Ford New Mondeo ST-Line
The newest addition to Ford's recently
unveiled ST-Line range is the Mondeo ST-Line, boasting sports suspension and
styling, unique alloys and a sporty interior.
During the 2016 Goodwood Festival of
Speed, the Mondeo ST-Line will be joining the Fiesta ST-Line and the Focus
ST-Line on display, alongside several other performance vehicles, including the
new Fiesta ST200 and even the Ford GT Le Mans race car.
Customers will be able to order their
Mondeo ST-Line in both five-door as well as estate form, with Ford
Performance-inspired styling that includes a new gloss black honeycomb design
for the upper & lower front grilles, LED daytime running lights, a front
bumper lip spoiler and body-colored sculptured side-skirts, sports rear bumper
with a high-gloss black diffuser-style insert, silver tailpipe surrounds,
ST-Line badging on the front fenders and a unique choice of 18" and
19" alloys.
Inside, the sports seats come with
unique red stitching, in addition to the perforated leather ST-style steering
wheel and black interior door appliques. Manual transmission models will get a
sports gear knob, whereas Estates come with a rear roof spoiler as standard. If
you go for the five-door version, the rear roof spoiler is only available as an
optional extra.
Similar to other models in the ST-Line
range, the Mondeo ST-Line can only be ordered with high-power engines,
complimenting the enhanced dynamics which result from the car sitting closer to
the road by 10 mm.
Available are the 150 PS 2.0-liter TDCi diesel with a six-speed manual or a six-speed PowerShift
automatic, as well as the 180 PS version, plus the 210 PS Bi-Turbo 2.0-liter TDCi, the latter only available with the automatic
transmission.
In terms of petrol options, there are
the 160 PS 1.5-liter EcoBoost (manual & auto) and the 203 PS & 240 PS 2.0-liter EcoBoost units, only available with the
automatic.
Those who go for the six-speed
PowerShift automatic versions will also get to enjoy steering wheel-mounted
paddle shifters. It's also important to note that the Mondeo ST-Line is
available with Ford Intelligent All Wheel Drive.
