context_page_description: The Ford Fiesta is a supermini marketed by Ford since 1976 over seven generations. It has been manufactured in the United Kingdom, Germany, Spain, Australia, Chile, Brazil, Argentina, Venezuela, Mexico, Taiwan, China, India, Thailand, and South Africa.
  In 2008, the sixth generation Fiesta was introduced worldwide, making it the first Fiesta model to be sold in North America since the Fiesta Mark I was discontinued at the end of 1980.
  Ford has sold over 16 million Fiestas since 1976, making it one of the best selling Ford marques behind the Escort and the F-Series.
context_section_description: On 24 February 2017, the seventh generation derived Fiesta ST was announced. It features an all-new 200 PS three-cylinder 1.5-litre Ecoboost engine with turbocharger and cylinder deactivation technology.
  On 12 March 2018, Ford announced that a Quaife Limited-Slip Differential would be offered for the first time on the Fiesta ST as part of an optional "Performance Pack". The pack also includes a "ST" shift change light in the instrument cluster and launch control.
  The all-new Fiesta ST also includes three selectable driving modes, a first for the model. These include "Normal", "Sport" and "Race Track". Each mode changes the characteristics of the car including the steering feel, throttle response, deactivating the engine 'start-stop' feature and opening the flap in the exhaust which increases the sound of the car.
  The Fiesta ST was released on 7 May 2018. Despite being heavier than the previous ST model, the new ST can go from a standstill to 62 mph (100 km/h) in 6.5 seconds. Power and torque have been increased to 197 bhp (200 PS) and 290 N⋅m (214 lbf⋅ft) respectively, which match the figures of the limited edition Fiesta ST200 of the previous generation. From launch, it is available in either a three-door or five-door body style, and comes standard with a six speed manual gearbox, with no option of an automatic. On 1 April 2019, the Fiesta ST-1 was discontinued, leaving only the ST-2 and ST-3 models.
  In April 2019, Ford announced a new limited edition model to the ST range called the "Performance Edition". Although named "Performance", the Fiesta ST does not gain any power upgrades to the standard ST. The car is based on the ST-3 model and comes with multiple options which would normally be a cost option to an ST such as, LED headlights, B&O sound system and Performance Pack. To differentiate the Performance Edition, the car comes with exclusive options, namely standard Deep Orange paint, lowered and adjustable ride height and lighter multi-spoke alloy wheels.
  The Ford Fiesta ST won Top Gear's Hot Hatch and Car of the Year for 2018.
