Ford Figo Aspire can be replaced by the Figo Concept. TATA Kite sedan can be replaced by CS.

But Chevy and VW can be added and a new poll can be restarted by eliminating the lowest polled 2 0r 3 cars.
this thread is active of ford figo aspire but votes are not increasing dramatically people still waiting for its pricing but I guess that the price will be marginally more then Honda Amaze

can any one help me to put some detailed mega comparision of these hot sedans?

Figo price it more than Amaze, then I am sure it will not sell in good numbers. I mean, people have respect for Ford, but their A.S.S still doesn't get fame like Japanese giants! So I guess they should price it somewhere between Xcent and Amaze!

I think it is now time to declare that Zest and Bolt are the latest Duds for Tata. They should retrospect and not take the feedback lightly.

No point in bringing changes to new cars if the exterior changes are not dramatic.

Proves again it is difficult to gain customer acceptance once you have images created from the initial fiasco of the Indica release days!

Ford Figo Aspire vs Maruti Dzire vs Honda Amaze vs Hyundai Xcent vs Tata Zest – Comparo

Dimensions:

All cars in this segment measure 3,995 mm in length, save for the Amaze which comes in at 3,990 mm. At 1,695 mm in width, the Figo Aspire and the Maruti Dzire are the second widest cars in their segment. However, at 2,491 mm the Figo Aspire is the new benchmark in the wheelbase department, followed by the Zest and Dzire.
The Xcent and Amaze lead with their 400+ liter boots, while the Figo Aspire comes close to the Zest’s 360 liter trunk. The Dzire continues to offer the least at 315 liters.

Petrol:

Ford India will offer the Figo Aspire with a 1.2-liter Ti-VCT and a 1.5-liter Ti-VCT paired exclusively to its 6-speed Powershift DCT gearbox, the most advanced in this segment. Hence, the 1.2L Aspire makes 88 PS similar to the Amaze, whereas the 1.5L model has a class-leading 112 PS of power.
Thanks to its turbocharger, the Zest makes the highest torque in this segment at 140 Nm, but even the 1.2L Aspire is up there with its competition. In the fuel efficiency department however, the Dzire continues to lead with a 20.85 km/l ARAI-rated mileage.

Diesel:

The 1.5-liter TDCi diesel engine on the Figo Aspire makes 100 PS, on par with the Amaze, making them the most powerful cars in this segment. At 215 Nm, the Figo Aspire generates the most torque as well. All cars get a 5-speed manual transmission save for the Zest which also gets a 5-speed AMT as an option.
The Figo Aspire has outpaced the Amaze on the fuel efficiency front, with an ARAI-rated 25.83 km/l figure. However, like in the petrol segment, the Dzire continues to lead in this department with a class-leading 26.59 km/l.

So, Xcent, score over Amaze, yet again :) . . . Zest seems to be a nice Option, but lagging way behind in Sales. When I bought my Xcent, 1.2 Petrol, Zest was being launched. If I had delayed my decision, even by couple of days, I would have gone for Zest. But definitely not Dzire, as it's just too Common, and not Amaze, as it's not feature rich car. In that terms, Xcent was the best choice, for a moderate driver/user, without going into much details of BPH/RPM/PTW ratio, etc.

I think the brand value plays a role but down the line Tata might look back at zest as a proposition where they let their hearts in. I still believe that the zest might go further running a moderate sale unlike cars that are dead to consider. We need to consider the ford figo aspire, Fronx, Figo, and some cars which are out to release in this festival season might take away the sales but zest owners will never feel lost out in the crowd.

Since the 333 confidence offer for zest got over by July 31st. Any news about the new offer that is going to replace it? or they're going to stop all offers? I dont think so since this period is so crucial for auto manufacturers before the festival period kick ins ... The sales are going to be dull. I think they need to pour in offers to tempt people who are waiting to buy one in this festival period.

Exactly, festive season will slowly kick in atleast ONAM is fast approaching in KERALA and if TML needs to revive ZEST and BOLT numbers then definitely they will have to pull out some fantastic offers. I am seriously thinking of purchasing a ZEST diesel and as already pointed out 333 scheme got over on 31st July. The dealer was trying his luck very hard to convince me do the booking last week but i am ready to wait here. I have asked to get me more offers and hopefully TML will listen to me.

I've asked tata motors about the offer expired and information on any new offers, They replied that:

thank you for writing to us, Currently we don't have on going offers but stay tuned to our pages to know more on the same.

Hoping for some juicy news. Let's see. The only offer that is currently undergoing is book a zest between 20th july - 25th August and stand a chance to win a trip to Los Angeles :P

Got a call from the dealer today morning. According to him, 333 offer will continue for this month + 25k exchange bonus. I may do a booking in couple of days.

Good to hear that they upped the exchange bonus, May i know the details of your booking? Like which variant you're planning to book and how much savings you're getting on the whole [clap]
