!st gear: Funny thing is that Ford was a pioneer on the small SUV craze with the original EcoSport way back in 2003 and now is struggling to reach the competition. The guys were sleeping

And the Agile is nothing more than the old Corsa B. Yep, that thing is really old (and hideous with those giant headlights)

Whoa!

I wanna live in that commercial!

It’s true that some crazy stuff was produced in Brazil. A factory turbo charged Chevette? I didn’t know about this one.
The Uno had it in Europe since 1985, but in the Brazilian version the body kit was insane. The model below is a 1994.

Yep, they were basically the same, except the stiffer suspension and body kit.

The first models aren’t that fast but they were fun. The updated Brazilian version for 2000 is another story, the Zetec Rocam engine was nice and modern for its time, with 65hp on the 1.0 litre and a whopping 95hp on the 1.6 litre XR - the fastest Ka of the world at that time xD

This is the Ford Festiva successor the americans deserved. It’s a great little car that drives like a go-kart, even with the 1.0 litre engine.

Mid sized trucks are trending and Ford still not selling the Ranger in North America.
