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

Seltos4.7A car that tries to tick
A car that tries to tick all the boxes - that’s how i would like to describe the new kia seltos facelift.With looks to die for on the exterior and a stylish interior, My model of choice htx + has some of the most advanced features that the discerning owner would like to have in his car.Let me go through some of the features that pushed me into buying this suv.-panoramic sunroof that is expansive and smooth - gorgeous twin panels for infotainment and driver information - ventilated front seats - wireless charging - powered 8 way adjustment driver seat - uv cut glasses - automatic dimming rear view mirror - front and rear park assist - microbes free pure air filter - dual zone climate control ac- bose speakers with woofer - ambient lights - cruise control - kia connect features the list goes on and on ….In fact i am yet to test out all the features even after 20 days of ownership.That shows how many features the car has ! the only thing that i regret is my decision to go for an imt gear shift without doing proper research.The biggest problem is that the car often forces me to downshift to a lower gear even though i believe that it should be able to move in current gear.It also results in losing momentum while i shift to a lower gear after car refuses to engage the current gear.Yet to come to terms with the driving system of imt.Maybe i should have opted for an automatic, Especially since there is hardly much of a difference in mileage.The car has been returning a decent average of around 11kmpl in city driving full of traffic.Look forward to take it out for a highway spin and find out the real world mileage on a highway.All in all, If you like your car to be high tech and a looker, Then look no further and go for it !.

Seltos4.3I have recently buyed Seltos
I have recently buy seltos 2023 htx ivt from ghaziabad on road 1909000 approx.Car looks good and feels good from interiors.The na engine works fine however if you need the feel to press the pedal hard i would suggest please go for the turbo petrol variant.Pros :- 1) engine is refined and cabin feels silent2) panoramic sunroof is awesome the best in this segment.Even the window blind is thicker.3) arkamys sound quality is good and does the job with 6 speaker setup.4) cup holder at rear seat, Idle start stop in traffic is a savior.5) for mileage yes if you drive on cruise in between 60-90 you can easily get a mileage of 19-20 kmpl however if you will push the accelerator or drive in city it will give only 10-12 kmpl.6) dual zone climate ac is first in segment to be offered and performance is good.7) drive and traction modes are available in automatic variants.Cons:1) ivt has a lag in automatic transmission, You can reduce it while driving in sport mode however it will eat up the fuel.2) under thigh support in back seat is ok can be improved.3) standard safety features have been introduced from all variants however the ncap rating not sure if it has improved.
