Showcased at the recently concluded 2014 Indian Auto Expo, the 2014 Ford Fiesta might be launched by mid 2014. This information has been revealed to us by a couple of dealers based out of Delhi, who also claim that the existing Fiesta is out of stock and the updated Fiesta will be delivered to them in the new financial year. Though, there is no official statement on the launch time of the updated model, Ford India has listed the Fiesta in the upcoming car section and put the technical details and features there.
What separates the new Fiesta from the old one is the updated design and new features that the former get. The most noticeable change seen on the updated Fiesta is the new grille, which seems to have taken its inspiration from the EcoSport's grille. Other changes to be seen on the 2014 Fiesta will be revised bumpers, bonnet, fog lamp positioning and tail lamps. The car will also come in a new Copper Pulse colour this time. Inside the cabin, we'll see a differently designed steering wheel, revamped dashboard and seats.
Since, it will just be a mid-life makeover of the car, there will be no change made under the hood. It will continue to feature 1.5-litre diesel and petrol engines. There are also rumours doing the rounds about Ford's plans of launching the updated Fiesta with the 1.0-litre EcoBoost engine, but the company hasn't yet said anything on the same.
