CHANGES AFOOT FOR THE ASPIRE. WE’RE A GRATEFUL LOT

- Raunak Ajinkya

The Ford Aspire has always had a case to make. It’s a thoroughly likeable compact sedan that will do the job for most on most counts. The fact that the numbers haven’t quite justified the machine is a bit of a sad tale, but with the onset of a refresh, that could just tilt things in its favour.

So without wasting much more time, what you see on these pages is the freshened up Aspire for 2018. Notice that grille and those nice chrome inserts around the chin? That’s new. The 15-inchers all around are new as well. The Aspire now runs 195/55 R15s that helps fill out those arches a lot more and, as a result, it sits a lot better and is visually much more distinct.
