Just like the 2017 Ford Figo S, there aren’t any changes in the specifications of the Aspire S either. So, you get the same 1.2 L and 1.5 L Diesel engines that power the regular car. We are not too happy that the 1.5 TiVCT with excellent Dual Clutch Autmatic transmission is not available with the S variant, but the 1.5 Diesel, which is quite a powerhouse of an oil burner, should validate the sporty aspirations of the new 2017 Aspire S. The Aspire S comes with a tweaked suspension for sportier road handling.
Ford Aspire S Mileage
| Engine Type | 1.2 L Petrol | 1.5 L Diesel |
| City | 14 KMPL | 17 KMPL |
| Highway | 17 KMPL | 21 KMPL |
| ARAI | 18.12 KMPL | 24.29 KMPL |
While the specifications are the same as before, the fuel mileage figures are slightly lower. This is due to the added weight and beefier tyres.
Ford Aspire Sports Features
- 15-inch Alloy Wheels
- All-black Interior
- Headlamps with black inserts
- ‘S’ decals
- Sportier Suspension settings
Unlike the Figo S, the sports edition Aspire S does not get black alloy wheels or a honeycomb grille, which means the Aspire S retains the same grille as the standard variants of the compact sedan. However, the grille does come without the chrome finish. Another highlight is the all-black interior for the Aspire S. The regular Aspire offers a black-beige combo.
