Having already afforded us a peak at the hatchback version of the upcoming 2013 Ford Fiesta through these shots, our spies have now caught up with a prototype of the sedan model while engineers were testing it on the roads around the Nürburgring.
There’s too much cladding on both ends of the Fiesta sedan to be absolutely sure, but it appears that Ford will apply the same Aston Martin grille treatment on the facelifted model as it did on the new Fusion.
Besides the different grille and hood, the freshening is likely to include reworked headlamps, new front and rear bumpers, and a reshaped trunklid along with some minor changes in the interior.
As with the European 2013 Fiesta, the North American model will also get Ford’s newly introduced three-cylinder 1.0-litre Ford EcoBoost gasoline engine with up to 123hp (125PS), which will likely replace the current 1.6-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder with 120hp.
