Ford has revealed the Fiesta ST in concept form at the Frankfurt Motor Show.

Outside, the concept comes with an aerodynamic body kit, new front and rear fascias, side skirts, a lowered sports suspension, dual rear exhaust and 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin features Recaro sport seats and high contrast trim.

The Fiesta ST is equipped by a 1.6-liter EcoBoost 4-cylinder engine with 180 hp and 240 Nm of torque. The engine is linked to a 6-speed manual gearbox which enables the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 7 seconds and hit a top speed of 220 km/h. CO2 emissions of less than 140 g/km.

“The Fiesta has a rich history of high-performance models so a new ST performance model is a logical next step in our performance vehicle strategy for our global small cars,” said Derrick Kuzak, Ford group vice president, Global Product Development.
