Ken Block's wild Ford Fiesta

26th January 2010

Take a look at the fiercest Ford’s Fiesta yet. This wild looking machine is set to take to the rally stages of America with Ken Block behind the wheel.

Despite sharing it’s look with the European Fiesta S2000, the newcomer is a very different beast. Backed by energy drink giant Monster, the newcomer is based on a five-door and is powered by a fire-breathing 2.0-litre turbocharged engine.

The four-wheel drive supermini has been Designed and built by Swedish specialist Olsbergs Motor Sport Evolution, which also created a similar car for former WRC champ Marcus Gronholm’s attack on the famous Pikes Peak hillclimb.

While Block will use the Fiesta in the US-based Rally America championship, he will switch to a Focus WRC for his World Rally Championship outings. Official pictures of that car will be released in the next few days.
