Ford India has made an interesting move which has surprised the country all of a sudden. There was no pre launch buzz, teaser images, spy shots and not even any announcement so far. The classic ‘Classic’ sedan of Ford has been launched in the Indian market again and this time the model has carried a wide range of exclusive features with it. In spite of offering so many upgraded features, Ford has slashed down the price of ‘Classic’ sedan 2014 in order to tackle with the heavy competition in the segment.

Mr. Vinay Piparsania, the Executive Director of Marketing for Ford India’s Sales and Service division has stated in connection with the launch of 2014 Classic sedan “At Ford India, we are committed to deliver on customer expectations by continuous improvements in the value proposition of our products. In line with our global brand promise of ‘Go Further’, Ford India has repositioned the Ford Classic by optimizing efficiencies. Ford Classic is a fun to drive, full sized sedan that is renowned for its spacious cabin and fuel efficient power trains. The repositioning will make the Ford Classic an even more compelling product for customers across India looking to move up to a great sedan.”
