Ford Fiesta, Turbocharged

Ford has dropped their all new 2012 Fiesta at the 2011 SEMA Auto Parts Show, and it’s been Turbocharged.

Ford Fiesta ST is powered by a turbocharged EcoBoost engine, with 1.6-liter four-cylinder powerplant that produces 180 horsepower, matted to a six-speed manual transmission.

Fiesta ST / STX comes in a lowered stance, with tuned suspension, wide wheel arches (including 17-inch alloy wheels) and a full ST body kit that makes it look like a Ford Fiesta WRC race car.

“Fiesta has a rich history of high-performance models so a new ST performance model is a logical next step in our performance vehicle strategy,” said Derrick Kuzak, Ford group vice president.
