ausrutherford Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Ford halted sales of the “Ka” in South Africa 18 months ago and since then the entry-level passenger car segment hasn’t seen a contestant from them. In the third quarter of this year, that sentence will not make sense as Ford is preparing to take on the budget car market segment once again with the introduction of the Indian-made Figo. Ford sells the Bantam in SA which is the pickup truck based on the Ikon. The Indian connection hence is already present. Ford Motor Company of Southern Africa (FMCSA) president and CEO Jeffery Nemeth - Having a new entry in the segment that is expected to recover the fastest will definitely provide us with some advantages. http://indianautosblog.com/2010/02/ford-figo-will-be-introduced-in-sa-this-year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
