COLOGNE, Germany, 29 February 2016 – The acclaimed #ford Fiesta ST compact hot hatch is about to get even hotter.
Ford will today reveal ahead of the Geneva Motor Show a new #ford #fiestast200 model that delivers 10 per cent more power and 20 per cent more torque, with 200PS and 290Nm from a specially calibrated 1.6-litre EcoBoost petrol engine.
The most powerful production Fiesta ever, the #fiestast200 will sprint from 0-62mph in 6.7sec, and will feature an exclusive specification including a unique Storm Grey exterior, distinctive machined matt black alloy wheels and special interior detailing. Production of the #fiestast200 starts from June with customer deliveries this summer.
“The Fiesta ST is truly beloved by owners and critics. The ST200 takes this special drivers’ car to a new level of power and performance,” said Joe Bakaj, vice president, #product Development, #ford of Europe. “I think it’s a future classic in the making.”

In addition to the exclusive exterior colour and 17-inch alloy wheel specification, #fiestast200 models also will feature red painted brake callipers and an enhanced interior with unique partial leather Charcoal Recaro front seats and contrasting silver stitching, alongside illuminated scuff plates and seatbelts with silver detailing.
The Fiesta ST200’s 1.6-litre EcoBoost engine can deliver an additional 15PS and 30Nm of torque for up to 15 seconds using transient overboost. A 4.06 ratio final drive – shortened from 3.82 in the Fiesta ST – further enhances in-gear acceleration for improved drivability and an even more fun to drive experience. Top speed is 143mph.
Like the Fiesta ST, the ST200 delivers optimised cornering and agility using:
- Enhanced Torque Vectoring Control and 3-mode Electronic Stability Control
- A specially modified front steering knuckle
- An adapted rear twist-beam with increased roll-stiffness
- Unique front and rear spring and damper settings with a 15 mm lower centre of gravity
- Sharper 13.69:1 steering ratio and shortened steering arm
- Enhanced braking system with a larger tandem brake master cylinder and rear disc brakes
The Fiesta ST launched in 2013, delivering 182PS and 240Nm of torque from a 1.6‑litre EcoBoost engine and 0-62 mph acceleration in 6.9 seconds – quickly establishing itself as the Europe’s leading compact performance hatchback and earning more than 20 awards around the world within its first year on sale. #ford has since sold 30,000 Fiesta STs in Europe, of which over 19,200 were in Britain.
Road- and race-car #ford GTs side-by-side
Ford earlier this month confirmed that four #ford Chip Ganassi Racing #ford GTs – two competing in the 2016 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and two in the 2016 IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship –will race for GTE Pro class glory at the iconic 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race on June 18-19.
Ford is returning to Le Mans 50 years after achieving a legendary 1-2-3 finish at the 1966 race with the original #ford GT40 race-car. The four cars will carry race numbers 66, 67, 68 and 69 in a nod to Ford’s four successive Le Mans victories between 1966 and 1969.
Accompanying the race- and road-car #ford GTs in Geneva will be four #ford Chip Ganassi Racing Le Mansdrivers; Stefan Muecke, Olivier Pla and Andy Priaulx from the WEC; and Dirk Mueller from the IMSA championship.
The pinnacle of the #ford Performance line-up, the all-new #fordgt serves as a technology showcase for EcoBoost performance, aerodynamics and lightweight carbon fibre construction.
The #fordgt will be one of the most exclusive #ford vehicles ever with limited volume sold around the world and production for customers in Europe starting late this year.
“Whether it’s the new #fiestast200, or our game-changing all-new Focus RS, or the groundbreaking #fordgt supercar, our #ford Performance offering has never been so strong,” said Raj Nair, #ford executive vice president and chief technical officer, Global #product Development. “Ford’s EcoBoost engine technology has enabled a #ford Performance model to suit every budget and lifestyle.”
