The Ford Fiesta is manufactured by the Ford Motor Company and is currently being sold as their “global car,” a phrase that fits in with the marketing campaign they launched a few years ago.
Ford had originally introduced the Fiesta in 1976, and while it saw great sales in international markets, the American people didn’t want it, and it was dropped after just a few years.
In May 2010, Ford decided it was time to turn the Fiesta into a world-wide car, and instead of building a brand-new car they simply decided to turn their international best-seller into a global car. They are actually the first manufacturer to sell the same car in every major market in the world.
Currently the Fiesta is in its sixth generation, featuring a decent 29 miles per gallon in the city and an economical 40 mpg on the highway. The Fiesta is marketed towards those who cannot afford luxury vehicles; with a base price-tag of $13,200, financing options are available for people of truly any income bracket.
The pricing strategy was based off of a global need as many people living in other countries can’t afford a $40,000 car, so the Fiesta has filled that space quite well over the years.
While it only has 120 horsepower and 112 ft-lbs of torque, speed and towing aren’t meant to be the car’s focal point. It has been designed from the get-go as a commuter car, and with it now being the true face of Ford’s global marketing strategy, Ford is pushing it from all angles.
There are several different option packages and a host of features to include if you’re looking to buy one, and the money you save on the gas front makes it well worth it. You can also find more information about the Ford Fiesta here.
