The pinnacle of the concept of kinematic developments, light and rapid, is a unique car that has embodied all the best developments from Ford – Ford Fiesta.
Almost everything has changed in the new Fiesta – the design of the exterior, interior, chassis, motor. It is even difficult to call deep restyling, updated Fiesta is a completely different car.
The salon of the new car has changed completely. The steering wheel has become more massive. You can now start the engine by pressing only one button (unless, of course, the electronic ignition key is nearby). A coolant temperature indicator disappeared from the dashboard.
Ford Fiesta is equipped with a modern system called Easy Fuel, designed to protect the car owner from risk to refuel the car with the wrong type of fuel, the most powerful audio system with the ability to connect a Bluetooth bar and listen to notes in the MP3-player memory or iPod.
Positive changes, perhaps, include a highly reduced speed lever. In the new model, he became no more than the joystick of the ST model. Instead of air conditioning, a climate control appeared in a car. Of course, not two -zone, because you need to take into account the class of the machine and its size.
The seats became denser. The rear seats can be folded entirely, while the luggage compartment volume will increase into three – from 281 liters to 979. But in general, interior changes occurred only externally, leaving the former stable, for cars of this brand, quality at an excellent level. A display with various buttons appeared on the steering wheel. In a word, the filling of the novelty is somewhat complicated.
And now about the main thing – “driving disciplines” and technical characteristics. The brand new Fiesta is “packed” in full – the most powerful “engine” in the entire line with a volume of 1, 6 liters and a capacity of more than 120 “horses”. Gearbox – “mechanics”, five steps. The car is able to accelerate to “hundreds” in 13, 3 seconds and allows you to gain maximum speed of 168 km/h. “Automatic” is available only for models with an engine of 1, 4 liters, and the version considered here is for fans of fast driving.
Without any problems, touching. Acceleration is even and very intense. The opening of the “second span” occurs somewhere at 3,000 revolutions per minute and further-on the increasing. The “engine” is resourceful and it is pronounced. You twist it stronger – you will go faster. Not the slightest sting, up to the red zone. However, I did not quite like the “voice” at the engine. The feeling that you are under the hood of some electric motor, and not at all the ICE. The same sound of a trolleybus during acceleration.
Surprised another important point. There is no previous responsiveness of the engine-somehow reluctantly, he drops momentum, slower than that would like.
A few words about fuel consumption. Great for such dimensions of the car. For three days – 27 liters. The average fuel consumption is 9, 8 liters per hundred mileage.
The length of Ford Fiesta, compared with past models, increased by three centimeters and began to equal 3 950 mm. However, the mass of the car decreased by 40 kg. It was possible to achieve this, including because of the refusal of the spare. The car reached 1,709 mm in width, its height is 1,481 mm. The three -door Ford Fiesta will cost the Russian buyer 529 thousand rubles, and the five -door will cost 10 thousand rubles more.
Summarizing all the above, you can say that Ford Fiesta is an ideal car for girls. Recently, automakers began to pay more attention to the beautiful floor, producing unambiguous cars. So Ford has also contributed to his contribution. And this contribution, it should be noted, is very aesthetic, elegant, albeit expensive.
