Overview Of Zetec S Cars
Picture Of Zetec S CarsThe Zetec S was the highest Fiesta trim, and although its 1.6 16v Sigma engine was available in other Fiestas (such as the Freestyle) the Zetec S pushed out 102 bhp, and had major alterations to the suspension, with stiffer anti-roll bars and uprated brakes shared with the Puma.
The Zetec S was never developed for outright straight line speed. The main aim of the Fiesta is to be a small but nimble family hatchback.
The Zetec S Mk 4 facelift has a sizeable following, with many websites dedicated to the vehicle. Most notably is ZSOC, the Zetec S Owners Club (www.zsoc.com).
There is also a tuning culture devoted to this model, with reputable companies such as Milltek Sport and Shawspeed developing performance parts solely for the Sigma engine.
This model formed the basis of the Ford Ikon (code name C195), which is a four-door Saloon designed for India, where Ford was now producing cars in a joint venture with Mahindra.[citation needed] The Ikon was also introduced in other developing countries, such as Brazil (where it is known as the Fiesta Sedan), South Africa, Mexico and China, where saloons (sedans) are preferred to hatchbacks. They are extremely reliable, and became one of Ford's successes. There were also four truck variants, the simplest being the "Fiesta Van" which was a three-door hatchback with the rear quarter windows blanked over and the rear seat omitted. Another van with a boxy rear body and stretched wheelbase used the Courier nameplate and formed the basis of two pickup models, one with the short doors of the 5-door hatchback and small quarterlights in the style of larger extended cab pickups, made in South Africa; and another with the 3-door's longer doors and no quarter windows, made in Brazil.
The Fiesta was still Britain's best-selling supermini in 2001, by which time it was making use of a design over a decade old (though heavily updated visually and mechanically). In three-door form, it was sold alongside the Mk 5 Fiesta from April to December 2002.
