In standard tune the car has 96hp, but thanks to the ECU wizards at Superchips, it's possible to tune it to 120hp - the same output as the Fiesta 1.6 Zetec S and Titanium versions. Torque goes up too, from 204- to 240Nm.
No performance figures have been released, but it's likely to shave at least two seconds off the standard car's 11.9-second 0-100km/h sprint because Superchips says it 'outguns' the Zetec S. That car has a 9.9-second benchmark figure.
Despite the boost, Superchips says fuel economy remains as was (4.2 litres/100km or 67.2mpg), though could actually improve because the extra torque means you won't need to push it as hard.
Available now, the chip costs £399 in the UK, which at today's exchange rate (2 February, 2011) is about €468. It comes with a 12-month supplementary warranty.
