JSMarsden Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Whys it called the ST '200' when it only has 197bhp. (I know its 212 on overboost, but thats still not 200). I'm guessing there is another reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mariner Posted February 29, 2016 Author Share Posted February 29, 2016 197 BHP = 199.7 PS So I guess the 200 refers to PS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSMarsden Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 There we go haha. Not liking all the PS stuff why not just stick to BHP - or is that becoming a thing of the past? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obnoxious Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) I'm not sure if this is the case here, but the MK6 Fiesta ST500 meant that only 500 were ever manufactured (if I recall correctly). This could be the case here, that only 200 will ever be manufactured; or it could be referring to the PS as mentioned by other people. Just highlighting a possible naming convention, so I could be wrong. :) Edited March 2, 2016 by Obnoxious Changed ST150 to 500, as cleared up by MarksST. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ford haven't put the power output as part of the name for ages, they get added in general use, though causes confusion with the overboost on the fiesta. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BHP is pretty much an imperial measurement, most of the modern world has gone metric though and likes to use HP (PS, DIN) or Kw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ok thanks for that! I noticed a lot of the VW's had gone to PS so I take it others are starting to follow suit and change across! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONDEO TXS 2.2 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 P.S. is an abbreviation of Pferdestarke, German for metric horsepower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff4155 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 according to Topgear it will have a limited run of 500 units per year. I am guessing this is the last update before the MK8, can't wait to see what the all new Fiesta ST would look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I heard of new model I thought...... 'ahhhh, new wheels to equal great rear bumper/diffuser perhaps?' Errrrrr nope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddyWhack Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 So really, it has 15hp more? A normal 1.6 ST ecoboost makes 197 on overboost, but this one overboosts to 212? Is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has 20 bhp / p.s. more output under normal operation,(up from 180 to 200) & 15 bhp / p.s. more output on time limited overboost as you correctly state Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct, apologies my post was a little mixed up. I meant to refer to the ST500, as MarksST thankfully cleared for me. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
