Ford promises to keep the Ka affordable in Europe
The first generation Ford Ka was built off of the same platform as the larger Fiesta in Europe but the new upcoming model will share a platform with the recently announced Fiat 500. While Fiat has decided to follow the path of the MINI as a premium small car, Ford has decided to try and keep the new Ka less expensive. In Britain the 500 will have a starting price of almost £11,000 while the Ka is targeted at a significantly cheaper £7,500.

"This is the ugliest car we have in Brazil"
If that's true, then what a country! I'd much rather have this little thing than the smaller Kias, Yaris, Aveo, etc. That just shows how small car poor we are in the U.S.
I will admit it is a bit homely, but in a scrappy kind of way--like a Boston Terrier.

Dear Santa,
Please bring the Ka to America.
Love,
