Ford Figo Aspire Design

The compact sedan segment generally has cars which look like more of a compromise. Good looks takes a back seat here. Thats not the cars with the Ford Figo Aspire, though. This one is a very good looking car. The Ford Figo Aspire is based on Ford’s Kinetic Design 2.0. The bonnet or boot are neither too long nor short. The front design is similar to other new Fords like the Fiesta and Mondeo. There is a prominent swag line that runs across the car. The glass area is small so the car looks larger. This also makes it look well balanced and not too tall. The boot design too is good with a chrome strip that is well proportionate. Its not too flashy not too thin. The car looks premium ever from the rear.

Ford Figo Aspire Interior

Stylish and modern interiors don the Ford Figo Aspire . The cabin has a neat layout with nothing out of place. The instrument panel is well laid-out with the new Ford steering wheel and fit has a lowing centre console. The top-of-the-line Titanium+ gets a mobile docking system as well.

The other variants get the regular music system that we familiar with in the Ford Fiesta and Ecosport. The Sync has Bluetooth connectivity with audio streaming. It also has medical assistance where the car automatically calls the emergency number in case of an accident. There is automatic climate control and electrically folding ORVMs.

The Ford Figo Aspire has good overall space management. The front row is very spacious. The second row seats are comfortable for two people only. The third will be a bit of squeeze as the central tunnel is raised and there is no headrest for the middle passenger. The cooling from the AC was decent in the Udaipur heat, but the rear AC vents were missed. With a boot capacity of 359 litres, the Ford Figo Aspire provides decent luggage carrying capacity.

Ford Figo Aspire Engine

There are three engines to choose from in the Ford Figo Aspire. First is the 1.2-litre petrol that churns out 87bhp of power and 112Nm and comes mated to a five-speed manual transmission. This engine is ideal for city driving, while for highway it is just fine if you want to cruise. The punch from the engine comes after 3000rpm and keep it above that if you want to extract the best performance.

The Ford Figo Aspire’s second engine is the 1.5-litre petrol. This engine comes only with a six-speed DCT (dual clutch transmission). Simply put, it is a high-end automatic transmission. This is quite a powerful engine and is fun to drive in a spirited fashion. It is very responsive and will satisfy those looking for extra performance with the convenience of an automatic.

The third engine is the 1.5-litre diesel that produces 98bhp of power and 215Nm of torque. This engine of the Ford Figo Aspire has been tuned for better performance, however,  there is still some amount of turbo lag. This is the perfect engine be it city or highway driving. This is the best engine of the lot and we will recommend this for performance and even fuel efficiency.

The diesel is certainly our pick of lot and it has a good mid-range, at low rpms it struggles to pull. The sweet spot for this engine is between 2000-3500rpm. The diesel will return about 15-17km/l in city. The Ford Figo Aspire has good suspension set-up. At the rear it is softer than the front and so the rear has still decent ride. The handling of the Ford Figo Aspire is one of the best-in-class and even the electric power steering is light and easy to drive in city and even on the highway.
