Ford Fiesta
The Ford Fiesta has become the flagship model of Ford and is quite polular among hte car lovers, Fiesa is a compact luxury sedan and is manufactured indigenously in India. Designed by the Ford Motor Company in Europe, it is also available in Mexico, China, Brazil, South Africa and Japan. This sedan is more spacious than others in its segment; its interior design makes maximum use of the additional width of the Fiesta’s body structure, providing ample seating for five adults.
Its styling might not be as sporty or racy as the Ikon in the looks department, but it has its own intrinsic appeal and would probably find its niche among a more mature segment of car buyers. A car that sensitively and intuitively gets your measure, it handles like dynamite on the road. Reassuring and comfortable, the Fiesta exudes class and style.
This Ford has more than just speed and power; beyond its impressive exterior is a wealth of technology and innovation. Designed specifically to meet the demands of the challenging Indian tarmac, the Fiesta’s hugely responsive engineering and wizardry reins in the car at curves, and softens it up by adapting to the road and driving conditions.
The Fiesta is available in seven trims; the Fiesta Duratec 1.4 TDCi EXI, 1.6 Duratec EXI, 1.6 Duratec ZXI, 1.4 TDCi ZXI, 1.6 Duratec SXI, 1.4 TDCi SXI and 1.6 S.

The Fiesta Duratec 1.6 SXI, Fiesta Duratec 1.6 ZXI and 1.6 S sport a 1.6L In-line 4,100 bhp engine that gives up 146 nm of torque and the Fiesta 1.4 TDCi ZXI is geared up with 1.4L, 67 bhp engine that forks out 160 nm of torque. A 5-speed manual transmission is standard across all trims.
This Ford’s drive quality is smooth and flawless. No surprises here. The V8 serves up an awe-inspiring gush of power as one antes up on speed, and runs through the seamless shifts effortlessly. Powerful, no-drama-anti-lock brakes work with predictable precision. Acceleration is satisfactory. Ride quality is comfortable. Steering is crisp and efficient. The Fiesta soaks up bumps efficiently and is a breeze to drive, thanks to its especially tuned suspension features.
