Ford Figo diesel was one of the best performers. My dad got a Ford Figo diesel from his company and he drove it for almost 150000-200000 kms(he had a job which required him to travel very much). When he retired from the company, he loved the Ford Figo diesel so much because of build quality and riding dynamics and reliability that he bought it again and again drove it for about 100000kms before selling it and buying Hyundai Creta Diesel manual. One of my uncle in my family is still using Ford Ecosport and he says that he loves that car because of the driving dynamics and the build quality. My dad was sad that Ford left India because he said that Figo and Ecosport were some of the best lineup Ford ever offered. It is very unfortunate that Foreign companies like Ford never adapt to the Indian market. Also the taxes are so high that some companies aren’t able to solve this high tax issue without offering sub-par quality cars.

If I simply simplify ‘Why Ford left India?’ It will go like: We Indians failed to recognise good built quality, steering dynamics, immaculate engines, and a near to perfect car when compared to gimmicks offered by other companies; and in this view Ford as a company thought even after offering what’s necessary-to-have features in the cars people are still going towards XYZ brands why care to upgrade our lineup? All in all, customers ne zyada gadi nahi li kyuki features nahi they Company sochti rehgyi ki market bhade to hum naye features & better vehicles daale.

I bought my Ecosport in August 2021 and they left in September. In these 2 years I continued getting my servicing from Ford with no hiccups and when I drive other cars, I feel Ford's aspirational value. There are countless times it has shown its pedigree of ride and handling. Talking about where they lacked: 1. Figo Aspire Freestyle were okayish products 2. ES needed cosmetic and feature updates 3. Endeavour should've been from Asian Markets and could use more power 4. A "C Segment SUV" with the best driving dynamics 5. A pickup truck

Actually, Ford hit their mark correctly with both the Fiesta and Figo. The thing is, they didn't keep up the massive advantage that they gained with them. Also, Ford failed to hold up the expectations of their hardcore fans as well. Ford fans said that the Ecosport steering rack felt more like a Hyundai steering rack, with a lesser feel (compared to what Ford would consistently deliver), and a fair amount of twitchiness at the dead-center position at speeds. Both of them unbecoming of a Ford. Thus, holding up neither the mass-market appeal, nor the "enthusiast" appeal, Ford began fading away from the market.

Ford had approached many manufacturers but nothing worked. I feel they should have stayed and brought their international products localised them. Unfortunately they left as their US headquarters took a decision. Sad but true. 💯🤘🏻

Floating entertainment system, when others had in dashboard. TMPS was on a 10 lkh vehicle 5 yrs back, and the list goes on and on. We failed ford in India . People loved tin boxes with high milage. Drive dynamics kon dekhta hai india main. Now tata has started to offer on Nexon but at a cost 1.5 times Ecosport priced. Mu frnd has creta. I drove that for almost 500 kms. Features loaded, drives like a car with 4 wheels and on pot holes and bad roads it bounces like a bullock cart. Horrible or can say boaring driving experience. Conclusion is : i love my Ecosport❤❤❤❤.. milage 12 ki hai but tank chalaneka maja alag hai boss.

Similar case is going to happen for MG. personal experience: MG Astor base model only cost 12 lks on road. What a car, features loaded, driving perfect, service good but people will go for creta and seltos. 😂😂.. Base Model : style, so check out.

I love my Ford Figo diesel 1.5 (2015), Performance, mileage, service, comfort all are best in the segment till now. But ford also discontinued the hatchback cars worldwide 🤔 😕 . We all now have forgotten 😪 fun to drive hatchback cars.

I miss the Figo 1.5 TDCI Diesel way too much. It was a rocket and handled very well. ❤❤❤. The build quality was top class. But, rightly said ,it missed out on a lot of important features, which the Swift and i10 offered.

End of the day engine is more important than the features...just a touchscreen audio, reverse parking cam will do the business but our ppl are so obsessed about sunroof, auto ac, start stop system, keyless entry etc etc

We had the same model bought brand new on 2012, we still use it as our main car. Till now it dosen't had any body sound, engine is super reliable, during those 12 years we din't have any engine problem. What a fantastic car.

@@vijayendranvijay4538 Correct. For me as an enthusiast, I miss the Figo Diesel just because of its engine, handling and built quality. Sadly, for the rest who were looking for VFM, Figo was just not the right choice for them and hence preferred the Swift or i10.

Own a 2017 figo aspire petrol and m still not stopping to test the limits to 160-170... the body strength and stability still unbeatable.

Think of an updated version of figo/freestyle, less curvy and more sporty with creases, DRLs and all. Oh my I can't stop imagining. WV has stopped selling polo and this vehicle could have taken the spot of India's hot hatch 😢

It's very simple. Ford did not make or get vehicles of Indian customer taste . It did not evolve with time . Ford only concentrated in other markets.

Ford should have launched a competition car for Creta… then they would have survived.

I am using my fifth IKON, unlike other foreign companies, they neve compromise interms of quality, the service centers and the local mechanics who are unable to repair Ford gives free advise not to buy, people who never touched Ford gives free advice on not to buy..still my 14 yrs old ikon goes above 160..I am also using another car but still Ford is the best, I am just gonna keep it..come what may..once driving on road near a diversion, a politician roll down his window in fortuner, asked me ..is ikon goes this much fast?..he was cruising at 140..I over took him at 160., Spares a big issue..but will manage.
