If the Ford Kuga was as bad a name as "Yaris" then how about the new one:
Ford FIGO (TM 1261138) & FIGO (TM 1261140)

Don't know any details, however, going by the trend, alot of small Ford Euro cars have been going by the 4 letter names lately:
FIGO (if it is one) KUGA LYNX C-MAX S-MAX (Not so small) B-MAX ISIS (Different to the IOSIS) etc... Could just be coincidence...

FIGO? Forced Induction & GO
Yeah another craptacular name, atleast Ford isnt as bad as Buick & Nissan. Cant see why they cant name cars after something cool. It reminds me of the simpsons episode where Homer designs a car for his brother and they want to call it the Persephone. "People dont want cars named after dead greek broads... they want cool names like Mustang & Cheetah"
