2014 Ford Fiesta ST offers the fastest small car in its history.

Since March 2013, the sportiest version of the Fiesta, the Ford Fiesta ST, available. The 182-horsepower compact cars is 20% become stronger compared to its predecessor, but it also 20% more economical way.

Fiesta ST with visual enhancements such as body styling kit in the ST design, the 17 "alloy wheels and rear spoiler in the ST design also have air conditioning, the distinctive LED daytime running lights, an audio system with radio / CD combination including Ford SYNC and Emergency Assist and electric windows, sports suspension and sports seats.

The ST package 1 (includes heated Recaro sports front seats with leather-cloth upholstery, automatic air conditioning and the Sony audio system), cruise control, the Sony navigation system, a heated windscreen, a rain sensor, the Ford Key Free System, the ST styling package and metallic paint it.

As sporty, the Fiesta ST is from the outside, so it's sporty interior further. Equal to a fall while boarding the highly contoured sports seats with red / black upholstery and the illuminated door sill with "ST" logo. Also, the gear stick comes up with red lettering, and the grippy leather steering wheel also indicates the sportiest Fiesta version.

The seats offer fantastic grip, even with maximum cornering speed. They are also very comfortable, and you can also overcome long distances so hassle free. As the sport seats are a little wider than the normal seats, the access is to the rear for something close to but you have to live with a coupe anyway.

The boot capacity is sized properly with 290-974 liters and also allows more than just a little weekend getaway.

Who decides for a sports cannon such as the Fiesta ST, will but without this is not exactly see the Place offer as top priority, but rather the fun of driving, the is intended offer such a car.

Under the rakish hood of the proven 1,6 liter EcoBoost-turbo engine with an output of 182 PS is is home (134 kW), of the tidy breathes life the small car. Its maximum torque of 240 Nm delivers the motor 1600-5000 U / Min, whereby stands in an enormous performance available over a very wide speed band.

The enormous force one notices equal to on the first meters, after one has awakens the engine by start button to life and he joyfully logs in with a sonorous hum about word. On dry, straight distance of the Fiesta brings the enormous for a small car force also very good onto the street and sprints in 6.9 seconds from 0 to 100 km / h The top speed is at 220 km / h

For a perfect road location thereby ensures the new sports suspension on the ST. First time in the Fiesta-model series comes when ST the improved driving dynamics-regulation ETVC (enhanced Torque Vectoring Control) for use. You improves the steering behavior of the front Trieblers and acts if rigorous efforts cornering of an understeer, contrary, by the system when required under binds a loss of adhesion of the inner front wheel through active braking intervention.

Nevertheless you can feel upon vigorous accelerating out curves, what forces act on the wheels, and of the Fiesta has trouble, to bring the force then onto the road. But he remains thereby absolutely good-natured in every situation and is also very fast back on course.

The very direct steering additionally facilitates each steering correction and mediates a good contact to the street, even at flotte-art cornering. Impressive is with this is that of the Fiesta ST from really every gear, no matter where the tachometer is straight, an enormous power unfolding offers.

The manual 6-speed-gearbox is so aligned, that one can penetrate when required in the Second in high double-digit regions, but also in the 6th Transition already at 70 km / h still agile acceleration maneuvers can be graduated. This combination makes it also possible that you could can slide quite comfortably thither with the Fiesta. The noise insulation is just as good as with the other models, merely at full acceleration then pampers the motor with a very beautiful sound, of the enhances driving pleasure equal to once again.

The little dwarf force can therefore come up with the driving pleasure of a sports car, but still remains very economical. However Whoever reaches the 5.9 liters, the are specified from the factory as consumption per 100 kilometers,, of the should to seriously ask, whether it had to really be a ST, because then he has no meters savored the fun, which the trolley offers. We have come in the-section to 7.7 liters, have thereby but really maxed the driving fun in the framework of the allowed possibilities and missed no way to hear the sonorous motor sound when intermediate sprint.

The Fiesta ST unites two souls in itself: the of practical small car that can be easily whisked through the city, and those of the sports car, which reacts with a perfect landing gear right at the corner exit to the next corner. The comfortable sport seats and spacious for a car of this class trunk round the positive overall picture as well as from the very affordable entry price, with the fun factor is equal again increased.

2013 Ford Focus ST Review

Ford Focus ST with outstanding features compared with its less powerful engines colleagues are deliberately restrained. The 18-inch model in the ST design fill out the wheelarches look good, snout and tail are a discreet spoiler and diffuser with integrated center exhaust by the roof spoiler, the only externally incident identification.

Inside, the ST design, however, is striking. A bespoke suit resembling the Recaro seats that are suitable to order according to model in two-tone exterior paint to provide excellent support when cornering at speed. The operation of all functions is a bit strange, since at least the middle console of switches almost overloaded.

Works closely tailored the passenger compartment. It may be due to the lower body, which still leaves enough headroom? Or is it the very slim fitted interior of the Focus? In any case the passengers are well embedded in a Ford Focus, suggesting a degree of greater safety.

Electrically folding exterior mirrors with environment lighting and Blind Spot Assist, the Lane Assistant including fatigue Warner and high-beam assistant, the traffic signs detection and heated windshield and washer jets. In sum, considered almost a bargain. It is used for traffic safety and can be used for relaxing travel.

Performance

Nothing against a 2-liter turbocharged gasoline engine. An engine that can be found virtually in its basic configuration for all manufacturers. We missed the five-cylinder engine from the previous-ST and the RS and the RS 500 yet. The hoarse rattle, pushing the brutal and distinctive motorsport genes had to yield many new demands.

Ford Focus in its currently fastest edition also serves Handsome vehicle for the long haul. Since no menacing sound and the onboard annoying family can relax and chat. The Ford on average stated consumption of 7.2 liters can only be achieved with a lot of restraint. In our tests, the onboard computer was usually at about 10 liters, which should be noted is that we usually go pretty fast, were prevalent cold temperatures and snow tires were mounted.

Almost perfectly accustomed are the driving characteristics of the ST. As with all the other Focus models, the chassis is designed with a mix of sportiness and comfort, so that no harm beats the disc, yet the fleet cornering is done brilliantly. When ST is the sporty tuning tighter the ticking and is supported harmoniously with the electric power steering EPAS, the three-stage ESP and electronic differential lock and the CUSC system.

The electronic power steering is calibrated so that it influences torque even more sensitive and detects as for example with simple straight ahead looks extremely smooth and sporty cornering extreme acts directly with corresponding slight resistance. Already quite sporty design is the normal level of the ESP, in contrast to the other Focus models engages much later. The repeal of the traction control, the next step can be to even slight drifts and intervenes only resume once the aid is urgently needed. Completely goes well, but should be of only experienced pilots and used most exclusively on racetracks.

Opposite effects are showing yet matched TVC and CUSC. The electronic differential lock TVC (Torque Vectoring Control) brakes in quickly approached curves the inner wheel off specifically to reduce the typical understeer tendency of a front-wheel drive. The opposite approach suggests a CUSC (Cornering understeer control). By a specific torque is added, before the ESP used, affects the yaw angle and the sensitivity is equal throughout, whether the driver is accelerating or not straight. The highlights of the ST in spheres that succeeds by other manufacturers generally only with adaptive chassis.

Ford S-Max 2.0 EcoBoost Review

With the second-generation Galaxy and Ford S-Max is started, which is the 5-seater and sportier version of the Galaxy. Visually, it differs mainly in the rear area of the Galaxy, but also the round fog lamps in the front end are a design feature of the S-Max.

Even more sporty he is tested by us 2.0 liter EcoBoost version and Titanium S-Type. Ford Individual body styling package, a center console "Piano Finish", a leather / Alcantara upholstery, 18 "alloy wheels, a roof spoiler, bi-xenon headlights, tinted windows from the B column, cruise control, heated front seats , a 2-zone climate control and much more on board.

Our test vehicle drenched in addition, with the driver package PLUS, the business package medium, the travel package, the seat package, scuff plates front with S-MAX logo and painted in candy red, which is the sporting Van particularly well.

Although the S-Max has been on the market for several years, he has still rough around the edges and seems to be the elixir of eternal youth to have to get on the road. Even newer representative of its class can compete neither with the sporty appearance even when space is limited.

The interior offers plenty of room, but it is designed so that you also might think that with a sedan on the road. Front of the driver is a very tidy dashboard, which is home to the modern speedometer with large display for navigation, radio stations and more.

Due to the large center console with cup holders and a comfortable armrest, he is very similar to the Mondeo. The grip leather steering wheel with contrasting stitching and the sports seats with perfect support convey a bit of a sports car feeling. The passengers in the second row in the travel business class on long-haul flights, at least as far as the leg-and headroom.

No wish unfulfilled and the trunk volume. With more than 700 kilos of payload and 854 liter capacity of the S-Max is clearly identified as Van. Who can do without the second row gets even up to 2,100 liters of cargo space provided, so the S-Max 2.0 EcoBoost is an ideal quick loadmaster.

And "fast" can be understood in the literal sense of the word. The new 2.0-liter EcoBoost engine is a real goodie and gives the Van sporty acceleration data. The power of the turbocharged engine is 240 hp (176 kW) and maximum torque of 340 Nm the engine delivers 1900 to 3500 rev / min. He has been out of the rev range a very responsive power delivery, the word "turbo lag" is for the new Ford turbo engine is a foreign word.

The force is so immediately made ​​available, that one must above all be very careful when parking maneuver. The S-Max bites at every little touch on the accelerator immediately enormous.

Very good for the characteristics of the car fits the Ford PowerShift automatic transmission. The 6-speed Direct Shift Gearbox impresses with fast switching operations, which are also designed to be very soft. Thus, the power flow is continuously present, and one to sprint in just 7.9 seconds from a standing start to 100 km / h The top speed is 235 km / h.

Yet despite its sporty engine performs its work even at full acceleration or at highway speeds very smoothly and quietly. The S-Max is recommended also as an ideal touring sedan with a perfect sound insulation offers great comfort.

Even the sports suspension provides enough comfort and filters bumps off perfectly. Ford has also found the S-Max is a very good match between sportiness and driving comfort. Nevertheless, the large van is like a board on the street, and you can measure exactly around tight curves without causing a capsizing feeling.

It is in such moments is easy to forget that you are actually traveling with a family van and no sports car. The very direct steering is also very pleasant, because it requires but rather higher steering forces, leading to the vote but it fits well.

With a length of 477 cm, the Ford S-Max move also quite handy and also loses its terror in the city. The large windows give a perfect view and provide good visibility. With the parking aid can also be estimated very accurately all the corners and perfectly maneuver in tight spaces. Nevertheless, the practical Ford feels more on the highway or freeway probably where he makes with his performance and good vote for a lot of driving pleasure.

Weighing in at just under 1.7 tonnes and the Van typical high build because you have to, especially in the city to expect an increased consumption, which can quickly crack the 10-liter mark. In mixed driving the S-Max has consumed during our tests around 9.5 liters per 100 kilometers, which is indeed the work of the promised 8.3 liters, but for a car of this performance and class size is just under.

Who wants it more economical, can still pick up the diesel. The Ford S-Max 2.0 EcoBoost is especially for those the ideal choice, although they want a sporty car, but need plenty of space for passengers and luggage. The S-Max combines perfectly the versatility that a Van offers, with the driving performance of a sports coupe and can also convince with comfort, a perfect finish and a good equipment.

2013 Ford Fiesta Redesign

The facelift of the Ford Fiesta was introduced. The little boy shows up with redesigned look and many new features such as a hidden brake assist and a new multimedia system. Called 2013 Ford Fiesta Redesign.

The revised version of the Ford Fiesta is here. It is presented by a modified design and a multitude of technical innovations. The new version of the 1976 for the first time presented small car will mainly be safer and more economical, but also offer more comfort.

Redesigned optics
The front of the back available as a three and five-door Fiesta is dominated by the large grille in a trapezoidal shape, which is reminiscent of the Nobel sports cars from Aston Martin. Also fall on the newly designed headlamps with LED daytime running lights and the bonnet with power domes. Great goal in the interior was to optimize the ergonomic interior. New is also the multimedia connectivity system Ford SYNC, which can be operated by voice commands and provides connection options via USB and Bluetooth. Likewise, the SYNC system independently in a position to inform in case of accident to the local emergency services in local language about the location of the vehicle.

Safety systems on board
For security in the city to ensure the "Active City Stop" system. It helps the driver by means of targeted brake intervention, to prevent rear-end collisions in city traffic or at least reduce the severity of the accident. Another new feature is the so-called "MyKey" system, which allows parents greater influence on the driving behavior of their offspring. Thus, the vehicle owners to program a special car keys such that maximum radio volume and speed of the vehicle will be limited. Similarly, it is excluded that driver assistance and safety systems are disabled.

Award winning engine
One of the engines of the new Ford Fiesta is already award winning. The 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder direct injection petrol engine, which is already in Ford Focus, Ford C-Max and B-Max has been used, received the "Engine of the Year 2012".

2013 Ford Focus Titanium

2013 Ford Focus Titanium is at first glance, a sleek combination trip. The interplay of wide hood pulled down, increasing fluency window and sloping roof line, he seems much longer than it actually is 4.56 meters. A striking feature is especially the front with the large trapezoidal air intake, the bi-xenon headlights and fog lights. The rear looks by far the modern rear lights drawn into the flank.

The five-door Focus is - without mirrors - 1.82 meters wide and about 1.50 meters tall, these are the dimensions of a compact car. Nevertheless, little things like help the combination of the lush sound of falling into the castle doors, to overcome the class barriers.

Interior
The interior is modern. At first glance, the cockpit looks slightly cluttered with buttons and knobs. But in practice, it quickly became apparent that the operation is perfectly matched to the driver. The handle on the big board in the center console, instrument is rarely necessary to turn around to the navigation system. Almost every function can also be controlled via the steering wheel buttons.

Helpful is the display of individually adjustable on-board computer, which is located between the tachometer and speed indicator. Cast as the well-made steering wheel is in the hand. A candy is LED lighting, which bathes the interior when driving at night and instruments in a very pleasant light.

The front seats offer proper lateral support and the rear passengers can take even longer behind drivers yet comfortable space. Drawback: The visibility of the station wagon is the greatly reduced tapering windows in the rear. However, a wider rear view mirror and large mirrors this lack repay a large extent. In addition, the test vehicle with the optional blind spot warning system is fitted, the warning with a flashing dot in the exterior mirrors in front of approaching vehicles in the rear view mirror are not recognizable.

Limited receptive are the storage compartments in the doors. Here a few inches would work more wonders. At the rear, opening up a high-soaring cargo door of the storage space with a very low loading height, depending on the load and the vehicle can cast 476-1516 liters of luggage will be accommodated. Thus, the focus is head to head with the Vauxhall Astra Sport Tourer class competitors and VW Golf Variant.

Drive
In the test car is a 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine with 110 kW/150 hp that accelerates the focus in 8.8 seconds from zero to one hundredth The smooth-running four-cylinder Ford Focus Estate features: Compact Combination of the athletes dress not only by a beefy pulling power, but also by a direct response. Driven at high speed, the four-cylinder can be heard clearly, however. The six-speed manual transmission in the Focus is smooth and is characterized by short shift travel.

Long-distance comfort
The long-distance comfort of the Ford Focus leaves little to be desired. The tautly sprung chassis is quite sporty design, but offers plenty of comfort. In a very bumpy surface is very uneven, the steering wheel directly to the driver, which requires a strong grab, even if in the background the Torque Vectoring Control ensures driving stability. Master curves, the focus is almost like a sports car.

Start-stop system
The standard start-stop system works in both the shutdown and the start-up mode so discreet that it never interferes. Almost automatically, the driver uses a short time the fuel-saving mechanism that is triggered only by the disengagement at idle. At a fuel-saving driving habits, the Focus is content with just under eight liters Super per 100 kilometers, indulges in fast motorway journeys, the Cologne but also like one more than nine liters. The CO2 emissions of the sprint strong focus is 137 grams per kilometer.

Conclusion
The Ford Focus Titanium is a chic and practical compact combination with powerful engine and good long-distance comfort. Optionally, a wide range of safety and comfort equipment is ordered.
