(September 2007) Ford Ka Overview Manufacturer Production 1996–present Body and chassis (1996–2016) (2014–present) The Ford Ka is a small car manufactured by the manufacturer, from 1996 to 2016, as a, and from 2014 onwards as a subcompact car.
It entered its second generation in 2008, being produced by in,. A third generation was introduced in 2014. The first two generations have a three-door body style, with the first generation also having a two-door convertible version that was marketed as the StreetKA, alongside a sporty hatch version, known as the SportKA. There is also the Ford Ka NOW.
The third generation is produced as a five-door hatchback and as a four-door sedan. It was initially only available in, later being introduced in, (where it is marketed as the Ford Figo), and Europe. Ford Ka rear The car was introduced on September 11, 1996 as a small and low-cost addition to the Ford range. It was based on the Mark IV platform, but with a completely different exterior design.
The design borrowed a lot from 's 'Saetta' show car, a roadster designed by Filippo Sapino. The Ka evolved from concept vehicles to production with minor changes.
The large, one piece, moulded bumpers and wheel arches made the vehicle more durable and easier to repair. The vehicle was manufactured on the existing Fiesta production line in Almussafes, Valencia, minimising new model investment costs. The Chief Program Engineer was Kevin O’Neill. The designer of the car was of, who had designed a similar-shaped car when at the in 1992. When the Ka was first introduced to the public it provoked mixed reactions, due to its original and striking design, overseen by and executed. Besides the styling, the Ka, like its sister cars and; was lauded in the motoring press for its handling.
Although I am a soon to be A3 owner with ACC (and bundled pre sense front) I also keep an eye on this forum as some of the technology on the A4 seems to be filtering down to the A3! I am a little puzzled though about the differences between pre sense city and pre sense front - I have read elsewhere that pre sense city was a more advanced version of pre sense front and that city uses radar sensor s and a camera located in the front view mirror, so this would seem to make sense. 2016 audi a4 warning lights manual. However, I have also read that pre sense front extends the functions of pre sense city seeming to indicate that front is better than city?
Under ' supervision, the suspension and steering settings allowed for hard cornering and high levels of grip, providing strong handling characteristics. At launch, the Ka was produced as a single model, with a number of production options including:, height-adjustable driver’s seat, adjustable position rear seat with head restraints, passenger, and power windows. An option was added in January 1997. Aside from corrosionthe main drawback was the 1,300 cc, a design dating to the 1950s used in the. Although not very modern, it provided enough torque to allow relaxed if not spirited driving.
In 2002, the Endura-E was replaced by the overhead cam engine, with claims of improved fuel efficiency and increased refinement, mostly caused by taller gearing on the non-air conditioned models. For the first three years of production, all models had black plastic bumpers to minimise parking damage to paintwork in city environments. These bumpers contained a stabiliser to prevent UV degradation which made them unsuitable for painting because the paint would not adhere properly. However, it became clear that many owners wanted body-coloured bumpers, so they were introduced in 1999 using different bumper mouldings (without the stabiliser).
The Ka has proved highly profitable for Ford despite its low selling price, largely due to low development costs. In 2006, Ford sold 17,000 examples of the Ka model per year in the United Kingdom. As with other Ford models, insufficient anti-corrosion treatment during manufacture and the use of non-galvanised steel results in premature surface and structural corrosion becoming established on cars used in more northern, damp climates.
In, the Ka was introduced in October 1999 and was on the market there until 2002. It was unsuccessful – fewer than 2,000 were sold per year. This was partly due to the lack of an, which is preferred by a large proportion of Australian car buyers. The Ka was also sold in between 1999-2004, and was replaced by the newer Fiesta. United Kingdom The Ka has been the best-selling car in its class in the United Kingdom for a number of years and commands around a fifth of the city car market. The UK model range originally consisted of the base version, the Ka, and the higher specification Ka² which standardised a number of the options listed above.
The Ka² badge was fitted by dealers. Ka³ was introduced later. Power steering was added to the specification of the basic Ka after the first year.
Concurrent with the introduction of body-coloured bumpers Ka² and Ka³ were replaced by Ka Collection and the LuxuryKa (later Ka Luxury). The Luxury version came with a Quickclear heated windscreen, leather seats and interior trim as well as standard air conditioning. A 'Ka Blue' special edition was also launched in the UK with dark blue bumpers and a silvery-blue dashboard insert, rather than the standard models' silver. The Ka Sun Collection with a full-length fabric folding roof was also added to the range during the summer months. Unique to the UK was the Ford Ka Van variant, produced exclusively for and featuring a bespoke flat plywood floor with rubber over-mat and white ply covers instead of rear windows.
A further line-up revision gave Ka the following trim levels in the United Kingdom: Studio, Style, Style Climate and Zetec Climate. In 2005, the Sublime model was introduced.
This featured special leather interior & features not found on other models. This was only produced in very small numbers and is now one of the most sought after Ka's. SportKa was also added to the range (see below).
With the car's impending replacement, in May 2008 a Finale special edition with distinguishing features such as roof decal and black wing mirrors was made available. StreetKa and SportKa. Ford SportKa In 2003, the Ka brand was diversified, with the addition of a new SportKa featuring a sporty body kit, wider track with stiffened suspension and redesigned 16' (40 cm) alloy wheels. Both models came with slightly widened bumpers front and rear with integral fog lamps.
A convertible model called StreetKa also appeared, launched with the help of singer at the. It featured a manually folding or an optional detachable (on the Winter Edition). StreetKa was a Ford inhouse design built by Pininfarina (the 2000 motor show concept was designed by Ghia, Turin) in and all StreetKas have sill plates inscribed 'Pininfarina'. Pininfarina produced 37,076 StreetKas between 2002-2005.
StreetKa came in two equipment levels, basic and luxury. Basic had cloth seats and air conditioning was an option.
Luxury featured leather seats with matching leather door card inserts, heated seats, a Thatcham approved alarm along with Ford's PATS immobiliser, air conditioning and heated door mirrors. Options included upgrading the single CD/radio to an in-dash 6 disc CD/radio and additional rear speakers beneath the roll over bars and a heated windscreen, standard on winter models. All models featured remote control central locking with remote boot release, driver and passenger air bags with passengers air bag deactivation, electric windows and door mirrors, electric headlight aim adjustment, anti-lock brakes, power steering, front fog lights, racing Puma aluminium gear knob, electric hood cover release and a rev counter. The engine used in StreetKa (and SportKa) is called a Duratec but it is of South African origin where it is known as the Zetec Rocam. StreetKa features front and rear and uses unique wider front lower arms (wishbones) giving it exceptional handling. The only exterior panel shared with Ka is the bonnet. The front headlights are also shared with Ka but appear different due to the front bumper covering them partly to change their shape.
The interior shares most parts with Ka except StreetKa has its facia painted blue rather than silver. Its seats are mounted lower than Ka's and it has aluminium effect detailing. In 2005, all Ka models including SportKa and StreetKa received a slightly updated interior, bringing the cabin back up to date, while still retaining the look and feel of the original.
Both StreetKa and SportKa received a new 93 hp (69 kW) 1.6-litre Duratec petrol engine, whereas Ka, Ka Collection, and LuxuryKa retained the 1.3-litre Duratec petrol engine. The SportKa was noted for its surprising advertising campaign, 'The Ka's Evil Twin', denouncing the Ka's traditionally perceived 'cute' design. StreetKa ceased to be officially on sale in late 2006. A pink version was produced to promote the new film, and supplied by Ford to the movie producer. The Thunderbird movie cars were unveiled at the. Only eight Pink StreetKas were produced by Ford for the film, 5 RHD and 3 LHD. All were signed by Sophia Myles (Miss Lady Penelope).
The matching StreetKa dress designed by Bruce Oldfield of Ford was later sold in an auction during London Fashion Week to raise money for. Motorsport A Ford KA rally championship was created in 1998.
It has proved to be one of the most popular junior rally championships (Ford Ka Rally Cup) in the UK and Ireland. In 2007, won the BRC Silverstone Tyre 1400 Championship in a Ford KA. Ka Rally Car Built by the works at, The Rally Ka was designed as an entry-level vehicle to compete in a one-make series as part of the British Mintex rally championship. The Ka Championship in 1997 with just four cars in the debut Granite City Rally event. In 1998, fifteen competitors undertook the Mintex challenge. Ford's Boreham airfield facility provides a complete build service for competitors wishing to rally Ka. Most of the parts supplied are concerned with strengthening the car for rallying.
Uprated engine mounts and suspension bushes are all included, as is a front strut brace. Sump and fuel tank guards, OZ Rally wheels and a Safety Devices bolt-in roll cage are all either fitted by the Boreham works or supplied to individual teams. Performance-enhancing modifications are limited to the addition of a Rally spec, camshaft and 4-into-2-into-1 extractor set attached to a free-flowing exhaust. This combination lifts power to 80 hp (60 kW), and to cope with it competitors are encouraged to fit the optional uprated drive shafts with larger CV joints.
A limited-slip differential and heavier clutch plate are also available. A competition brake package consisting of Mintex pads gripping vented front brake rotors and stronger rear drums is homologated for Rally Ka. Replacing the original shock absorbers is a set of four remote-reservoir Proflex coil-over struts adjustable for compression and rebound damping. These are allied to a lowering kit and adjustable spring platforms to give Ka competitors a wide range of suspension settings including ride height.
Inside the Rally Ka is all business. In true rally fashion gone are all but the essentials: the two central eyeball vents are replaced by a tachometer and auxiliary gauge.
Even the replacement panels in the dashboard which support the fire extinguisher button and extra switches and gauges required in a rally car are listed in the Boreham parts schedule. A deeply dished rally steering wheel, competition seats and harnesses are all supplied from the kit and replacements are not allowed. Ford Ka Individual Grand Prix In 2008, the European Ka was replaced with a model developed and produced for Ford by in conjunction with Fiat's own vehicle. The car is built in Fiat's, Poland, factory alongside the, and.
Despite the wholly different architecture underneath, the new Ka maintains the curved styling features of the original, while bringing the look in line with Ford's Kinetic Design philosophy. It retains the wheel-at-each-corner stance of the previous model.
Ford promises a cabin featuring 'expressive colours'. This mostly refers to the multichoice interior styling that is provided for the second time in Ford, right after the success of the interior design.
In addition, the interior can be equipped with accessories such as a Bluetooth phone connection, wireless voice control, a USB port, a CD Radio, MP3, an AUX connector, steering wheel audio controls and a speaker system consisting of six speakers, a subwoofer and an amplifier. The new Ka comes with a choice of two engines, a 1.2-litre petrol with 69 PS (51 kW) of power and 102 N⋅m (75 lbf⋅ft) of torque and a 1.3-litre TDCi with 75 PS (55 kW; 74 hp) of power and 145 N⋅m (107 lb⋅ft) of torque.
Both engines come with sub-120 g/km CO 2 emissions (119 for the petrol and 112 for the diesel). Both engines are supplied from. The main mechanical differentiator between the new Ka and its Fiat sibling is that the Ford has better shock absorption than the Fiat 500. Fitting a rear enabled 30 percent softer springs and accordingly retuned dampers to improve ride performance over uneven road surfaces. Some of these improvements were subsequently adopted on Fiat 500 Abarth and Fiat 500C models. Changes were also made to the 500's steering geometry for the Ka, although as the new Ka uses an electrically assisted steering system, it lacks the communication of its predecessor's hydraulically assisted steering.
However, the electric steering system does make the steering much lighter and more energy efficient than its predecessor. The new Ka has an overall safety rating of 4 stars, with standard driver and passenger single-stage front airbags, ABS, immobiliser, hazard warning lights and remote central locking (except Studio version in UK). In addition, there are front side airbags and curtain airbags and (Electronic Stability Program) with HBA (Hydraulic Brake Assist) and HLA (Hill Launch Assist) that come at an extra cost.
The new Ka made its debut in the 22nd James Bond film and was unveiled in October 2008's Paris Motor Show. In 2008, there was some speculation that the Ka might be introduced to the North American market. It has since been confirmed however that Ford consider the Ka too small for American tastes and will not be introducing the vehicle to this market. Ka Individual. Ford Ka+ Active Developed by, the Ford Ka Concept was unveiled in Brazil in November 2013. The production version of this new Ford Ka appeared in July 2014, in hatchback and sedan body styles, with the first units arriving in Brazil in September and October 2014 respectively. The next market where it was launched was India, where the sedan made its debut as the new Ford Figo Aspire in August 2015, with the hatchback arriving (as the new ) a month later.
It was launched in Europe (as the Ka+) in June 2016, with deliveries starting later that year. The '+' in the name shows the fact how Ford sees this as a budget car (such as the or the ), rather than an car (like the or the ). The new model is based on Ford's, sharing its underpinnings with the supermini, and embodies Ford's 2.0 design theme. The hatchback is a five-door only model and it is now 266 mm (10.5 in) longer than the previous model, with the wheelbase increased by 190 mm (7.5 in). The four-door sedan has the same wheelbase as the hatchback, but two length variants: a longer one in Brazil (dubbed Ka+), measuring 4,254 mm (167.5 in), and a shorter one exclusively in India (dubbed Aspire), measuring 3,995 mm (157.3 in). In Brazil, it is offered with a choice of two petrol engines: a 1.0-litre three-cylinder, developing 59 kW (80 PS) and 100 N⋅m (74 lb⋅ft), or a 1.5-litre four-cylinder, developing 77 kW (105 PS) and 143 N⋅m (105 lb⋅ft). In India, the range consists of either a 1.2-litre four-cylinder petrol, developing 65 kW (88 PS) and 112 N⋅m (83 lb⋅ft), a 1.5-litre four-cylinder diesel, developing 74 kW (100 PS) and 215 N⋅m (159 lb⋅ft), or a 1.5-litre four-cylinder petrol, developing 82 kW (112 PS) and 136 N⋅m (100 lb⋅ft).
The latter is paired with Ford's six-speed automatic transmission, while for the rest a five-speed manual option is available. In Europe, the Ka+ comes with only one engine, a 1.2-litre unit, that comes with either 51 kW (70 PS), in the Studio or the Zetec trim levels, or 63 kW (85 PS), exclusively in the Zetec model. It features equipment such as the Ford's, MyDock and systems, steering mounted controls, automatic climate control, power-fold mirrors, keyless entry, electronic stability control, cruise control (in Europe), up to six airbags and high-strength steel body structure. In November 2015, a Ka+ model with two standard front airbags and standard with was tested by and was awarded four stars out of five.
It was considered that in the frontal impact the driver's head and chest received adequate protection, the passenger's head and chest received good protection, while the driver's and passenger's knee areas received marginal protection. The bodyshell was rated as stable and was capable of withstanding further loading. In March 2017, released the results of the tests performed on the Ka+ and it scored three out of five stars. For the adult occupants it received a 73% rating, for the child occupant a 61% rating, for the pedestrian occupant a 57% rating and for the safety assist category a 29% rating.
The car's performance in the tests was rated as 'mediocre', being criticized for lacking rear seatbelt pretensioners and load-limiters, poor chest protection in the full-width frontal crash test and the lack of autonomous braking technology. It was subsequently launched in Mexico in September 2015, and in South Africa one month later. In March 2016, it was also introduced in Argentina. The new Ka is produced at Ford's factories in, Brazil (from where it is exported to Argentina) and in, Gujarat, India (from where it is exported to Mexico, South Africa and Europe). Marketing in the Americas Over the years the Latin American Ka has become progressively different from the European Ka.
The first divergence was in 2003, when the rear of the Latin American made Ka was significantly re-designed. This was followed by a more complete divergence from the European Ka in 2007, when the Latin American made Ka was relaunched with a completely new body over the original platform. With the launch of the second generation European Ka, with a new body and the new Fiat platform, the separation of the European and Latin American Kas was complete. They are now completely different cars. From the year 2000 to the present, the Latin American Ka has been powered by either a 94 hp (70 kW; 95 PS) Zetec Rocam 1.6-litre or a 64 hp (48 kW; 65 PS) Zetec Rocam 1.0-litre petrol engine.
Both are four-cylinder units. A total of 63,766 units were sold in Brazil in 2011, making it the 14th most sold car in Brazil that year. South America. 2008 Ford Ka (Brazil) 1997–2001 From the 1997 launch, and until 2001, the Latin American Ka was substantially similar to the European Ka, differing only in levels of equipment and trim. The main differences from the European model were the very short gearing for the (the only transmission available) and the lack of, which had been gradually removed annually since 2000 as a way to, following the practice of other Brazilian car makers at the time.
2001–2007 In 2001, the Latin American Ka received a facelift which left it slightly different, externally, to the European model. The most noticeable difference was at the rear, where the number plate was moved from the bumper to the boot (trunk) lid, and the rear lights were made much taller.
2008–2014 Ford presented the new Brazilian Ka on December 14, 2007. Sales started in Brazil on January 2, 2008. The car was exported to other markets in Latin America. In comparison to the original Ka, this model has a longer rear overhang and a redesigned rear seat to accommodate a fifth passenger. With a length of 3835 mmm, it now fits in the class. In 2011, Ford presented a facelifted version following the Kinect concept car.
In Brazil, only the Sport version offers a 1.6-litre engine. In 2008, with the launch of the new European Ka based on the Fiat platform, the two lines of the Ka finally became completely separate. 2014–present. September 25, 2008.
