> 2012 fiesta Features: Design

Thoughtful design touches such as a cell phone-inspired center console, available painted metallic accents, soft-touch materials and durable, tailored-looking seat fabrics are pure eye candy. Available features such as leather-trimmed seats with contrast piping, SYNC® and push-button start reinforce that Fiesta is a choice, not a compromise.

Whether you choose the hatch or sedan, you'll find plenty of room for your stuff inside the Fiesta. The hatch has excellent interior storage volume. The sedan has all the same smart storage features as the hatch, including space for your water bottle, MP3 player, mobile phone, sunglasses and other everyday items. It also has enough room in back for laundry bags, groceries or other items you might need to pick up while you're on the move.

The Fiesta has a front end you can't miss: low-slung, with an aerodynamic look and piercing dragon's-eye headlamps. LED supplemental parking lamps provide a distinctive glow, while the unique razor-slash side panel helps accentuate its cut-and-run stance. When combined with the upswept rear end, the net result is obvious: The Fiesta is ready to spring into action.

Unique colors surround the Fiesta, inside and out. The Fiesta offers nine exterior paint color options, including two premium paints: Yellow Blaze Metallic Tri-coat and Red Candy Metallic Tinted Clearcoat. On the inside, Fiesta has the most available material color selections in its class*. That includes available leather-trimmed seats with contrast piping, which come in Plum Red or Cashmere with Charcoal Black piping or Charcoal Black with Cashmere piping. You choose.

*Class is Compact Cars.

Whether it's people or gear you want to move, the Fiesta is designed to fit your lifestyle. The Fiesta hatchback gives you easy access to the cargo area, and all models have rear seats that easily fold down, providing versatile storage on demand. The storage compartments in the Fiesta were also designed to hold everyday items: cupholders that fit different-sized bottles and containers, slots to hold your cell phone and MP3 player, and even a place to stash those toll tickets.

Available in red and white, the Interior Appearance Packages include color-coordinated leather-trimmed seats and assorted interior accents.

There are the obvious: body style, sculpture and a decklid spoiler,* to name a few. But the Fiesta boasts of many not-so-obvious design and engineering characteristics that minimize air resistance and increase efficiency, including grille blanking** to reduce the lower grille opening, aero-shaped body-mounted mirrors and a line cut into the rear taillamps. Camouflaging aerodynamic details with style is one more way the Fiesta thrills.

*Available on sedan with the Super Fuel Economy (SFE) Package, standard on hatch.
**Available Super Fuel Economy Package on SE model only.

Soft-touch materials and durable, tailored-looking seat fabrics help provide a calm and comforting environment when the city noise around you is anything but. Hidden details in design such as a standard acoustic-laminate windshield, double-layered door seals and expandable foam baffles in the pillars help keep the noise at bay. Tight-fitting body panels and a low, flexible chin spoiler under the front bumper help reduce wind turbulence. The body panels have also been engineered specifically to help resist long-term squeaks and rattles, while Ford engineering advancements to the engine isolation systems help keep sound levels low.
