The Ford Fiesta Active
The Ford Fiesta Active
Ford’s all-new Fiesta takes the beloved supermini and adds rugged SUV styling and versatility to create a crossover that’s perfect for more compact European roads.
There’s far more to the Ford Fiesta Active than body cladding and bigger wheel arches. The Active has a ride position 18mm higher than the conventional Fiesta, creating a driving position that provides a superior view. With enhanced suspension and damper settings, including a 10mm wider track, the Fiesta Active can cope with sharp jolts and rough surfaces, perfect for taking on even the most challenging pot-holed surfaces. And with perfectly weighted steering and balanced body roll you’ll be able to negotiate winding roads and challenging corners with ease.
The entry-level Active 1 trim offers LED lights, 17-inch alloys, an SUV body kit with Active badges, rear privacy glass and rear electric windows.
The B&O Play trim level adds the 8-inch touchscreen Sync 3 communications and entertainment system with emergency assistance and DAB radio. You’ll also get black alloys, black contrast roof, yellow interior theme, cruise control, automatic wipers and safety features including traffic sign recognition and driver alert.
The range-topping Active X trim upgrades the interior with part-leather trim and heated front seats, along with plenty of great tech such as automatic climate control, keyless entry and start, power-folding door mirrors, rear-view camera and rear parking sensors.
Choose from Normal, Eco and Slippery to find the perfect drive for every condition. Normal mode is designed for everyday driving while the Eco setting adjusts the engine and throttle settings to deliver the most efficient drive and help save fuel. Slippery mode adjusts the car’s traction control to help reduce wheel spin and give you confidence when driving on lower-grip surfaces, like snow or mud.
There’s a choice of four six-speed 1.0T EcoBoost engines available offering 85PS, 100PS, 125PS or 140 PS along with a 100PS automatic version. There’s also a 1.5 TDCi diesel engine with variants offering 85PS or 120PS. All engines come with start/stop technology.
