I hope ford does an indigo CS on their ikon.
Was thinking of the same possibility. However, the Ford Ikon is 4140 mm in length (According to Autocar India). That means they would have to lose almost 6 inches to bring it under the 4 m magic figure! That is next to impossible with just a bumper trim job. This would require a major redesign and re tooling which would probably offset the cost benefit anyway.We can still keep our fingers crossed though! BTW, can anyone post how many mm Ford shaved off the Fusion to bring it under 4 m? I believe that was purely a redesigned bumper job.Suhail
