Next Gen Ford Fiesta ST Hot Hatch To Come With High Performance EcoBoost 3 Cylinder

Ford has dropped more hints of what’s in store for its next Fiesta ST hot hatch – revealed in our exclusive main image – and it’s likely that the all-new performance supermini will use a tuned version of the firm’s 1.0-litre three-cylinder EcoBoost engine in place of the current car’s 1.6 turbo.

Ford’s head of small cars in Europe, Darren Palmer, told Auto Express: “We’re seeing more and more of what we can do with the 1.0-litre engine in development and the signs are promising. It’s a great engine – it sounds brilliant and there’s loads of torque when the turbo comes on boost, so we’re looking into things for the next ST.”

The 1.0T is a decent engine. It will at least be interesting to see what they do.
