Holy boost Batman! 50psi sounds amazing! There's rumors that the US Fiesta will get an EcoBoost 1.6L variant making 180hp and a dual clucth tranny, which is still a lot of power for a car this light. Lets keep our fingers crossed.
There will never be an AWD 2.0l turbocharged Fiesta on sale. It basically a beefed up Division 1 rallycross car: turbo and AWD system piled into whatever body shell is found lying around. In Poland one driver used a bored out Escort Cosworth engine and various AWD parts (including Porsche 928 and Ford RS200 parts) in a 2nd gen Focus body shell. There's more little city cars in Div1, like Peugeot 207, Renault Clio or new Skoda Fabia, all with AWD, sequential transmissions and around 600hp.
I doubt it... (about an AWD turbo Fiesta in the US I mean)... Sources say it will be powered by a 1.6L Ti-VCT Duratec 4 banger making 120hp and will be Front wheel drive only... Still a nice looking car though (at least in regards to the 3 door and 5 door hatchbacks). I wonder how much hp it will have to qualify for the X games...
it's always been like that. ford can't have a hatchback challenging a mustang because they know the fiesta would win and hurt the stangs sales. it really sucks though it would be so awesome if it came here.
Well ford are using the fiesta as a advertising tool in the state as they want to introduce smaller cars into the market, thats why they entered Pikes Peak, X-Games etc to show people what it can do lol plus i prefer this to the new WRX
how many subaru do u see flying in the air? since X-games 13 & ken blocks insain trip to New ZLAND . now how many fords do you see fly in the air and make it in 1 piece. none even with a mustang.
