Hey the more AWD model based on the Fiesta platform, the more my dream of fitting an AWD system on a FiST is alive.
Clearly, they are able to put an AWD system on a Fiesta body. While we don't see what it looks like under it, I would not be surprised if the only thing in the way would be the spare tire well (like the Focus).
I do wonder why they are using a Fiesta body to test an eventual small SUV... why not just use an EcoSport? If it's a next generation EcoSport, just use the current EcoSport body, same if it's a mini Bronco on the same platform. Why use a Fiesta body?
Wishful thinking would be a Fiesta RS, but it's way too high for that. The bigger arches would make sense as they would want bigger tires for an RS and AWD, but the height throws everything off. Also the 5 bolts pattern, but then the EcoSport is also 4 bolts, why would it be 5 bolts on the same platform?
So the mini bronco would compete against the Renegade I guess?
