Fiesta ST could get EcoBoost option

Ford’s Fiesta ST could get a 1.0-litre EcoBoost three-cylinder turbo engine option.

The upgraded option could see an increase in the car’s bhp and would appeal to Fiesta buyers looking for something a little sportier.

Ford’s head of small cars in Europe, Darren Palmer, told Auto Express: “We’re seeing more and more of what we can do with the 1.0-litre engine in development and the signs are promising. It’s a great engine – it sounds brilliant and there’s loads of torque when the turbo comes on boost, so we’re looking into things for the next ST.”

Ford recently confirmed the introduction of a new five-door model to the Fiesta ST line-up.
