    Spying: Ford Fiesta

    The sub-compact market is heating up with vehicles like the Chevrolet Sonic, Kia Rio, and Hyundai Accent providing tough competition. One of the vehicles who kicked off the return of sub-compact vehicles, the Ford Fiesta, is getting a refresh.

    Car & Driver got their hands on some spy shots of a Ford Fiesta hatchback and sedan undergoing some testing.

    The Fiesta will take on some Ford's design cues seen on the Taurus and new Fusion. The front end will get an Aston Martin-esk grill layout and new headlights. Around the back, the sedan new taillights and a reshaped trunklid that brings it in line with the Focus. As the hatchback, changes are unknown for the time being.

    Also, expect Ford's new 1.0L three-cylinder EcoBoost engine to possibly replace the current 1.6L four-cylinder.

    Expect to see the refreshed Fiesta make an appearance later this year or sometime next year.

    • I'm really thrilled about this ... stupid as it may be Dallas has always been connected nonstop to Rome by American Airlines, which is headquartered at DFW.  Houston has not yet had a nonstop flight to Rome, which seemed ridiculous. One is coming soon.  Houston hubbed United won't be doing it.  However, since ITA joined Star Alliance under Lufthansa, ITA will be providing the nonstop, which is even cooler in my book.  I'd love to fly that segment.
    • This is surreal... Former Minnesota governor Jesse the Body Ventura and WWF superstar wrestler  Yup...you guessed it... from the 1987 version of the Running Man...Captain Freedom      
    • The movie Running Man, ESPECIALLY the 1987 original version, I do not know about the book, but the 1987 movie is what is happening to the usa right now.  Its eerie how close it is to 2025 reality.  Its even more eerie how passive americans are to their new reality... And no...shoving smart phones in the face of a gestapo ice agent and saying to him to go home or being dressed up as giraffes and calling that a protest is NOT effective... Especially when the trump admin has given the gestapo ice the green light to EXECUTE ANYONE protesting even when ya'll "protesting"  in giraffe suits...   
    • I did not forget.  I just wanted to showcase ice agents and the lies your government is shoveling is EQUIVALENT to a 1980s dystopian future action flic that was remade this year and ice, trump, noem  and fox news is exactly ICS and Killian.  Anyway...here is what actually happened just before she got murdered.  
    • You forgot the two shootings last night in Portland Oregon. 3 shootings in 24 hours. ICE is a Terrorist Group!!!
