger in the interminably growing hatchback segment.

Ford Figo is not only a small car in India but is also a ray of hope for Ford Motors as it has placed the company on a track that was much needed from the auto firm’s perspective. The company has equipped Ford Figo with everything that a small car owner can wish for. However, there are some limitations since it's a compact car and everything can’t possibly fit in it. What the Figo does offer is the much advanced and desirable array of features that include Lane Change Indicators, Rapid deceleration warning, speed sensing volume control, smart programmable remote key, distance to empty, 6 speed intermittent wiper and intelligent central locking besides Bluetooth connectivity. Ford Figo is available in both petrol and diesel models with four variants each. Its stylish look, exciting interior and exterior features and other advanced features at a comparatively low price tag woos the masses and even class.

The petrol version of Ford Figo is powered by the all new 1.2L petrol engine which produces 71Ps of maximum power and 102 Nm of peak torque while the diesel version of Ford Figo comes loaded with the company’s popular 1.4L, Duratorq diesel engine that currently powers Ford Ikon and Ford Fiesta and has gained a lot of popularity for delivering high engine performance with good fuel economy. This Duratorq diesel engine produces 69PS of maximum power and 160 Nm of top torque. Ford Figo comes in four variants in both petrol and diesel engine. The variants are Lxi, Exi, Zxi and Titanium. Thus the total variants for diesel and petrol are 8.

The company has taken the price of the base variant of Hyundai i10  as its benchmark for the petrol variants of Ford Figo that is priced at Rs 3.5 to Rs 3.6 lacs. While the diesel variants of Ford Figo are priced in the range of Rs 4.5 to Rs 5.45 lacs. These exceptional price ranges for such a large and stylish premium hatchback model has given it a good start.

Ford Figo shares its key elements of Ford’s kinetic design with its other stable mates like Ford Mondeo, Ford Focus and the recently launched European Ford Fiesta. Ford Figo is designed and engineered by Ford Australia. The slim upper grille and large lower grille, body colored bumpers with fog lamps create a magical view that pleases the eyes. Ford Figo features an array of advanced third generation safety features like Dual Front Airbags that offers safety in case of front collision, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) with EBD (Electronic Brake-Force Distribution) that enhance the stability of the car and provides a comfortable driving experience. Belt tensioners and Belt Force limiters, Seatbelt warning indicator, Door-ajar warning and many more safety features are also present in Ford Figo.
