Ford is prepping a new ‘Sports’ variant of the Ford
Figo and Ford Aspire models. The Figo Sports has been spied at what seems to be a dealership yard by
Thrustzone.
Both the Figo Sports and Aspire Sports are likely to
share the same cosmetic changes, which has been revealed in new spy shots of
the former. The exterior gets a gloss black mesh grille, gloss black foglamp
bezels, black alloy rims (seem to be 14 inchers), black ORVM caps, a black
moulding across the side profile, and a roof spoiler.
The interior has not been revealed, but we expect it
to feature exclusive seat covers, leather-wrapped steering wheel and a
touchscreen infotainment system from the Ford EcoSport Platinum. Its unclear
if the Aspire Sports will stick the beige and black cabin colour combination or
a black interior to match the exterior.
The Figo and Aspire’s engine lineup include a
1.2-liter Ti-VCT petrol, a 1.5-liter Ti-VCT petrol paired to a 6-speed
Powershift dual-clutch transmission, and a 1.5-liter TDCi diesel engine power
the small car. We are not sure whether all three engine options will be
available for the Sports variant.
