2011 Ford Fiesta Stylish Dynamis Elegant

The Ford Fiesta followed tradition, with an end-on four-speed manual transmission mounted to a new version of the Ford Kent OHV engine, dubbed "Valencia" after the brand new Spanish factory in Almussafes, Valencia, developed especially to produce the new car. Ford's plants in Dagenham, England, and Saarlouis and Cologne (from 1979) in Germany, also manufactured Fiestas. To cut costs and speed up the research and development, many modified Kent engines destined for the Fiesta were tested in Fiat 127s - at the time considered the benchmark car in the class, with which the Fiesta shares styling similarities. This also allowed covert road testing across Europe. The Ford Fiesta was originally developed under the project name "Bobcat" and approved for development by Henry Ford 2 in September 1972. Development targets indicated a production cost US$100 less than the current Ford Escort. The car was to have a wheelbase longer than that of the Fiat 127, but with overall length shorter than that of Ford's Escort.

2011 Ford Fiesta

The new 2011 Ford Fiesta powered by a Duratec 1.6-liter inline four with a variable valve system called Ti-VCT, the Fiesta has 120 horsepower and 112 pound-feet of torque to shove its 2600-pound mass around. Accordingly, we estimate a zero-to-60 mph acceleration time in the 9-second vicinity, with a quarter-mile time around 17 seconds at almost 80 mph. Fuel economy figures have not been finalized, but Ford expects the Fiesta to achieve about 30 mpg in the city and 40 on the highway. While the standard transmission is a 5-speed manual with a reasonably slick and positive action, there is an optional dual-clutch automatic 5-speed that puts the Fiesta in pretty exotic company.
