Ford launched the next-generation Figo hatchback in India yesterday. This calls for a quick specs comparo between the segment rivals.
Before the EcoSport, the Figo used to be the bread & butter model for Ford in India. The next-generation model has tough expectations to meet, both from the customers & for the company.
Let’s see how it fares against competition on paper…
