Ford Developing New Figo For 2014 Launch

This new car being developed under the project name Value-B) will be a compact hatchback based on Ford's global car platform. The Ford Value-B will replace the Ford Ka and is also expected to spawn a sedan version that can replace the Ford Classic sedan.
The new Ford Figo will have a fresh new sporty design which has been inspired from the recently unveiled new Fusion. The rear design of the new Figo will have some interesting elements with a boomerang shaped tail lamp cluster. Ford is expected to make changes to the interiors of the car too. The new Figo should get some of the modern and user friendly features.
Looking in to the technical aspects of the new Figo, reports say it will be getting the petrol and diesel engines from the EcoSport. The one litre EcoBoost engine of the EcoSport's petrol variant has already been appreciated for its powerful performance and fuel economy. The engine nad generate 69PS of power and 102Nm of toque. The diesel engine in the new Ford Figo will be 1.4-litre TDCi which can deliver a peak power of 75PS and 154Nm of torque.
We expect the new Figo will be available with just the five speed manual gear box. It will be a pleasant surprise if we get an auto box too. Ford India had earlier stated that it will be launching eight new cars in India. The new Ford Figo will be definitely on this list.
There are rumours about the current Ford Figo being retained as an entry level car for Ford with the 2014 version placed above it.
