New Ford Ikon will be out in few hours. But before that let’s preview the car, as expected Ford has given the new ikon diesel very minimal exterior changes. New ikon gets grille less front with a meatier bumper for the mean look. Kinked headlmaps and semi transparent tail lamps are the visual differentiator over the current one. Come inside the new Ikon you will first notice the redesigned instrument cluster with clear dials. New CD player with in-built MP3 player is sure to add attractive quotient of the new Ikon.
In addition to the ROCAM engine, new Ikon gets a duratorq (TDCi) diesel. The 1.4L diesel engine churns out 68PS of peak power at 4000rpm and 160Nm of max torque at 2000rpm. The engine is very frugal while thirsting your adrenaline. You read it right, Ford says that it has also reworked the suspension setup, steering geometry and NVH in the new Ikon diesel for sporty driving. Dimensionally the new ikon diesel is 1mm taller than the gasoline powered new Ikon. ‘Diesel’ Badging in the place of ikon flair is another exclusive for new Ikon diesel. New ikon will be available in seven colours. Ford is offering side skirts, reversing parking sensor, remote boot release kit,sporty seat covers,neck rest and floor mats as accessories for the new Ikon.
