Pleasure to drive
8 years ago | Rahul
Let me start with an area unknown or the one of the few warnings I was given by my friends while buying the car. Ford service: Well I just had the two free services and the experience was very good in terms of time commitment and the bills were very low as far as I remeber.

Exterior Car looks great.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Seats are very comfortable. My friends un aware of this car liked the seat comfort when they were in. AC is very good, powerful I would say. Even with AC car feels adequately powered, thanks to the powerfull engine. Music system on mid variant lacks USB port and steering controls, but sounds amazing, AUX is always there. Not many features or controls on the steering wheel and the panel. Rear seat is very comfy for two and moderately comfortable for three.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Just completed 3,500kms on this car. Initially the acceleration was low compared to what I expected (may be the parts take time to free-up), but now the car just zooms. I really dont calculated the fuel economy in the city (Bangalore) due to traffic, bad roads etc.. On the highway, with AC I get 14-15kms/l - very long drive and in power mode 100-110km/hr, without worrying about the driving style i.e., accelerate fast go and keep over 80 when you can. Gear knob gets little rough after few hundred kms and needs to be lubricated (the only reason for my 4* star rating). Otherwise car lifts adequately at low speeds without much gear shifting.

Ride Quality & Handling Suspension is bit stiff, but that improves handling and loweres body roll I guess. Handling is excellent. I just love the steering feedback, you feel so engaged in driving.

Final Words I found very limited reviews but went ahead with Ford and The Classic because of the excellent specs for its price. And, I'm happy with the decision so far.

Areas of improvement The only thing I dont like about the car is the noise, not the engine noise, but the thuds you get on sudden bumps ((the only reason for my 4* star rating for interiors).
Excellent handling, very good pick upNoise isolation

Exterior good and catchy. Company provide with good range of high qualoty colours specialy red and blue .A Sober sedan looks. Back lamps appear to be bit old fashioned. but on the whole 3.5 starsis all it deserve for exteriors.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Well equiped dash. with apprecialbe storage space. instrument cluster is good and looks more digital. good system of lights inside. Music system is Awesome with very very good sound at low and high volume . A good balance of treble and bass. Seats are comfortable than amaze ad Dezire specially. though a bit less space at back there is no problem in long journeys( I am 5'11" and comfortably travelled 500 km up down in single day at back seat not much problem). Seats are good and comfortable. interior fabric quality is also good. on the whole a good and spacious interior for the price

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is good with a good comression ratio. sound is good. never go with the economy given by company. it depends on how you drive. I get economy of 10-14 in delhi with ac and about18-20 on highway eith ac.(petrol). engine power is awesome. i had clocked the car190kmph on NH24 with 6adults in the car. but dont expect mileage at speed above 130kmph only about 12-14 or might be lower

Ride Quality & Handling Smooth ride quality. a good suspension. No sounds and vibrations inside. A very smooth ride at even160-170kmph.

Final Words On the whole if you want driving pleasure at low or high speed at low budget of 7lakh gor for the package. As a family car it is also good. Atleast try test drive of it and dezire also you will opt this only. no service problem A bit costly but affordable. car require service every 6 months and one has not to go for service in between again.

Areas of improvement NA.

Agood powerful engine with more than enough torque and well tuned gear ratios.A bit less space in rear seats for those who are 6' or 5'11"or 12"
