Have a look at the table below.

In the petrol engine lineup, the price of the base variant (1.2-litre petrol Ambiente MT) has been increased by Rs 8,000. The other petrol variants - Titanium MT, Titanium Blu MT and the 1.5-litre Titanium AT have seen a price drop of Rs 39,000, Rs 29,000 and Rs 39,000, respectively. Even in the diesel department, only the base Ambiente has seen a hike of Rs 18,000. The other two, Titanium and Titanium Blu, have both seen a price drop of Rs 29,000 and Rs 19,000, respectively.
The Figo facelift was launched with three engine options: The 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol makes 96PS of power and 120Nm of peak torque. This engine comes with a 5-speed manual and a claimed efficiency of 20.4kmpl. The 1.5-litre petrol makes 123PS of power and 150Nm of peak torque. It comes mated to a 6-speed torque converter with a claimed efficiency of 16.3kmpl. The diesel, however, is the same as the old one. The 1.5-litre diesel makes 100PS of power and 215Nm of peak torque. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission and a claimed efficiency of 25.5kmpl.
This price drop should help the Figo become more competitive in the market against rivals like the Hyundai Grand i10 and the Maruti Swift. Among the three, the Swift sold 14,218 units in March, the Grand i10 sold 7,225 units, whereas the Figo was only able to find 691 homes. It will be interesting to see if buyers prefer the Figo over its rivals with the new prices.
