Ford launch India-spec 2018

Ford has revealed the India-spec 2018 Aspire facelift and has opened bookings for the updated model. Booking amount for the Aspire facelift is set at Rs 11,000 and we expect prices to start from around Rs 5.5 lakh. The current pre-facelift Aspire starts from Rs 5.72 lakh

The 1.2-litre Dragon series petrol engine which powers the Ford Freestyle is expected to feature on the Aspire facelift too. In the Freestyle, the 3-cylinder engine makes 96PS of maximum power, which is 8PS more than what the current 1.2-litre engine on the Aspire makes. At 120Nm, this engine makes 8Nm more.

The 6.5-inch touchscreen system will support both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, like on the Ford Freestyle. There will be two USB sockets accompanying the 12V socket just ahead of the gear lever now.
