New Ford Fiesta ST Debuts With 200PS From New 1.5-Litre Three-Cylinder Engine

Ford Performance presents the new Ford Fiesta ST, which is powered by an all-new three-cylinder, 1.5-litre EcoBoost engine. Shown for the first time ahead of its global public debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month, the new Fiesta ST will deliver 200PS, 290Nm of torque and anticipated 0‑62mph acceleration in 6.7sec.

The third generation of Fiesta ST will be the first ever Ford Performance model powered by a three-cylinder engine, and the first Fiesta ST to feature selectable Drive Modes – enabling engine, steering and stability controls to be configured to Normal, Sport and Track settings.

Drive Modes will also adjust Fiesta ST’s Electronic Sound Enhancement (ESE) technology and active exhaust noise control valve. The technologies amplify the sound of the new 1.5-litre EcoBoost engine that also features Ford’s industry-first cylinder deactivation system for a three-cylinder engine.

The new Fiesta ST’s Ford Performance-tuned chassis will be supported by enhanced Torque Vectoring Control technology that claims to improve road holding and reduce understeer by applying brake force to the inside front wheel when cornering, while the three-mode ESC will enable drivers to choose between full system intervention; wide-slip mode with limited intervention; and full system de-activation.
