Ford's new Ka, a fresh, fun and funky small car, will take centre-stage at the 2008 Paris Motor Show in October. Ford claims that the new Ford Ka will bring new levels of style and enjoyment to affordable city cars.

Ford will unveil the new Ka model at the Paris Motor Show in October so expect to see the car in Ireland for the 2009 market.

Twelve years after the original Ka was launched, its successor captures the same youthful and cheeky spirit. The new model retains all of the qualities which made the Ka so popular, its compact size, great looks, lively dynamics and fun personality, and presents them in a fresh new package.

Ford designers have given the new Ka a fashionable, modern appearance based around the company's 'kinetic design' form language. A number of visual cues provide a connection to the original Ka, but with its distinctive face and chunky proportions the new model has its own unique character.

The interior of the new Ka also has a stylish, dynamic design, combining bold contrasts and expressive colours, reflecting the more adventurous tastes of the typical Ka buyer. The new model is destined to continue the considerable success of the original Ford Ka, which is widely considered to be an automotive design icon. Launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1996, the Ka was immediately praised for its exciting "New Edge" styling and class-leading driving dynamics. Throughout its 12-year life the Ka has remained tremendously popular among small-car buyers, inspiring fierce loyalty from its owners. In total, Ka production has exceeded 1.4 million vehicles.
