Figo comes in 1.2 petrol and 1.4 diesel. It has large boot space and comfortable driver seat
Ford India organized a separate screening and presentation of the new Ford Figo to the electronic media today. This is certainly, to the best of our knowledge, the first time such an initiative is taken by an Auto company in India and we’re grateful to the entire Ford team for providing with such a fantastic experience.
I’ll be shooting pictures and evaluating the driving characteristics of the Figo during the drive tomorrow.
Today, the story of how the Ford Figo was born, and how an old European Fiesta was turned into a budget family mobile for ‘Sandeep,’ a newly wed Indian male with aspirations, energy and confidence, was discussed in depth. More on the story later.
I spent a brief amount of time experiencing the static car, and it looks very impressive. The ingress/egress could have been better. The quality of the buttons and switches in certain points could have felt better. But overall, Ford’s got the material/color/feel formula almost spot on.
I’ll drive the car, and with some quality pics I’ll come back to you tomorrow.

Guys, plz dont say such things like car is small and stuff without seeing it in person, I too thought the same but once you drive it, its a different story trust me. I loved the way it handles, afterall its a Ford.
Does this car have some Josh like the Ikon?
Will there be a bigger engine in the future (1.6)?
@Bharath
This car is huge than Beat. It’s wider and longer than swift
and price is expected to be less than swift
U are comparing it with beat…lol..
Figo has more space than beat and
no need to say Ford makes brilliant driver’s cars
Figo should be no short as it is based on old fiesta which was praised for its driving dynamics and ride….
But this car is too small, and the cost is expected above 4.2 lakhs. Instead we can go in for Chevy Beat…
