Believe it or not, the next generation Ford Ka will not only be built by Fiat at the Tychy plant in Poland but it will also be based on the New 500’s underpinnings. However, according to Ford Europe officials, the two mini cars will significantly differ in design –in and out. Car Online decided to share with us a couple of artist's impressions previewing the looks of the new Ka which will debut in mid 2008. Despite the fact that the Ka shown here is a five-door, Car Online notes that Ford’s new mini car will again be a compact three-door hatch. -Continued after the jumpThe Ka, which may be previewed as a concept at the September Frankfurt Show, will be offered once more in an ST guise. The latter, as with the rest of the Ka range, is expected to be equipped with a Fiat 500 derived powertrain –probably the Abarth’s 1.4-liter Turbo producing between 120 to 150Hp. We know it’s way too early for assumptions, but having in mind that the New 500’s platform doesn’t even come close in terms of driving dynamics to the current Ka, we doubt that the new Ka ST will offer the same kind of pleasure behind the steering wheel.
