2018 Ford Fiesta
These are the first photos of Ford’s
next Fiesta supermini, scheduled to hit the market in the second half of 2017.
The new generation of the popular
supermini model is expected to grow slightly in size and in price in order to
make room for the upcoming KA+ model which will be positioned under it.
Ford wants the KA+ to play the role of a
cheaper city car to rival models like the Dacia Sandero, allowing them at the
same time to push the Fiesta upwards in the segment.
The upgrade will also bring a bump in
the quality of the materials used in the cabin, better refinement and more
features in order to stay on top of the sales charts. Expect a large
touchscreen display with Ford’s latest SYNC3 infotainment system packing the
latest connectivity and entertainment features.
Despite the heavy camouflage, we can see
that new 2017 Ford Fiesta will adopt a more mature design, following the
footsteps of the Focus. The wider headlights and the horizontal taillights help
the Fiesta look wider than it really is. The front hexagonal grille will also
grow in width, giving the car a squarer nose.
Engine-wise, Ford will offer the latest
generation of EcoBoost engines under the bonnet, meaning a range of
turbocharged three- and four-cylinder engines.
