Ford Vehicle

This concept car gives us the latest clues as to how the new Ford Fiesta will look when it goes on sale next year - but don’t expect a four-door saloon version to go on sale in Europe. Displayed at the Guangzhou motor show in China, this is the second concept car to carry the Verve name this year - the first was shown at the Frankfurt motor show in September. The production version of the saloon will only go on sale in Asia - Europe will get three- and five-door hatchbacks.

The new Fiesta is expected to go on sale in the UK in November next year. Ford sources have confirmed that there will be a third Verve concept car, possibly a small 4×4 based on the Ford Fusion, which will be displayed at the 2008 Detroit motor show in January.
