Before chosing a car I gathered my need which listed below.
1. Build Quality.
2. Driving Dynamics.
3. Good Mileage.
4. Decent Ground clearance.
5. Engine Quality and Life.
6. Look wise(Kind of Off Road Vehicle).
7. Horse Power b/w 80-100bhp.
8. Stability.
9. Feature loaded.
10. Less Maintenance.
11. Should be a top end (Because I don't like to spend money for the features if I buy low end or mid end)

Strictly made a full stop for price range, should be below 10L as I am from budget family. 
*Note:* Omitted Sedans like Honda Amaze, Swift dZire, VW Ameo,

Hyundai Aura, Aspire and Xcent because according to current statistics, this decade of most Indian buyers buying thought changed to Hatchbacks and Sub 4 metre SUV's. My thought too!

In the start of 2019, I started analysing the Drivability of each car in Indian Market under 10L. Test driven the cars, read number of user reviews about each cars, watched huge youtube videos and noted down disadvantages & advantages of each car. Finally, Chosen two to three cars under each brand.

Starting from Maruti and Nexa!
Many of my surroundings adviced to go with Swift. Enthusiast like me never like Swift and Baleno. 
Where it failed in my needs ? 
If I press the bonnet with my thumb, it's going inside. I don't like to mention about build quality because Maruti claiming its coming under light weight strong comb structure.
Coming to Driving dynamics and Stability, I didn't feel confidence in 140 (at Shoulding roads) where I felt strong confidence in i20, Polo and Figo. These cars where so stable while comparing swift and baleno. I got the tick marks only in Maintenance, Mileage and Resale value. 
*Omitted Swift and Baleno*

Coming to VW Polo!
I would like to say it's a bureau. Very strong comb structure. Great look and sporty car.
Good engine and performance car.
Where it failed in my needs ?
Ground clearance and Maintenance. Many of them have complained about ground clearance of the car with four people loaded. I have personally driven the polo from Bangalore to Goa with friends where I faced the same issue.
Considering the cost of parts, its costlier and mostly VW service centre will advice us to change whole assembly of the mechanical parts incase of any single part issue in the same assembly.
*Omitted Polo*

Coming to Hyundai!
i20. It is an awesome and Stylish car. Personally driven i20 many kilometres as my cousin own it. Almost every check box of my need got checked. When comparing the Driving dynamics and Power, Figo and Freestyle wins. Unfortunately they stopped Diesel engine in BS6, plus I don't like to shift 6 gears in Indian roads, I felt hectic sometimes.
*Omitted i20*

Coming to TATA!
Tiago, Tigor, Altroz.
Highlight of the above tata cars that I love to mention is Build Quality, Harmann Infotainment System and Features.
The major missing of the petrol car is Engine power and pickup. I felt the lag during overtaking from lowspeed.
When accelerating, vehicle should obey according to our mindset but in Tata petrol cars, we should change our mindset according to vehicle's pulling. (In need of turbo petrol here - Coming soon)
Both Petrol and Diesel is underpowered while comparing i20, FS, Figo & Polo GT
But Nexon Petrol and Diesel is a beast here with 120 & 110 PS. Petrol gives low mileage figure & Diesel is decent one. 
Nexon is out due to my budget, soo
*Omitted TATA*

Coming to Honda!
Jazz is good vehicle but I haven't kept any choice in Honda.
*Thus omitted!*

Coming to Skoda!
Performance car and high maintenance!
Out of my budget..!
*Omitted*

Finally FORD!
Test driven both Figo Diesel and Freestyle Petrol. What a driving dynamics yaar, it's a rocket. Peppy performance. Fun to drive car. When accelerating it is pulling like anything where i20 lost from my buying list. When comparing i20 and Altroz features, FS and Figo stands last. Still I went for ford due to pure performance and driving dynamics of the car. It almost blurred the whole lists in the category. One thing I need to highlight about FS is Traction Control System, Electronic Stability Control, Anti Roll Over Protection, Hill assist, 190mm Ground Clearance with 6 airbags. What else you expect under 10L ?
TDCi is a beast in both Performance and Mileage. No fear about under chase hit in Indian roads. Most of the people thinking ford maintenance is higher but it is very lower while comparing competitors.
Almost digged for an year to chose a perfect vehicle that suits my Enthusiastic taste!

Experts said me to go with Feature loaded car or good resale value car but I had other idea. 

Choosing a suitable car *varies* with respect to the need of an individual person! Thus added *Ford Freestyle Titanium Plus Diesel* in my garage and perfectly matching with my Palm & Foot play. Ford Impressed me??

I had purchased Ford Ecosport Titanium (D) on 24 th December, 2017.

Ecosport is not just a mere car like what we see from outside. Its a very much capable car. A car which is built tough, a car which is rock solid stable at triple digit speeds, a car which makes you smile while you throw it at corners, a car which offers pocket friendly maintenance, a car which you can choose for your weekend getaways and much more. 

As Indians are very much concerned about "Kitna deti hai" ?  I would like to say that the least I have got

on a litre is 12.8 kmpl and the max is 25.8 kmpl depending upon the road conditions and how you are driving the car.

If I need to point out few cons of the car the first thing is the rear seat space. Even though 3 people can fit in easily it's best suited for two. The gigantic A piller provides you a decent blind spot. The stiffer suspension set up enables bit of of those rough road undulations creep in to cabin but at the same time this setup is the main factor behind the rock solid stability of the car. But again all the above mentioned are not deal breakers. Ecosport is really a wonderful companion.

Being a car enthusiast I wanted my car to stand out from the crowd so customised her a little bit and named her BLACK PANTHER because of the all black theme and thats what gives the car a butch look. The stock grille at the front has been replaced with a Raptor style grille with LED lights in them. The Ford lettering on the grille has also been blacked out. Coming down to the bumper, it still has the stock silver finished skid plate and a red coloured dummy tow hook is also installed at the front. Coming to the side profile, the main noticeable change here is the Plati 8 J 16 inch concave wheels and the tyre size has also been upsized from 205 to 225. I have upgraded the brake pads to bosch sintered pads to give the car a better bite and stopping power. The brake calipers are painted in race red colur to go well with the overall aggressive look of the CSUV. Apart from those, it gets  blindspot mirrors, Thule ProRide Replica Mounts along with FASS crossbars on the roof and F1 number plates. All the labels on the EcoSport have been removed and the headlights and tail lights are smoked. The headlight now gets projector HID lamps. Just like the exterior it also follows an all-black theme interior where the seatcovers are redone from FASS (faux leather), Black floor lamination. The work on this project had started during the lockdown earlier this year.

To conclude as the tagline says a car with "Family Waali Feeling"

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!
