    HONEY I SHRUNK THE FOFI!

    It's funny to see a mini version of Ford Fiesta with the Ford KA. Looks really cute for the ladies hehe!

    Most people have probably seen this car in the James Bond movie "Quantum of Solace".

    The old Ka was a hit in the UK. It looked like a shrunken Ford Puma. The new one looks just like a retarded Fiesta. Its REALLY small. Girls and hairdressers only need to apply

    I hope they release it here. My wife and I are very pleased with our FoFi and looking to get our City replaced by next year. The KA will be a perfect second car!

    I'm sure it will be far superior on the FC side.

    This is the perfect platform for an EV car - parang golf cart lang.

    Masyadong maliit ang KA, parang mas maliit pa ito sa mga i10 and Celerio eh... The closest we have of something like this in Asia is India's Ford Figo... The KA has absolutely no chance of coming here in Asia...

    Nakita ko na rin to sa youtube.. Cute nga sya talaga at mukhang small Fiesta. Pero parang malabong dalhin sa pinas yan, but there is still a possibility. Im very happy with my current Fofi. Buti eto pinili ko..

    Although mas bagay nga siya actually for the asian market IMO as a niche vehicle since we have "cute" size vs. western countries. hehe

    Although it is smaller than the Tigra.

    It would be perfect for Mr. Bean's new adventures instead of James Bond movies

    I still remember the Minica back in the 80s. Ano ba brand yun?

    It was successful pero tinigilan ang release. Naging taxi pa nga dito sa San Fernando Pampanga yun.

    In its time it was given away to beauty contestants pa nga eh.

    I think it has a chance. Chevy also re-released their spark.

    Swabe ito sa pangmalapitan na driving sa grocery or mall. A perfect second car in the city. Sa highway medyo delikades...

    Minica is Mitsubishi. Do remember, wala tayong market for three door hatchbacks (the only ones successful are the Daihatsu Charade and Kia Pride) since five are the norm.

    Kung ako ang producer ng Mr Bean (live version) ito yung kukunin ko tas iauauction ko ang Green Mini.

    The 1.2 litre Ford Duratec petrol engine offers a combined fuel consumption of 4.9 l/100km. So that's 20km per liter. Not bad ah matipid talaga.

    If sold here, it will probably cost as much or more than a Fiesta so it really won't sell here.


    A higher spec Ka might even cost P900K or more.
    hehe

    If Ford had a tv commercial for this car, they might feature the Power Puff Girls

    hehe
    Thanks for reposting that.
    Let me also add that Fiat now has a 46% stake in Chrysler which they may increase to over 70% in the future.

    The Ka might be replaced by a model based on the Ford Start Concept.


    Start Concept's 1.0 liter 3-cylinder EcoBoost engine.

    Hindi bangis ang dating nito. Parang nakagat ng putakti at namaga buong katawan.

    Dun pa rin ako sa "Little FoFi" para set sila. Parang si "mini me" ni Austin Powers


Ford KA (Fiesta's little sister)
