The Ford Figo is based on the Ford Global B platform and gets its name from the colloquial Italian expression Figo which is similar to the colloquial English expression ’cool’. On the whole, the Figo is as good as any other small car. However, the front end of this subcompact hatchback is sleek and looks very stylish and attractive.
Though small, the four-metre length of the Figo ensures a tall, purposeful look. The ride quality of the Ford Figo is quite exceptional both at the front and rear. The Indian roads which have quite a few speed breakers will easily be taken by the Figo in its stride without sending a rude message to the driver’s or passengers’ back.
The Figo leverages Ford’s small-car platform architecture with solid proportions. It shares essential technology with the Ford Fiesta, already familiar to Indian drivers.Built on a 2498mm wheelbase, Figo’s interior is a unique combination of quality, substance and generous proportions. The car has a seating capacity of 5 and a rear boot that can pack anything, right from your shopping bags to the luggage for a weekend getaway.
To sum it up, Figo is the most spacious small car in its class. Ford Figo is available in two different interior finishes, a very peppy Coral IP theme which will definitely appeal to the urban youth and an Ebony Black one with matt finish which would satisfy the needs of people looking for class and aesthetics.
Figo is also equipped with a Bluetooth Phone Interface, an MP3 player, a radio and 4 speakers. With easily accessible controls on its central stack, Figo helps you concentrate on your driving. From power window buttons and electric adjust mirror, to remote boot opening, Figo packs in everything.
