Ford Freestyle - Rs.2-3 Lakh Cheaper Than i20 Active And WRV

Ford India has launched another affordable product to hit the jackpot in terms of sales. Ford Freestyle is more than an inflated bodysuit, rather it perfectly combines form and function. Honestly, if you look back past 4-5 years, many carmakers have tried their luck in this cross-hatch category, but without much success. Freestyle is a lot more different than Polo Cross and Etios Cross but comes shoulder to shoulder with Hyundai i20 Active and Honda WR-V. There is a lot of genuine bits to talk about including company's new 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol engine and new 5-speed manual transmission. Among the most interesting aspects of this car, Freestyle is the lightest (about 200 kg) when we compare it to Honda WR-V and Hyundai i20 Active. It's also the most powerful in the lot when we compare the diesel engine and also the most fuel efficient when we compare the petrol engines. And the most vital aspect of this car that has knocked the breath out of its rivals is the aggressive pricing. Where prices of Hyundai i20 Active starts at Rs. 7.0 lakh and goes up to 10.01 lakh, Honda WR-V falls in the range of Rs. 7.78 - 10.0 Lakh, much higher than the Rs. 5.09 - 7.89 Lakh range of Ford Freestyle. Isn't it an amazing feat? At this price, you are getting a solid build quality, nice safety cover, powerful and fuel-efficient engine as well as no compromise on style and comfort. In my opinion, Ford has done a wonderful job and this car would rock the sales chart.
