Review
Ford figo zxi 1.2 petrol
Pros:
Design style, aerodynamic shape
Colorful body with matching handles, bumpers and mirrors
Motor controlled view mirrors
HI-FI DTS sound system
Vehicle weight for stability
Powerful head lamps with fog lights
Bluetooth interface for audio as well as cell phone connectivity for hands free operation
Registration of five cell phones with audio system
Seat height adjustment
Comfort boot space
Remote boot opener
Distance to empty (DTE), by which one can know approximately the distance your vehicle can go with the existing fuel.
Cons:
No usb slot. (provision is there that is optional)
No remote for audio system
No rear power windows and rear window glass closes up to 40% only
No alarm for opened glasses while locking the vehicle. You can lock the while car with window glasses opened by mistake
Internal door opening levers are in black, even though they may be with chromium plates for matching, a small factor
No version logo at the rear, left blank by the company. Why this small thing they forgotten in design I am not finding any subtle reason for this.
Low mileage around 13 km on highway
Costly maintenance and spare parts
Less resale value
General: Waiting period of about one month for certain colors
Final words: Ford figo is for those who want style and comfort with speed
