The Figo hatch descends straight from the philosophy of the Figo Aspire sedan which was launched just a few months ago. But thanks to the weight it has shed from the back, it’s about 20kg lighter than its sedan sibling.

We recently got a chance to drive both the Diesel and Petrol Automatic versions of the car along with Vikram Gour from MotorScribes and we think that the new Figo has got what it takes to compete with the likes of Hyundai’s i20, Maruti Suzuki’s Swift and Ritz and also Honda’s new Jazz.
