Been hating on this since I first saw it but I've just realised its a good thing because it will maintain the value of the current model 👍🏻😇
I have the 2014 model ST an as a retired truck driver of 34 years at 3.2 Million accident free miles and having 15 cars and 9 Motorcycles, my Fiesta ST is the most fun I have ever had while driving, you fell so connected to the road, and I have a aftermarket 3 inch exhaust system witch sounds fantastic, and some otter goodies, I just bought a new set of Perelli P zero Neroes for it today and going to test them out on Angeles crest Highway, it's all about the Grip. I embarrass a lot of people in that car.
mike chavez I have a 2016 with intercooler, modified air box, RMM, res delete, and Cobb access port. With new tires this car definitely scoots
my mate has a similar car the VW Polo GTI, he puts the a cheaper semi-slick on the front and the cheapest tyre on the back. lets the car be really tail happy and controllable
mike chavez I put P Zero Neros' on my 15' St2.. got to say.. they aren't great in the wet! Hopefully you live somewhere sunny! Enjoy!
I live in sunny So-Cal, they are very sticky, there's as good as the OME Bridgestone's, the Bridgestones are $178 and the Perelli's were only $100.
mike chavez very luck! I'm not trying to be negative in any way.. BUT.. the OME Bridgestones are dreadful too! If you think the Neros give you good grip, try a set of Nankang NS2Rs or Yokohama Prada spec 2... talk about another level! Enjoy my friend!
im sold, deffo getting the previous gen.
They don't want to release a fiesta RS because it would hurt the focus RS sales too much. & would possibly be just as quicker for less money than the focus RS.
I think it's more to protect the Focus ST.
I've got a four door 120 in black & I'm well impressed.
The little 3 cylinder eco boost is a joy to use.
It will hit 70 in third with revs to spare & handles like it's on rails.
Don't dismiss it until you've driven one ..!
Good god more sheep, everyone seems to be hating on this car already just for likes, it's getting ridiculous. No one has driven it, almost no one has seen it in the flesh. Since when has everyone become so quick to judge?
I for one love the new design and I'm certainly not the only one. To be controversial I think its considerably better looking that the outgoing design and any other super mini on the market.
Alex Dean the only thing we can judge is it's looks. With the performance being extremely similar to the previous, it needs to look better, more sportier, more road presence. But it fails badly.
This is an extremely ugly looking car! which I will not be getting. Once my current cars finance runs out I'm upgrading to the previous version of the St, not this.
Looks like a cruze hatch
Test drive a st-3 today. Wow! I could not stop smiling, it made me feel like a kid again. The steering is pin point, brakes are very good. The engine is very quiet driven normal, but give it sme welly and it's a riot. Great noises, sounds like a rally car when you lift off the accelerator. It's very quick, The looks don't bother me, it how it makes me feel when driving it. Gl for test drive and you'll be surprised with the engine.
Front looks good, the back is a bit too much like a minivan. And with the 3-pot engine, there wont be the same kind on tuneability off of the shelf. There are a lot of current gen STs running 250-260hp with a very small selection of aftermarket parts. I think that more people will move to the Focus ST for the next generation of hatchbacks.
The new Focus ST is rumored to also have a 1.5 3 cylinder turbo with 275 hp.
The problem I have with inline 3 engines (and V6s) is not the displacement or power, it's that the engines are inherently less balanced and that in this case, the engine has less room for upgrades since it is already being pushed a bit to make the 200 ps form the factory
Balance is less of an issue if you don't have to rev it so hard. Turbos cover a lot for that. I agree with the comment about "headroom", it will be interesting to see what the turners are able to achieve.
I like the new front end, the sides, the interior and the alloys are a huge improvement. However, why on earth did they give it the rear end off of a B-Max. It looks like they made the front end sleeker by pulling all the fat to the back of the car.
I think the new st looks horrible compared to the previous st . The back of the car looks like a people carrier
Major HJMAC I agree...big step back for ford. and 3 cyl??
If you heard what he has said then what were you expecting? A v6?
Vision33r no I didnt expect to see a v6..however this would be cool. it just seems with a 3cyl tuning may be limited vs the 1.6 in the 2014 to 2016 st where 200 and up whp and 300 tq is achievable with dp fmic and tune. just my op tho.
The Bromleys - I'm also very curious to see how this car will stack up to the out going fiesta in the tuning department. That's one of the reasons the current fiesta is so popular. It's a tiny engine that still had room from the factory to make more power giving it's owners something to play with. I wonder if the new 3 cylinder will have that same room for growth or will it be pretty much maxed out from the factory just to compete with the 4 cyl engine so ford can say "You don't loose any power with this new engine". Personally I don't see how this engine can have the same potential the current engine has. Lets hope I'm wrong.
biggboysouth I completly agree! I guess we will see when they come out how they compare to the mighty 1.6!
I would imagine the weight distribution is better also, with the lighter 3cyl.
3 cylinders is gonna sound like sex. But the current gen fiesta st is a better looking car.
Given less displacement, friction, and heat. How much of an improvement in gas mileage?
How long are they expecting the new Fiesta to last? "Technology has moved on" but we all know that little engines under a lot of stress wont last. It's gotta be all about the boost to get that much power out of a 1.5
Please bring the 2 door to the US!
yes plz ford!
Looks like you're not getting the new fiesta at all!
Did Boosted Boris interview anyone at Geneva like last year with Koenigsegg?
being timely with questions is one thing, but you couldn't have been more rude with your consistent "yeah!, mmhmm!, ok!" input. If you want answers, then respect the gentleman when asking him a question and shut your mouth long enough for him to get out a clear word. Though that may be just how I was raised.
An overboosted in a 3 cylinder is sick af imo. It's like vvti tech, but utilizing a turbo to replace compression.
Brilliant car fantastic drives like a dream much better than the previous model
I love and i mean love and like the old one's headlights! Bring it back!
If you're that worried about getting a fiesta rs buy the old shape fiesta, get an rs body kit with hurricane exhaust, high flow cat, tune it to 300bhp and put a differential on it.
Nobody can really say anything to you if you put an rs badge on that.
Very good interview Micha!
I actually like the fact it has 3 cylinders, it sets it apart from the competition and 3 cylinders sound quite good imo if a little farty.
actually me to 3 cylinders sounds like mini straight 6! :D
Or half a flat six!
It's half a Porsche 991.2 Carrera S!
MRFUCKOFF202 Bad fuel economy when you floor a 3 cylindre. And a hot hatch is meant to be floored.
Maybe you feel it should have acute flower holder in the front too aye?
bad fuel economy when you floor anything with a turbo lol
Boosted Boris should have done top 5 features ! (with the background music)
I too believe that downsizing is a good thing to get reduced fuel consumption with the same power. However, it's disappointing that the new Fiesta ST has the same fuel consumption as the new Polo GTI (which has the same amount of power), despite of the fact that it has an 1.5 l, 3 cylinder engine as opposed to a 2.0 l, 4 cylinder engine in the Polo.
Great insight into the Fiesta. Agreeing with the comments, the back end does just look like an MPV, It's a bit more of a conservative design.
great work Misha, very pro 👍
ST has taken the Apple approach. We are giving you more in the iPhone (no more AUX), we are giving you more in the new ST -1 cylinders.
Well its all fine but common.. no mater what technology You use FORD, the stock cat-back rosnated exhaust would be a win in this car. I want to lease one but changing exhaust is a little hustle. If it had it stock it would sell like crazy. Just look at i30N.
Looks good except for the dash display. I would have one if they fixed that and the silly seat belt reminder tone.
I know this is an old vid, but he said there is NO plans for a fiesta RS and to buy the Focus RS or the Fiesta ST. Well the Focus RS is not going to be built past April 2018. So what's Ford going to do about the RS line? The only option is the Fiesta because that's what I see running in the WRC. There has been talking of a front wheel drive fiesta RS and I see no point in that because that just kills ST sales. So the only real option for a fiesta RS is an AWD fiesta with higher hp than the ST . Then you have the issue of the Focus ST being pointless.
I call B.S. on no Fiesta RS..! I'm thinking about a 230ish HP AWD Fiesta RS in 2019.
great interview thanks a lot from sunny south africa 👋🏿
Anyone heard the 1.0 L ecoboost engines middle cylinder turns into a heat pump to rid the engine of excess heat when load isn't required? That's a fun fact
this actually pretty smart, i imagine it works as the cilinder is filled with air and compresed but no fuel injected right?
No replacement for displacement no matter what he says. Turbo is just a palliative.
A cheeky little teaser video. I look forward to the details being fleshed out in the coming year.
It doesn't look very sporty or shout this is a hot hatch which is cool , it doesn't look the part . It's a good looking fiesta, maybe the best of all time but it does look like an st
I want to know when the Focus ST is going to get interior like this. Would be worth trading mine in with a more competitive interior like that!
They finally have the blue color that I like, I had to buy a white 15 Fiesta ST
Had the previous model s . Wtf has ecu , power management , ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. TCM.... IF THEY IMPROVED IT Would like to see it
were u drunk?
Aren't all Russian's drunk?
He was drinking on the job. Didn't you watch his previous vlogs?
LOL
3 cilinders? wtf downsize did not finish yet?
I think it looks great! I hope it comes to the U.S., it's still up in the air if it is.
I'd want a 3 door Focus ST with the 2.3 EB..
When does production end of the outgoing model? I was told they've stopped building it now but I don't know if that's lies.
An I-3 with more power that the new 2018 Honda Civic Si. Damn Honda.
getting my 2016 st in june got to e 4 cylinders for me
Very good interview Misha
so the v6 is better now because of advanced technology.
did the v8s technology not advance?
wil the st get xenon or LED-Headlights ?
will the 3 cylinder Ecoboost be good for a 100k miles. If the reliability of the 2.0 Ecoboost in the st focus is anything to go by then the answer is no. All this power has got to shorten the life of the engine.
You care why? who drives 100k in the car anyway. 2-3 years max
looks like independent rear 6:15?
any word if this will overboost to 215 hp?
Is there going to be a ST-2 and 3? Is it worth getting this car or will it be the old, outdated model in a years time?
I still don't know why anyone would get a financed Fiesta when you can get an EP3 Type R for less than £2k and have a lot more fun and a better car.
Misha wear you like extremly drunken doing the interview ? :D
I thought he did fine.
I am happy with ST200.
Good interview Misha!
wait wait wait i wonder if the 1.5 bottom end on my 1.0 ecoboost????
Thanks Misha, great video. I like you shirt by the way hehe.
Yeah, you're on your way! You're pretty decent! Bravo!
What about your 3F rule? One of the Fs is no Ford, right? :-) Just kidding, looking forward to test drive it. I would like to know if the weight distribution between front and rear axis was improved compared to the current model.
lol 3 cyl such shame could have gone with inline 5 for st model and make it exceptional.
Misha, i think your Video Title is incorrect ;P (WHY SHOULD WE BUY 2018 FOCUS FIESTA ST?)
I would if it were available in the states!
Personally I think this fiesta looks ugly, I love the look or my fiesta st3 and the mr230 kit is bliss, no chance would I upgrade to this, with the 1.5 3 cylinder this is more the kinda car for your casual driver, who wants a fast tidy little hatchback on lease for a couple years and then trades in, I can't see enthusiasts going for this in the slightest the little engine is maxed out from the box, and doesn't help that it looks terrible too (especially from the back)
So many assumptions in one short comment. Holy moly.
Looks are subjective. As for the engine, the new Focus ST is rumored to have the same 1.5 3 cylinder turbo only with 275 hp. So I doubt 200 hp is the max for this engine. BMW has had a 231 hp 1.5 3 cylinder for several years now in the i8 and Ford managed to push their 1.0 3 cylinder turbo to 165 hp for the Formula Ford with relative ease. My guess is this will be same for the 1.5.
And besides all that the new Fiesta ST is (even) lighter than the Mk7 Fiesta ST. I'd hold off judgement until the new one is released.
197 bhp
Make a convertible Fiesta ST to compete with Mini S and JCW soft tops Ford?Traded my 2015 ST for a topless car,but the Fiesta ST was a great used car for the money.
Thing is if Ford can do a 3 pot engine now with the same power as the 1.6 ecoboost then why the fck did'nt they give the current 1.6 the stage 1 Mountune as stock as they were happy to warrant it or fit it at their dealers for a rip off price for about 15bhp more there was always more reserve power in it?
Please bring it to South Africa
Basically an fiesta st3 with a new shell then. and 1 less cylinder and no fiesta rs again....... ha ha big mistake thanks for this video saved me upgrading. ill stick with my st3
Yeah okay, but do we really NEED a Fiesta RS? Don't think so. 6,7sec/100km, 230km+ top speed. That's unbelievable. 👍
Sneaker King NL no faster than the old car? Top speed must be around 140mph not anywhere near 200mph as you said 😂
E Walker Oopsie. 😀
Sneaker King NL I'm pretty sure the old model was 0-60/62 in 6.7secs. I had the mountune version that did it in 6.4secs. With the looks of this one i may just buy another one of the last model
In one quick glance I prefer the current model over this one.
1 liter and 3 cyl, this is getting closer to the size of my lawn mower and will probably sound the same.
its not a 1.0liter, its a 1.5
how much does it weigh??
wasnt that guy on mighty car mods?
he was not amused when marty sent the rs
Well, interesting definition of early 2018
3 cyliders aside - looks wise it's lost it's character. Which will be the classic in the future? Easy...the original.
The reason I want this car to be good is so that I could by the 2014 used model for less... now it looks that the old model will maintain its value :(
misha mhy mhy mhy mhy mhy mhy
mhm
For all those "Experts" we must WAIT to see the numbers on track of the this car, a 3 cyl engine can sound strange to me too but the downgrade it`s a thing now, in the F1 some years ago they has big V12 and now the V8 does the work better... the new Audi R8 have the V6 of the Porshe Panamera and the Lamborghni V10 it's an option in some countries, the world move on guys
I don't think this car is gonna be able to handle 300+ hp like the previous model
Great content but you should get rid of the "mm hmm", "okay", "right", "yup". It gets annoying really quickly. You don't always have to add useless speaking in between his pauses . Again - great content
I want RS model. Definitely NOT going to buy this 2018 model.
alloys are rank, car looks minging. Colour is minging. Oh well fiesta ST-3 in blue/purple fuck getting the new one
Because it's a huge UP!grade from the UP!
are those wheels 18s? waay oversized for that car. i have 100% faith in the sport technology department; asthetically its hideous, but I'll trade my 14 st in for it in a heartbeat
Drew J well keep me posted on that one, because I love the look of my 2014, it's silver with carbon fiber wrapped hood black wheels 3 inch exhaust tinted windows it's sick looking, I get so many complements on it every day, there more rare than the Focus, they will be collectibles in years to come.
One thing though, what is with all manufacturers and their floating displays?? Put it back in the dash where it belongs!
Is it AWD tho ?
Focus Fiesta?? Naaah Boris was drunk
well, at least they fixed the hiddious rearlights ^^
The current Fiesta ST rear is much better than this new one...
Norborgring. xD
thanks Misha, cool vid
Disappointed, no plans for fiesta RS ☹️
Take note people! As this is how to take a car from hero to zero, I've seen sportier looking lettuce leaves
The front of the car look pretty bad ass but the back looks so freaking bad, just a crappy "all brand already use style". Just keep 2017 back and change for the 2018 front and I'll be fine with that .:P
some magazin say that FF St Will have 1.5L Engine... WTF..
Very very expensive for what it is IMO. Mini cooper s would trump this and the polo gti. Tuneability is what sells performance cars, most people who have a original fiesta st consider tuning when buyin and when they buy ome they tune it because it's even more fun. For instance mountune do upgrades that don't void the warranty so has this been taken into consideration?? Alot of st fiestas have the mountune upgrade. This is too pricey and I'd rather have 2nd hand german enginering than pay for this old womans shed.
Audi s1's still remain in another league and you'll have a blast from stock. They've al'so got very high tuning potential and plant the power.
Screw you ford although the focus rs is superb car but thats another debate.
I bet this engine will need to rev higher which would take away from the fun factor. The biggest this 3 Cyl will have vs 4 Cyl will be sound. I bet it will sound like crap. you can't hide that.
Al S Not that 4 cylinder engines sound good to begin with, this certainly doesn't help. Guess I'll be keeping my ST220 for a long time. And go for a 2018 Mustang GT :D.
buy the st 200 and watch it go up in value or retain its value in a few years
Great video fellow comrade :)
Would anyone wanna see a Ford Focus St sedan, rear wheel drive?
give us fiesta rs !
Well done!
