EXCLUSIVE KNEE AIRBAG

 Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety

Fiesta - a small car that is big on safety - features a class-leading array

of seven airbags including a class exclusive driver's knee airbag, Tire

Pressure Monitoring System, four-wheel anti-lock brakes and Ford's

acclaimed AdvanceTrac®. No other car in Fiesta's segment offers as many

airbag restraints or Trinity front crash structure. That is why the no-compromise

Fiesta was named a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for

Highway Safety.

POWERSHIFT TRANSMISSION AND SFE

The Ford PowerShift transmission - yet another Fiesta class-exclusive - is a dual-clutch, direct-shift six-speed transmission that eliminates the need for a heavy torque convertor. This world-class gearbox provides quick shifts across six optimally spaced gears to provide swift acceleration and low engine speeds while cruising. Reduced internal friction and weight help PowerShift to increase Fiesta fuel economy, too.

For buyers placing top priority on fuel economy, Fiesta SE sedans and hatchbacks can be specified with a Super Fuel Economy (SFE) package combining the PowerShift automatic transmission, a rear spoiler, side air deflectors, underbody shields, lower grille blockers, low-rolling-resistance tires and cruise control.
