Ford Figo Ambiente or Trend - Which trim should you choose?
By Farzana Chaumoo
The differences between the Figo Ambiente and the Figo Trend derivatives are mainly cosmetic. The Trend benefits from features such as electric windows, chrome finishes, fog lights and alloy wheels.
We compare the Ford Figo 1.5 Ambiente MT Hatch against the Figo 1.5 Trend MT Hatch. The Ambiente is the standard derivative and has a price that starts from R182,900 whereas the Trend gets a few added features and starts at R192,900. If you're contemplating between the two options and wondering what to get, our suggestion would be to get the Trend model, if you can afford it.
Here's what you get for an additional R10,000 on the Trend:
