Fiesta ST Concept Shows Baby Focus ST's Future

The Fiesta ST shows an almost production-ready future for the hot hatch-version of the Fiesta. Sporting a turbocharged, 1.6 liter Ecoboost engine making 177hp and 240Nm of torque.

The Fiesta ST is truly a smaller version of the Focus ST. Its 1.6 liter, Ecoboost engine is based off 2.0 liter found in the Focus ST. Ford claims that it will be capable of sprints to 100km/h in less than seven seconds with a six-speed manual transmission and a top speed of about 220km/h. Ford claims that the Fiesta ST will produce less than 140g/km of CO2.

The design of the Fiesta ST is probably what is most polarizing. It is very aggressive with a rear diffuser, 17in wheels and dual exhaust. The front end is very love it or hate it, though. While the large, single piece frontend looks great on the Focus ST, it is almost too big on the Fiesta ST. The car is almost starting to look fish-like. It is definitely functional but might not be aesthetically good.

This is probably a very good idea of what a future Fiesta ST will look like and the amount of power that it will make. Let Ford gets the Focus ST out of the door, and maybe look for the production Fiesta ST to debut at an auto show next year.
