The Ford Fiesta ECOnetic was introduced in Australia during 2009. Ford provided evidence to ANCAP that the ECOnetic with diesel engine can be expected to provide comparable protection to the petrol Fiesta tested by Euro NCAP. This 5 star rating applies to all Fiesta ECOnetic variants. Separate ANCAP safety ratings apply to other Fiesta variants.
The petrol 1.25 litre left-hand-drive European model was tested by Euro NCAP. Australasian specifications may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might provide different levels of protection to those described on this page.
Dual front airbags and antilock brakes (ABS) with electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) are standard. Side airbags (with chest and head protection), a driver knee airbag and electronic stability control (ESC) are also standard on the ECOnetic. Intelligent seat belt reminders are fitted to both front seats.
Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than a two point (lap) seat belt.
