Adding some spice to the Ford Fiesta range in Malaysia are two special edition variants: the Fiesta Beta and Fiesta XTR, which have been introduced and are on display at Ford’s Mid Valley Megamall roadshow throughout this weekend. Both are based on the 1.6 litre Sport trim and are priced at RM92,888 and RM90,888 respectively.
The Fiesta Beta commemorates the second anniversary of Fiesta sales in Malaysia. It’s only available in Panther Black, and features a bold red racing stripe with white outlines. Adding to the 1.6 litre Sport’s list of equipment are two-tone red and black leather-trimmed seats, 3M-tinted windows, chrome door lining, scuff plates, special carpet mats and an iPod cable. On the outside, the Beta gets a bodykit, sports decals, and daytime-running lights.
The Fiesta XTR inherits the same goodies as the Fiesta Beta, minus the DRLs, chrome door lining and 3M tint. While the Beta has a red and black theme, this one has a blue theme, evident in its twin body stripes, seats and dashboard trim. ‘Sapphire’ decals and carpet mats are also exclusive to the XTR, and Aurora Blue and Cool White are the colours on offer. Both the Beta and XTR have seven airbags.
