Aimed at those who are searching for a frugal and versatile city car with a dash of cargo carrying ability, Ford of Europe has released the all-new Fiesta Van and SportVan models. Compared to the standard Fiesta, the rear side windows have been replaced by body-colored solid panels while the rear passenger seats have been removed to provide a load box area of 1,000 cubic liters, with a maximum useable load length of 1,296mm, as well as a maximum load box width of 1,278mm and a height of up to 806mm.
Depending on the version, the Fiesta SportVan features a payload range from 490kg to 515kg (1,080 - 1,135 lbs).
The new Fiesta Van is available in Europe with a choice of three engines, a 1.25-litre 82HP petrol unit and two diesels, a 1.4-litre 68HP TDCi and the top-of-the-range 1.6-litre 90HP TDCi turbo diesel that equips the SportVan model.
