Ford Fiesta Zetec-S Red Edition

What is it?

When the Fiesta was launched back in 2008, we were told the Zetec-S would be as hot as it got in Ford’s supermini range.

Anyway, Henry lied and 2013 gave us the hot hatch legend, the ST.

But what do SME directors do if they can’t live with the ultimate fast Fiesta’s unyielding ride and high 20% business costs?

Well, those clever bods in Ford’s Ecoboost engine team have come up with an answer, in the form of a 138bhp version of the amazing, award-winning 1.0-litre engine. This is then slotted into the Fiesta body, with an ST-like bodykit and given the warm Fiesta tag – the Zetec-S.

Available now, Ford is only offering this new version of the Zetec-S, with the distinctive Black or Red Edition packs, priced at £15,995.
