The info which i got on this new car is that the engine options would be Petrol & Diesel. The new baby gets a new petrol engine and diesel gets the same 1.4 TDCI which does duty in the ford fiesta.

Price should be in the range of i20...my gut feel is that the top end should be less than 7L

Price should be comparable to Swift and Vista, to hit the charts.

I am thoroughly impressed by the Figo. It will be good for both family and personal use. Will have good space, ride and handling, a powerful diesel engine and a killer price tag. This will be the car I'll buy, if I buy a car next year. Theres no use spending loads of money on a sedan when you got all its core values minus the boot in a hatchback.

I think the Figo should be launched by december before the VW Polo comes into the market. If both are launched side by side, it will be a fun to watch the duel between these two, which come to the market with similar objectives!!

Not really Zinam.
Figo is basically an upgraded Fiesta Hatchback.
I've heard many negative comments about this little car but personally I quite liked it.Figo can do wonders in India if priced spot on with some latest features.
But Fords need to do some hard work as the competiton in the coming days is only going to become tougher with new launches like Polo.


Drive Safe!
