DeluxeStang Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 https://insideevs.com/news/676527/ford-not-rule-out-bringing-back-fiesta-vw-meb-based-ev/ So are we going back to cars again? Or will this be some form of crossover with the fiesta badge if it comes to market? Very odd for Ford of Europe to say they have no plans for a ev fiesta, and then to say only a few months later that they're considering it. Maybe they realize that the fiesta is one of their "icons" and shouldn't be abandoned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford has a long history of saying we aren't going to do this and then a few months later saying we are doing this lol. As an old forum poster 2b2 used to say "if Ford says it, it's only true for that day, it will probably change later on" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know, but over the last few months, they've gone from "A fiesta ev definitely isn't happening" to "We're certainly open to the idea". That's progress imo.

I am friends with him on facebook he's still around but seems to be in a rut or something posts a lot of angry political stuff on facebook in his usual typing manner. I know he got really fed up on FIN with another poster and just gave up on forums all together I think. Every once and a while I get a hi and a question from him regarding computers or cars but not much else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
