Ford’s local Fiesta range will be bolstered with a PowerShift automatic transmission in combination with the company's acclaimed 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine.
The 74kW 1.0 EcoBoost will be paired with a six speed dual-clutch auto delivering 4.9 litres/100km and CO2 emissions of 114g/km.
FIRST FOR FORD
Ford South Africa marketing manager Gavin Golightly said: “The first combination of our award-winning EcoBoost 1.0-litre engine with PowerShift dual-clutch automatic transmission is a major step forward in this segment and will appeal to many new customers – especially those looking for the latest cutting edge technology.
“The Fiesta is an important model in the Ford line-up. The 1.0-litre EcoBoost is one of the most advanced engines Ford has ever produced and makes use of a multitude of innovative techniques, while the dual-clutch design combines the efficiency, optimised gear ratios and driving enjoyment of a manual gearbox with the smoothness and ease-of-use of a conventional automatic. It’s the best of both worlds.”
