Our take on this /// Verdict

The Ford Aspire Diesel Trend is a compelling choice for those seeking a balance of performance, comfort, and reliability. My experience with this vehicle has been overwhelmingly positive, particularly in terms of its ride quality and engine performance. The 1.5-litre diesel engine, producing 100 PS and 215 Nm of torque, offers a powerful and pleasing driving experience, making it ideal for both city commutes and long road trips. The suspension is excellent, handling potholes and broken surfaces with ease, and the automatic climate control is top-notch, cooling the cabin rapidly. However, its worth noting that headroom can be an issue for taller drivers. Overall, the Aspire Diesel Trend stands out for its comfortable ride, strong engine, and lesser maintenance costs compared to some of its competitors.

Price

The Ford Aspire Diesel Trend is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom price for this variant starts at around Rs 7.98 lakh in Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other charges, the price can go up to approximately Rs 9.3 lakh to Rs 9.5 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. Given the features and performance it offers, the Aspire Diesel Trend provides good value for money, especially considering its robust build quality, comfortable seating, and advanced safety features like dual airbags and ABS with EBD.
