Auto news; Ford at the Paris Motor Show
Auto news; Ford at the Paris Motor Show Ford will debut the eagerly anticipated new Ka at the Paris Motor Show, as well as a raft of other exciting metal – including its greenest car ever and a flagship Kuga.
Ford will let the Ka out of the bag at the Paris Motor Show!
The 2008 Mondial De L’Automibile will host the global debut of the stunning new Ka, as well as a raft of other upcoming metal, including the brand’s greenest car yet – and that’s not including the neon-liveried Focus RS!
The Ford stand will certainly be busy between the 4th and 19th of October, but the star will undoubtedly be the new Ka, which the Blue Oval has confirmed will hit showrooms by the beginning of 2009.

The stylish newcomer will have to share some of the Paris limelight though, as once again Ford will wheel out the stunning Focus RS, which is also confirmed for an early 2009 showroom debut. Click here for the full story.
Continuing the performance theme, a new 197bhp Kuga SUV is set to appear too. Propelled by the same engine found in the Focus ST, the range-topping high-performance 4×4 will go on sale at the end of next year. Get all the details here.
At the opposite end of the spectrum, Ford will also show its most frugal production car ever – the Fiesta ECOnetic. Powered by an 89bhp 1.6-litre Duratorq engine, Ford claims some hugely impressive economy and CO2 figures for the eco-machine. Find out what they are here.
And finally, Ford has announced it will be making its ‘Ford Individual’ programme available for the Kuga, new Fiesta and Mondeo ranges – offering customers an extended range of premium interior and exterior styling options. An example of a Ford Individual Mondeo will be on display in Paris.
2009 is certainly going to be an interesting year for Ford fans, and Auto Express will be first with all the details as they emerge.
