The new Ford Fiesta was revealed last year and the company is now gearing up to reveal the pocket rocket in the range. To kick things off, Ford has released a teaser video showing the new Fiesta ST. The full reveal is expected to take place on Friday, 24 February 2017.
Powertrain details have yet to be confirmed, but previous reports have suggested that the new Fiesta ST will forego the previous 134kW 1.6-litre turbocharged engine in favour of the firm’s 3-cylinder EcoBoost engine, which will likely be uprated for application in the Fiesta ST.
The new Fiesta ST will feature an improved chassis with the brakes, suspension and steering being key areas of attention. The ST will ride on bigger wheels than the standard Fiesta and will feature specific aerodynamic bits and trim kit.
The new Fiesta ST will be shown at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show and can be expected in South Africa in 2018 along with the new Fiesta range. We will keep you updated as more information becomes available this week.
