It may not be the most gorgeous thing out there, but its way more attractive than the Prius V, or just about any other small car-based crossover not-a-van thingy.

Pffff why cant the focus hatch have normal tails like these? Nothing special with them i know but theyre much nicer than the focus. Not gonna lie, the only reason i havent considered the st is those ugly a$$ tails! Theyre retarded looking, all over the place, and i hate that extended parts

One of my favorite design features of the Mk3 are those tails. Love 'em, they're striking and very different. To each his own.

I think the 1.6t will be enough for the little Fiesta ST. With 197 hp and about 2700 lbs, the Fiesta ST should only be a few tenths slower than the Focus ST to 60. I'm sure there will be aftermarket and tuning support as well.

Speaking of the 1.6t, I'd love to see it in the NA C-Max as well. And the 7-seater option. Yayaya I know, "it will eat Escape sales"...
