The all-new global Fiesta four-door premium sedan arrives in India with a tremendous reputation thanks to an amazing track record of auto awards, critical acclaim and record-breaking sales. The car has topped international the charts with over 1 million sales worldwide, and has wowed customers, critics and dealers globally. The Fiesta brings a mix of comfort, performance and connectivity that extends an `always connected’ feel, previously unseen in the premium sedan segment.

The car is fabulous, and here at Ford India the team is confident that it will be loved by India. “The new Fiesta will be a segment-leading product in India with intuitive first-in-class smart features and fuel economy that raises the bar in every way,” said Michael Boneham, president and managing director of Ford India, unveiling the car. “Fiesta is a dynamic, premium car that elicits an emotional response from both the observer and driver,” he added.
