The world is famous for,"Selling outdated stuff in new packets." But thats not the exact case with the Ikon TDCi. Its the other way. Fiesta's 1.4l TDCi engine which is highly economical and has an amazing performance is now even mounted on the Ikon chassis. And the Ikon has been face lifted.

The car is a reasonably good. The hood of the car somewhat reminds me of the Hyundai Accent. The rear end has been done neatly. The handles in the new Ikon are much better than than in the older version. The car as always is comfortable.

The interiors of the car are neat. Though I didn't like the quality of the plastic used. It could have been much better. Everything comes at a price and this is one living example. The A/C as always is powerful, with a high speed blower fan and a highly efficient compressor.

This car has a very powerful heart,like all the latest diesel engines. The chassis is very well designed to take up the load and the car handles very well. the mileage of the car is also impressive.

I have purchased Newly launched IKON TDCI on 24th Nov.2008.Till now I have driven it about 4400 kms.The car is value for money.High fuel efficient,I have experienced it around 22 kmpl,with a/c on & without a/c on both.I think that at this price NO CAR is avillable in Indian Market which can perorm like NEW IKON TDCI.
