I am using EcoSport Dragon - 1.5L Petrol

123 bhp 150 Nm torque, 5 Seat Compact SUV !

I have choosed EceoSport over Tata Nexon and Maruti Suzuki Brezza, I liked the fit and finish, value, refinement, fun to drive and look.

Ask any ford ecosport owner, they can't find a fault but then they face, mileage issues in city 9kmpl for petrol, rear space and no rear ac vent, wheel size difference across variants in bs4 models

Am I happy with the car: I hate the red colour at times, too flashy, I hate filling petrol often 

What I love about the car is

ride quality, refinement, performance and quality!

Hi, I own Ford Figo BS6 2020 Titanium named KANTHAKA. Having the hatchback is not the great one but having figo beast is much great one. Driving performance is smooth and handling is much smooth. can drive threw traffic in short gaps are easy. Visibility from the cockpit is clear.petrol average economy around 16.5 for my car at highways and 14 on traffics with AC. In highways stability become very good bcoz of it weight and tyre size provided in this variant. Headlight visibility at night need to improvise can't see the road if an vehicle with higher height approach

on your front or even on back.its much better it has rear view parking camera which is absent on this one. But for the price we paid on Ford they provide a good vehicle with ride safety, quality, comfort, and economy without fail.
