All wheel drive 2 liters putting out 800hp?! We just had to show up and say hi to Tanner Foust and Ford’s 2009 Ford Fiesta rally car.

@nickyp28 In European Rallycross the engines run a 56mm turbo restrictor, so make around 550bhp once restricted.
how do i get my hands on one of those?
you would think block would be home…….
yeah but the wrx sti is avalible to us in awd.. the focus and fiesta is only avalible in fwd.. the awd fords are custom made for rally america and the wrc..
yeah.. thats the same reason why they dont bring the focus rs and the ford gt here.. american ford motor company wants it so that the mustang gt is the fastest car they have so you buy it for the high price tag.. cause if they brought the rs over here,, people would think.. well why buy a mustang when you can get a focus that has more power stock and is cheaper? :/
Nice car the ford fiesta!!!
i’m from swden and i have kenny’s autograf:) !
Subaru sounds a lot better than this car. But I owned a Subie so I am bias.
it’s always been like that. ford can’t have a hatchback challenging a mustang because they know the fiesta would win and hurt the stangs sales. it really sucks though it would be so awesome if it came here.
Yep, European Rallycross car, awsome series filled with 2 ltr hatchbacks putting out that amount of power
There will never be an AWD 2.0l turbocharged Fiesta on sale. It basically a beefed up Division 1 rallycross car: turbo and AWD system piled into whatever body shell is found lying around. In Poland one driver used a bored out Escort Cosworth engine and various AWD parts (including Porsche 928 and Ford RS200 parts) in a 2nd gen Focus body shell. There’s more little city cars in Div1, like Peugeot 207, Renault Clio or new Skoda Fabia, all with AWD, sequential transmissions and around 600hp.
HOLY FU**
800 hp from a 2.0 L engine?….THT”S INSANE
Well ford are using the fiesta as a advertising tool in the state as they want to introduce smaller cars into the market, thats why they entered Pikes Peak, X-Games etc to show people what it can do lol
plus i prefer this to the new WRX
the ford fiesta driver (brack) is from sweden, congratz to him.
For a little car, it has a lot of heart.
ows.. 800hp?…
why not try subaru impreza?…
hehe…
Unfortunately not. Just like what Ford did with the Focus, we’ll get a watered down version and more than likely, not performance version for a few years.
Will we have an AWD fiesta in the states? I’ve become a fan after that little car defeated evo’s and subies.
This car is not ugly. It’s a neat ili car. Hell I was pulling for it during X-Games.
Im not a huge Travis Pastrana fan. I would take Ken Block, and Tanner Foust over TP any day.
And the Ford Fiesta took gold!!
still an ugly car though
Yeah, where the hell did I get 2.4? I guess I better ease up a little on watching car videos on the web lol
BWAHAHAHAH, does no one else find that intro retarded??? fricken enzo revs sounding like a ferrari then takes off and sounds like an old muscle car? wtf, if your real car ppl you would change that… its very very very bad.
yet its first try in xgames and it takes the gold!
just so you know, its a 2 liter. even crazier
wow, i remember the old fiestas, always wanted to drop a 289 in one lol, um, the japs didnt invent rally, it was none of the less the product of norwegians, if they didnt invent it they sure as hell perfected it, but subaru are some of the best out there now, but the mcrae escort back when in the 60′s to me my all time fav
