    DRIVING:

    Exterior

     very well crafted kinetic design, spacings between openings can be designed little smarter with the addition of rubber linings and the like. Boot design should be little more down-lined to increase the rear visibility issues.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     everything is better than comprable models except rear leg room. Comfort is good for the driver and front passenger but not so well for the rear passengers. Independent suspensions are a good improvement.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

    Nothing to complain, really. All good in this section for a 1.5L engine although the fuel economy is not what Ford claims (based on ARAI). In reality, the fuel economy in the City is not leading in its class.

    Ride Quality & Handling

     very good and comprable to rest of the competition in the similar entry-level sedan range.

    Final Words

     Only disappointment is pricing. If Ford priced it little more competitive to the other makes in the same segment, it would have been the top choice.

    Areas of improvement  

    Base  Price, rear visibility, rear leg room

     

    kinetic style, fuel economy, comfort, improved suspension, featuresprice range for all variants, rear leg room, rear visibility and blind spots
