2014 Ford Fiesta ST Review

FLUSHING, Mich. - Now that the 2014 Ford Fiesta is ready and available to Ford customers, we've decided to break down all the pros and cons to this sporty little compact with a 2014 Ford Fiesta ST review.

If you want a quick, couple word review, we'd have to say that the Fiesta ST is an affordable compact that is fuel efficient yet powerful and agile. However, if you'd like to linger over the specifics of this fantastic little car, sit back and relax while we go over the details.

The 2014 Ford Fiesta ST goes for about $21,400, which gets you a EcoBoost 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that is paired with a six-speed manual gearbox. This engine produces 197 HP and gets you from 0-60 mph in less than 6.9 seconds - pretty impressive for such a small car!

Speaking of size, the 2014 Ford Fiesta ST is the smallest car Ford offers in the U.S., with a total weight of 2,742 lbs. However, this pint sized vehicle produces quite a punch (as described above) and also handles like a dream. Ford has designed the ST to have fantastic grip with the road so that you can manipulate the ST quickly around curves and up hills. Ford has also put a 13.6:1 steering rack between the front wheels, giving the vehicle a kind of ratio that is often found in a road racer.

The biggest pro to this vehicle is definitely the way it drives. Not many people expect the ST to handle like a more expensive sports car simply because it's not. However, Ford has designed the vehicle in such a way that when you're ripping around the corners in this little ST, you might feel like you are. One of the cons is the vehicle's size, however, it's only a con to drivers who are used to a lot of room. While the ST's interior is spacious for a compact car, it in no way compares to the cabin space of the Ford Edge. So if you're big on interior cabin space and storage, the 2014 Ford Fiesta ST might not be for you.

We hope this 2014 Ford Fiesta ST review has helped get you thinking about this fantastic little compact. We here at Delehanty Ford love this vehicle, along with the vibrant hues exclusively available to it. If you'd like to take a Ford Fiesta out for a test drive, stop by our dealership today!

2014 Ford Focus ST Spy Shots

FLUSHING, Mich.- We recently reported on the new Ford Fiesta ST, and soon another updated model will be joining the Ford Special Vehicles Team! A few 2014 Ford Focus ST spy shots have hit the web after the prototype was spotted performance testing at the Nurgurgring in Germany! According to the photos, it appears the 2014 model will receive a slight facelift.

The latest 2014 Ford Focus ST spy shots lead us to believe the vehicle will receive a slight makeover that will bring it up to date with the new Ford Fiesta and Fusion. The most notable changes appear to be an updated grille, resembling that of the Fusion and Fiesta, as well as tweaked headlights. However, both the front and rear ends are heavily camouflaged which may conceal additional changes. Though we can expect the classic ST styling to remain the same with centrally mounted twin exhausts, bigger side-skirts, larger wheels and lower ride hight.

Exact features and specifications will become known when the new Focus ST makes its debut, possibly before the end of the year! And you can make it your own when it hits showrooms in the first half of 2014!

Discover the Focus ST at Delehanty Ford. We're located at 1510 E. Pierson Road, Flushing, MI 48433. Feel free to give us a call at (810) 659-5688 with any questions you may have.
