Ford Fiesta as we all know has been a major success in the country, the car has been doing good in the sales chart as soon as it was launched in the country.Its younger sibling the Figo, has also proved its worthiness by striking with a sales of 7000 units in the very first month of its launch, and it is doing great with the sales currently.Keeping this success in mind, Ford India will launch all new Fiesta in a few months.Ford India will be launching many new models for the Indian models in the coming years.
Here is the first glimpse of the new sedan. It is a futuristic design as we have look, the headlamps are swept back, the twin pod lamps, a massive grille in the bumper.The headlamps are sharply designed to enhance the looks.The rear looks like a notchback rather than a sedan. The tail lamps are very well designed, with a part of it integrated into boot lid.
A very strong point for Ford has been its ability to make the handling and the ride up to date, this has been a major factor for the success for the ford cars.The ride and handling of Ford cars are by far the best among their segment. Except the ride quality and handling to be top notch, in this Ford as well. The suppleness of the ride is due to the 195/65 R15 tyres which are big enough for car of its size.
The new Fiesta has a completely new interior design, it is well built, looks beautiful, and its equipped with lots of new features.Automatic climate control air-conditioning, multi information system, steering mounted audio controls, bluetooth enabled audio system, rear parking sensors, a fully integrated trip computer and a big display screen,and last but not the least voice command control for audio and air conditioning. These are only a few examples of new Fiesta. The materials seems to be of very good quality, and the cabin feels long lasting. The plastic feels really hard and feels solid. The steering feels very nice to hold and gives a very chunky feeling because of its small size. The seats are well blostered and give you a feelinf of getting absorbed into lap of comfort. The interior space is good, the front seats have ample leg and knee room, while the rear seats have decent leg room with two six footers can easily accomodated in the front and the rear row back to back. The electronic power steering is though the best in the segment, but is smooth and light enough to tackle city traffic. Ford has really offered fantastic features for these car and which are hard enough to find in any other car of its segment.
Ford will be offering two engine options, petrol and diesel. A 1.5 ltr duratorq engine with 90Bhp on tap will be good enough with the competiton, and also certainly better than the 68Bhp engine which is currently in the old ford Fiesta.
A 1.5ltr speced version producing 107Bhp will be offered, which is again on par with competition, but produces significantly less power than the Honda city(118Bhp) and the new Hyundai Verna(122Bhp) but is higher than Maruti Suzuki Sx4(104Bhp) and VW Vento(105Bhp). However that doesn't matter much, as Ford has integrated many of cutting edge technologies into its car. Like, have you ever experienced a sudden drag of the car when you overtake a loaded truck, now you wont be experiencng that, the reason behind is a directionally stable steering technology in the steering system, which compensates the drag and maintain the stability of the car and also its path. The body is made up of specialized steel metal, keep the car stable at all speeds. The engine is very smooth and remains the same till the red line of 6000 rpm. You will notice the needle reaching 100km/hr in 10 sec vicinity.
Safety is amongst the best in the segment, with ABS(Anti-lock Braking System)(http://harshcar.blogspot.com/search?q=anti-lock+braking+system), EBD (Electronic Brake Force Distributon) and two airbags as standard of all the variants, Ford has provided with the best safety features.
The new Fiesta will be in the Upper 'C' segment, consisting of cars like Honda City, VW Vento. The price of the Fiesta is likely to be a little cheaper than the current leader Honda City.If priced right the car will make wonders to Ford. The new model will be sold along with the current model, and the current model will be named Fiesta Classic. The basic models will start from Rupees 9.5 lakhs onroad for the petrol model and will go upto Rupees 11.9 lakhs for the top end diesel model. The bookings have opened from 14th of July 2011.
