Ford Classic LXi

Thursday, 12 July 2012 10:05 AM The Ford Classic, previously known as the Ford Fiesta Classic, has been re-launched with minor design upgrades and new features. The car now includes a new set of alloys, a boot spoiler, and minor exterior tweaks. Inside, it features black plastics with aluminum inserts, front and rear fog lamps, a rear defogger, and a music system with Bluetooth connectivity. Prices start at Rs 5.53 lakh for the base petrol variant. I believe these updates make the Ford Classic a more attractive and affordable option in the Indian market.

Thursday, 12 July 2012 04:20 PM Ford India has re-positioned the Ford Classic as their entry-level sedan in the C-Segment space. The car is available with a 1.6 liter petrol engine and a 1.4 liter turbo diesel engine, known for its reassuring build and excellent driving dynamics. Despite its dated looks and cramped rear seat, the Ford Classic remains a viable option for driving enthusiasts on a budget. Prices start at Rs 5.53 lakh for the petrol base variant and Rs 6.80 lakh for the diesel base variant. I think the Classics performance and affordability make it a strong contender in its segment.

Thursday, 12 July 2012 07:32 PM The Ford Classic 1.4 Duratorq LXI variant offers a mileage of 19.68 kmpl and generates 67 bhp of power at 4000 rpm. It comes with a manual transmission, MacPherson strut front suspension, and twist beam rear suspension. Safety features include child safety locks, door ajar warning, and an engine immobilizer. The car is priced at Rs 6.59 lakhs. I believe the fuel efficiency and safety features of this variant make it a good choice for those looking for a reliable sedan.

Thursday, 12 July 2012 06:54 PM Ford India has managed to reduce the prices of the Ford Classic by incorporating parts and features from their popular hatchback, the Figo. This move has made the Classic more competitive in the market, with the top-end diesel variant priced at Rs 8.47 lakh. The car retains its engine and variant options, including both petrol and diesel engines. I think this pricing strategy will help Ford attract more customers in the Indian market.

Thursday, 12 July 2012 12:00 PM The Ford Classic has seen significant changes since its initial launch as the Ford Fiesta sedan in 2005. When the new Ford Fiesta was introduced in 2011, the old model was re-badged as the Ford Fiesta Classic and later as the Ford Classic. This re-branding has allowed Ford to keep the model relevant and competitive in the market. I believe this strategy has helped extend the life of a well-regarded vehicle.
