Recently Asked User Questions
- Titanium Plus has 6 Airbags and some perks like SYNC3 Infotainmet System which is the best among the cars in segment.But, if you want to upgrade your Upholstery, like Leather seat covers then you will not be able to do so in the Plus variant as it has Airbags embedded in Front Seats. You may go with Titanium and spend around 10K for Seat Covers and Automatic Headlamps and Automatic Wipers which is there in the Plus model.
- With the price difference of about 60k on-road in Bangalore, you will get 6 airbags, rain sensing wipers and smart voice assistant infotainment system. Rest features are mostly same. It's your call.
- Titanium plus because even if you make a decision to put the other accessories aftermarket it might cost more than a lakh...its better to go for the plus...
- Figo is been one of the star performer product from Ford. It's is still a very good choice for city driving. Build quality is very good, it's easy to drive, engines are refined in both , petrol and Diesel. Freestyle is carries the same engines as of Figo, but it's different by nature. Figo is considered a city car but freestyle is an all rounder. The rise quality of freestyle is as comfortable on bad stretch as in city. Suspension is very good, handling is superb, safety features are fantastic, and to top it, it possess "ARP" anti rollover prevention. Figo and freestyle serves different purposes.If you only drive in city you can go for Figo, else freestyle should be your choice.
- No. In fact, there is a sports edition of Figo that is not mentioned in Zigwheels. It features the same engine options as Freestyle.But, if you are looking for good offroad performance and safety, then Freestyle will be a better choice.
- Freestyle is better in power and mileage with its dragon engine (same as in ecosport but in 1.2k cc).Touch infotainment screen in freestyle is missing in figo.Higher ground clearance in freestyle makes it better than figo.
- If you have the money go for the top end Titanium plus petrol variant of freestyle. It is real value for money and loaded with all necessary features. I bought it after extensive research
- If you want petrol choose titanium good build quality and good for short distances anywhere
- Go for freestyle top end freestyle is best

I'm a proud Ford Freestyle Titanium Plus Diesel owner and I'm sharing my experience with you. So sit back relax and have a look. If you're one who is concerned or looking for great build quality, outstanding safety features, beautiful ride and handling, excellent suspension setup, brilliant steering feedback, extreme power and performance from the engine, marvellous fuel economy, so much economical after-sales service, and a complete package of practicality. Overall a wonderful package out in the market. But, If you're the one looking for fancy features such as LEDs, DRL(Daytime Running Light), projectors, then go for it, it's a practical car, it's not like the only show on go. Everything has some pros and cons, so here we are with cons now, Little low boot space. Other than that it's one of the most lovable products, if don't believe then do drive one by yourself.

best value for money. I testdrived baleno, i20, altroz and freestyle and finally bought freestyle. Hill launch, ESP, Traction control and good ground clearance with best handling and power and least maintenance cost annually(maruti twice in year. ford's 10 year annual maintenance bill is already provided by ford. you jst pay that amount. no more extra cost) and 6 air bags too. what more you can get in this price range?. you can fit philips xtreme vision for headlight. it is plug and play. freestyle is a definite buy.

It's amazing car(diesel and petrol both) I have taken test drive of I20, Maruti Suzuki swift, grand10, even brezza too but ford freestyle was very fun to drive due to its powerful engine , amazing pickup and power delivery. Good for hill station too, this is best car in the segment. You must go for it.
