Ford introduced the new Fiesta ST in the UK. The new hot mini features a high-output variant of the award-winning 1.6-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, capable of 200 hp and 214 lb.-ft. of torque.

The new Fiesta ST will be offered in two trims, with the base ST model starting at £16,995, and the better-equipped ST2 grade, priced at £17,995.
Standard equipment will include 17-inch alloy wheels, front fog lights, DAB radio, SYNC connectivity, a Thatcham CAT 1 alarm, Recaro seats, My Key and air conditioning for the base model, with the ST2 trim adding partial leather heated Recaro seats, Sony DAB radio, Ford keyless start, privacy glass and LED daytime running lamps for an additional £1,000.
