Ford Fiesta Hatchback Coming to North America
By Scott Doggett May 30, 2008
Ford Motor Co. has added a hatchback version of the Fiesta to the 2010 North American launch of the small economy car, which will be sold alongside the sedan.
Ford will build the hatchback and sedan at its plant in Cuautitlán, Mexico, starting in early 2010 as part of a $3 billion investment in the country, the automaker said in a statement today.
The Fiesta will give Ford a fuel-efficient competitor against such cars as the Honda Fit and the Nissan Versa...
The Fiesta nameplate is one of Ford's best-known global small cars. It was last used on a North American vehicle in 1981.
Ford CEO Alan Mulally said the automaker hasn't decided whether the hatchback Fiesta will be a three-door, five-door (above) or come in both configurations.
