Ford Ikon User Reviews

Exterior Great mirror design though small in size. Strong body. Fairly decent back view for driver.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Decent interiors. Not so great mats etc.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Awesome performance. Sporty Gears. Fuel Economy is bad.

Ride Quality & Handling Awesome ride quality and handling. Excellent on highways.

Final Words For quality ride and sporty look and performance. Should have been little more fuel efficient. A/C doesn't reach the back seats quickly. Not at all comfortable for 3 people in the back seat.

Areas of improvement Fuel Efficiency, Driver seat height adjustment, door locks and stop water leakage from roof/doors. Decent horn please! Current version sounds like a scooter!

Can't write more and hence There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomized words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.

Exterior Excellent care in terms of looks.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Comfortable, spacious, little bit less space for three people at the back.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent performance. Great power. Highly stable at high speeds have driven up to 180 km per hour.. the car is very stable at that speed. Only bad part is the fuel consumption which hits pocket for regular drivers like me. Gearbox is smooth. But parts are very expensive.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent ride quality and handling.

Final Words Excellent car... if Ford could improve their after sales service it would be the best car in its class. We went for a lot of long drives, the most remarkable was Bangalore Dharmasthala Kuke Subramanya---coorg--- bangalore. This trip was most remarkable as the roads were mix of excellent roads and pathetic roads. The car was excellent in any type of road. No complaints what so ever.

Areas of improvement Spare parts price, fuel economy, after sales service. The service centres are pathetic.

The new shape has lost the aerodynamics compared to the excellent older shape causing stability issues at high speeds and high speed braking. Dual tone Beige seats are a sham..poor poor quality doesnt provide side support to back, specially felt while cornering. Poor quality fabric tends to get dirty. Boot opening from inside should be a standard fitment. Wiper blade rubber got detached within first 2 months. High engine noise level inside cabin, which might reduce after first 5000kms, when engine smoothens. Cost cutting measures are obvious in this model. Thats all about the negatives.

New vehicle yet to reach first service mileage and still fuel economy is superb, getting 11.6 kmpl on a daily rush hour run from Thane to Worli, 70Kms daily. AC is good with responsive controls. Fun to drive car within city. Highway driving is a slight suspect with aerodynamics & brakes not upto the mark. Steering is solid, though some may feel it a bit hard, but I like the road feel. Undercar is superb engineering, neat solid suspension & ground clearance. Over all a good package for the price. Huge boot space , Good family car. BUT mind it , you will certainly  have to get new seat covers and pay Rs. 5000 plus for the inside cabin boot opening system fitment. With all the security checks everywhere, its a pain to open the boot from outside. FORD INDIA, dont be so dumb to not offer this as a standard feature, pl. note that due to the lack of this feature, your vehicle was my 2nd choice and bought it only as other guy could not commit delivery.

Finally ... GOOD SOLID CAR but NOTHING SPECIAL TO FALL IN LOVE WITH.

Exterior Excelent ,sporty style, but i think its personal choice.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Double tone interior is good, enough space, comfortable driving postion,gives luxury feeling.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox As far engine is concerend, little bit noisy, when u look at its power an fuel efficiency, no car comes near ikon, smooth gearbox. i have driven for 2000kms n its improving by time.

Ride Quality & Handling Superb ride quality, handling is too good on highways. better than swift and vista . but ritz is as good as ikon in handling and ride quality.no doubt swift and ritz r good cars but why wait for long time if u r getting more than that.personaly think if u r goin to get a car, go to every car take test drive and then thinkabt it.from my experience,u must go with ur personal choice.

Final Words It took abt one n half months for me to decide btween ikon dzire, ritz, swift, vista. but frns who r confused btwen these cars, go for ikon without any hesitation.thnx to ford for makin a great car. Those who r confused here is my mail add asdeol24@gmail.com.

Areas of improvement Must come with music system.
