Beijing 2008: Ford Fiesta S Concept

At the Beijing 2008 show, Ford has taken the opportunity of the “first” new Chinese Fiesta to present a world preview of a concept car very similar to the series.
The Ford Fiesta S is in fact a clear example of the coming ST.

In addition to some modifications to front details, the side “miniskirts”, the rear spoiler and newly designed wheels, what really strikes is the choice of the five door body.

The decision can be explained by the fact that Ford still hasn’t revealed anything of the Fiesta ST and prefers to play and hide behind an apparently “insignificant” concept, which includes an interior the same as the new Fiesta.

In reality the message is loud and clear: the Fiesta ST will be made, and will likely be very similar to the sporty look – but not extreme, such as that of the RS – to this prototype, apart from three doors instead of five.

The 2009 debut should show off the strong points of the ST, including the 1.
6 turbo engine at 175 hp, and the lowered and reinforced base.
