Ford has unveiled the pictures of the new Fiesta under its three-door body, but the five-door is yet to be revealed. MotorAuthority has released a rendering of what the five-door Fiesta would look like.
It is not a secret that the five-door will keep the exterior styling of the three-door; however one question remains answered. How will the designers integrate the two rear doors. The interpretation realized by Schulte Design looks convincing and the Fiesta five-door would be appealing enough to take on the French stars of the segment in Europe, Peugeot 207 and Renault Clio.
Will Ford expand its lineup like French carmakers did. Indeed, the Peugeot 207 comes with several variants: three-door and five-door hatchbacks, folding roof CC, estate SW and a crossover. There was the Fusion model, but it was rather a failure in Europe. The car suffered from a tame design and unconvincing off-road manners. Mazda plans to release other variants in the future and as the 2 and the Fiesta models share the same platform, the Blue Oval brand might make the jump.
