Ford Ka TDCi Now Available in Diesel Form
The Ford Ka has had a successful run in Europe, with more than 1.4 millions unit produced since the car was launched in 1996. Now, Ford has come up with a new and redesigned Ka in collaboration with Fiat.
The new Ka offers two available engine choices: the 1.2 litre Duratec powerplant gas engine with 68 hp, and 46 mpg in city and highway driving, and the 1.3-liter Duratorq TDCi turbodiesel engine with 74 hp and direct injection that gets a total of 56 mpg. The top speed for both types of engines is 100 mph, and their carbon dioxide emissions under 120 grams/kilometer. The only transmission offered, however, is a five-speed manual, and obviously biodiesel-ready.
According to Ford, just becase a car is subcompact doesn’t mean that it doesn’t have room to ensure the passengers’ safety and comfort. The Ka’s bodyshell has a stable crash structure, and the car also has IPS or Intelligent Protection System, which integrates seating, airbags, and restraint systems
