Funkmaster Flex to tweak the 2011 Ford Fiesta29 Apr

  Filed Under: 2011 Fiesta

More and more hype continues to pour onto the scene of the 2011 Ford Fiesta each day we creep closer to the official launch.  The latest and greatest pop culture icon to touch & test the Fiesta waters is Funkmaster Flex.  After a successful roundabout with the American Idol crew, Ford knows full well to keep the wheels rolling with more exciting social icons.  The latest tidbit we are pumped up to let you in on is that MTV2 will air the first episode of celebrity customizer Funkmaster Flex on his new TV show “Funk Flex Full Throttle” (2pm EST on May 2, 2010) where he will be exhibiting and giving away completely customized 2011 Ford Fiesta.  As a part of the show & the intertwined contest, one lucky viewer will actually win the keys to the tricked out car!

2011 Ford Fiesta first drive27 Apr

  Filed Under: 2011 Fiesta

As we inch closer and closer to the official 2011 Ford Fiesta launch here in the US, the excitement continues to simmer with sensation.  Just days ago, Ford Motor Company invited several members of the media out to the San Francisco Bay area to put the Ford Fiesta through its paces and subsequently share their thoughts on the car.  Overall, the men and women testing Ford’s fantastic feat-to-be decided the car is going to be a great success when it hits the marketplace.  If it isn’t, well then, we know there are more things wrong with America than what meets the eye.  With commentary such as “durability”, “tech-laden”, “competitive”, and many more keen kudos, we have to concede the US-spec Ford Fiesta is going to be a hit.  Why?  Examine the competition while your heart is still beating, and you’ll find the answer within minutes; the competition is lame.

Keep reading to get a sampling of just what the media team thought of the new 2011 Ford Fiesta.  We cannot wait to see this car launch!

Video: Ken Block promotes Gymkhana III in his Ford Fiesta20 Apr

  Filed Under: 2011 Fiesta,Videos

There is absolutely no doubt the guy knows how to drive…and drive he does in this teaser video for his annual drifting bonanza.  Gymkhana II had such popularity that it drew in almost 14 million viewers who kept their eyes glazed upon the amazing driving skills of Ken Block.  Now that Block has swapped over from the Subaru WRX STI to the 2011 Ford Fiesta, he’ll have a new bar to raise set.  This quick little video after the jump exhibits a mere taste of what’s to come later on this evening at the official debut at Gymkhana III  in San Francisco.  If you are in the vicinity, be sure to head down to San Francisco’s Taverna Aventine tonight at 8pm!

More buzz to support EcoBoost in the Ford Fiesta14 Apr

EcoBoost in the Ford Fiesta?

Every week, the exciting 2011 Fiesta morsels continue to trickle out, keeping us panting until the official summertime release.  We recently witnessed what could be the 2011 Ford Fiesta equipped with one of the EcoBoost power plants and now, we know Ford is planning to launch three more engines produced with the patented EcoBoost fuel-saving technology. Ford is also expecting these EcoBoost engines be available in about 80% of the company’s nameplates worldwide and about 90% of the brands in North America. This goes to show that Ford is quite serious about two things: efficiency & power. You don’t have to suffer in the MPG department in order to enjoy a zippy car or truck. If we leave it to Ford, they’ll make sure we don’t find ourselves in some econobox that gets great mileage, sure, but is completely lackluster in performance and appeal.

Keep reading to learn more about the next three EcoBoost engines and what they mean to the new Ford Fiesta.

A truly Quiet and Smooth ride in the Ford Fiesta08 Apr

  Filed Under: 2011 Fiesta

The 2011 Ford Fiesta is definitely a car built upon many contemporary principles: technology, quality, efficiency, and comfort.  Wait…comfort?  That’s right.  The all-new 2011 Fiesta is going to set the bar for ride quality in smaller cars, with a ride comfort level that matches, often surpassing, that of larger vehicles.  What’s more is the new Ford Fiesta provides a smooth(er) ride as well as a noteworthy quietness inside the cabin.

Ford didn’t exactly stumble onto this feat by any means.  The quietness found in the 2011 Ford Fiesta is a result of an attentive focus on the part of the Ford engineering design team.  They took a subcompact car from average to excellent in terms of interior noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) standards–levels comparable to larger Ford car brands.  So when the Ford Fiesta hits the dealership showrooms this summer, buyers will find the little car will have a quieter, smoother ride than the Honda Fit and the Toyota Yaris (proven by 80mph wind tunnel tests).
