Ford Figo is not just a popular car in the automobile market of India, but it is one of the best hatchback cars. Perfect for a small family, this car features new headlamps and tail lamps along with laminated glazed windscreen, which adds to its style and elegance. The only demerit of this car is that the Dual front Airbags is Available only in the Higher-end Variant. Nevertheless, according to me this car is a good choice and is quite affordable.
