M-Sport Completes Ladder of Opportunity with the all-new Fiesta Rally3

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

The all-new #msport #fiestarally3 is the first car built for the FIA's #rally3 category, completing M-Sport's 'Ladder of Opportunity' and the FIA #rally Pyramid. 
 
Rally3 is a new category of #rally car created to provide an accessible and affordable first step on the four-wheel drive ladder to be used on national, regional and world-level rallies.  Watch the launch video here 
The #fiestarally3 marks a new era for #msport – the first and so far, only manufacturer to offer a car for every tier of the FIA #rally Pyramid. The cost-effective four-wheel drive #fiestarally3 was designed and developed in #msport Poland's state of the art facility in Krakow, Poland. 
 
The #msport #fiestarally3 is undergoing an intense development programme on a variety of surfaces and conditions across Europe, using a unique cross section of world class drivers. A clear set of targets and standards have now been identified for the #fiestarally3 to establish unrivalled reliability. The most notable target is the homologation date; #msport Poland will homologate the first ever #rally3 car on 1st March 2021.
 
The #msport #fiestarally3 will be available for €99,999 excluding VAT and registration costs. In anticipation of the popularity of the #rally3 category, production is already underway in Krakow and deposits for first orders will be accepted from 16th November. 
 
This offers customers the opportunity to take delivery of their #fiestarally3 from the date of homologation and begin their #rally3 championship campaigns just in time for the start of the 2021 season.

A 1.5-litre EcoBoost engine will power the #fiestarally3, giving it a distinctive sound, combined with aggressive looks thanks to bonnet vents and a rear wing that provide as much function as they do form.
 
The all-new #fiestarally3 weighs in at 1210kg with a power output of 215BHP and 400Nm of torque from the 1.5 litre EcoBoost engine all transmitted through a five-speed sequential gearbox. 
 
Reaching 100km/h in just five seconds and a top speed of 185km/h the #msport #fiestarally3 provides the perfect transition step for the next generation of #rally drivers looking to cut their teeth in four-wheel drive machinery. M-Sport's #fiestarally3 is sprung by three-way adjustable dampers front and rear using 17-inch and 15-inch rims for tarmac and gravel respectively.
 
It was important to #msport to begin work on the #fiestarally3 as soon as draft regulations were available, underlining M-Sport's commitment to supporting drivers around the world from grassroots to greatness on the world stage. With such a broad spectrum of drivers in mind #msport Poland has ensured the testing programme reflects this by using a truly diverse selection of drivers from world championship veterans to those new to four-wheel drive machinery.
 
Maciej Woda, #msport Poland Director: "I am very happy with how things are progressing with the #fiestarally3. Every time I see the development car, I feel very proud of the entire team that is working tirelessly and has been throughout 2020 on this truly ground-breaking car. In what has been a very difficult year for everybody, the team at Krakow are excelling themselves with the #fiestarally3, not letting anything get in the way of design and development. I want to say a huge congratulations and thank you to everybody contributing to this project so far. The #fiestarally3 and the collective effort going into its creation embodies everything that #msport exists for: providing every opportunity to the next generation of drivers. The #fiestarally3 will by no means be an alternative to any car that is out there currently, it will be a brand-new concept serving what has been a very underserved area of rallying. It will be the perfect steppingstone for those graduating from two-wheel to four-wheel drive, allowing drivers to learn and refine the skills needed to handle four-wheel drive machinery which is a massive step for any driver. Since early talks about the concept of #rally3, we have all been quite excited about the potential of this category. The cost cap was a key sticking point for us, and I feel €99,999 will be a very good price point for an entry level four-wheel drive car, especially for national and regional #rally championships around the world."
