02/08/2008 01:35 Officially Official: Ford debuts all-new Ka Autoblog
Sure, you've these pics before (though not in high-res), but Ford
has now officially revealed its all-new Ka that will be the
automaker's big debut at the 2008 Paris Motor Show in October this year. Unfortunately, they neglected to release any
details about the car, instead throwing out a bunch adjectives like
"fresh, funky and fun" and "fashionable, modern" and "youthful and
cheeky". None of those confirm what engines will be offered or what
kind of fuel economy the car achieves. We do know the Ka will share
its underpinnings with the Fiat 500 and be built in the same
factory in Poland, so it would be safe to assume that Ford's
"cheeky" hatch will use similarly high quality materials and be
built tight as a drum, as well. Engine choices are presumed to be
1.4L and 1.6L petrol powerplants... // Autoblog 01/08/2008 23:28 Official: New Ford Ka Wheels24.co.za

NEW baby Ford is on the way 12 years after the original Ford Ka
caused a stir with its funky looks. Due to make its world debut at the Paris Motor Show in October, t he new Ford Ka will join Ford's latest line up of distinctively-styled models. Hot on the heels of the new Fiesta, which has just made its first appearance at the British Motor Show, the latest Ka will be larger than its predecessor.

Not to be confused with Ford Brazil's recent in-house redesign of the 12-year-old original, itself unveiled at Paris in 1996, the
update for Europe "brings new levels of style and enjoyment to
affordable city cars", according to the automaker. The Ford designed and built original car, er, Ka, was little changed over its lifespan - three times the norm for Japanese models and about twice the model life of a European car. The original 1.3-litre overhead valve engine was replaced by more modern 1.3- and 1.6-litre OHC units in 2003 and there were detail trim and equipment changes and numerous 'special editions' over... // just-auto.com 01/08/2008 20:21 Ford Ka: New pictures Motor Trader

I've never known for sure. Is it meant to be Ka or car? Or even
K-A. What I do know is that Ford's Ka is one of the most successful
small cars of the last 20 years. Not only that, it's one of the best cars ever made for first-time drivers and students on a budget. It looks different too - the interior, and in particular the clock, is funky and well made. And best of all, the Ka is fun to drive and cheap to run. So here is a sneak preview of the new Ka that's being launched at the Paris Motor Show in September. The original Ka was launched at Paris, too, back in 1996. Since then 480,000 of them have been sold in the UK, of which 80 per cent have gone to retail buyers. And that statistic says a lot about how practical the little Ka is for people who spend their own dosh on a motor.... // Mirror.co.uk 01/08/2008 19:00 All-new Ford Ka All-new Ford Ka

LONDON — The British Web site CarTribe strikes again, this
time leaking the first official image of the redesigned 2009 Ford
Ka nearly three months ahead of its scheduled October debut at the
2008 Paris Auto Show. The new Ka will share its underpinnings with Fiat's popular 500 , but you'd be hard pressed to tell the two are under-the-skin sibs simply by looking at the two designs side by side. Thanks to their common chassis, the Ka will be assembled alongside the 500 at Fiat's plant in Tychy, Poland, and will go on... // Edmunds.com/Inside Line 30/07/2008 04:45 Ford Ka leaks out ahead of Paris Autoblog
