Ford Fiesta Sedan Facelift Gets 1.0 Litre EcoBoost Engine for US

Ford revealed the much publicized 2013 edition of the Fiesta sedan at the Sao Paulo International Motor Show.

Now, the Ford Fiesta sedan facelift gets the much publicized 1.0-liter EcoBoost for the US market. The turbocharged three-cylinder engine pumps out a very healthy 123bhp of peak power output and the ‘number-hungry’ enthusiasts will be impressed by the face that the EcoBoost has a better Power/Litre figure that that of the Lamborghini Aventador ‘s engine(123 vs 108 HP per liter).

The new engine also has class leading fuel efficiency figure and lower CO2 emissions.

The updated car has considerable probability of making it to India during 2014 Delhi Auto Expo. Also, there are fair chances of us getting the EcoBoost engine option.

The refreshed Fiesta sedan gets American car maker’s new ‘Aston Martin-ish’ front trapezoidal grille, revised head lamps and a new hood.

At the rear, the 2013 Ford Fiesta sedan gets a new bumper and altered tail lamps. The rear is also seen sporting reshaped registration plate housing on the boot lid. If pictures are anything to go by, the latest set of changes makes the rear end look longer and hence, seem to have done a world of good to the car’s rear end styling.

Ford says that the updated car is much more ‘sporty’ and ‘robust’ than the outgoing model.

On the inside, the car gets a new centre console and re-position gear shifter. The interior is now made up with better materials and is being claimed to be more ergonomic.

Other mechanical changes include a tuned suspension and an improved chassis.

  1. If there is one thing that holding existing fiesta from succeeding, it is the engine. Ecoboost engine is going to change this for ford india

  2. The Front side always looked Good, all i was waiting to change in rear part it looks so small comparative to the other cars

  3. Fiesta was always brilliant to drive but the rear-end and high-price put off even a die-hard ford fan like me. I hope they don't wait till 2014 to launch this in India! March 2013 would be ideal…
