Fiesta and Fusion 2006 previews |
| 10 Nov 2005 |
Every Fiesta and Fusion in the Ford small car line-up has had a colour and style makeover for 2006. Britain's popular small cars are now available with big-car features including voice-controlled temperature, phone and audio systems.
Distinctive new exterior styling, fresh new interiors, vibrant new colours and an impressive list of new equipment are sure to keep the Fiesta and Fusion top of the sales charts.
The 2006 Fiesta and Fusion offer many features that are usually only available in larger cars including: rain-sensing wipers, automatic home-safe headlamps, air conditioning with automatic electronic temperature control, satellite navigation, trip computer, one-shot-down driver's power window, power/adjustable heated door mirrors that fold inwards and a MP3 connection socket for the integrated stereo systems.
Modern new seat fabrics and fascia colour combinations give the 2006 models a contemporary feel. With more than a dozen combinations on Fiesta alone, customers can create an original and distinctive new car.
Vibrant exterior colours for Fiesta and Fusion include tango red, amethyst, and sublime. Each range also has a unique colour - apple for Fiesta and Spanish olive for Fusion.
