I was on Fords website looking at the new 2011 fiesta. They are claiming 30mpg city and 40mpg highway with *pending EPA certification. It appears that this is with the SFE option otherwise it's 30-city and 38-highway.

I was looking at options and they have a 5 speed manual or a 6 speed "powershift" that comes with a "SFE" or "super fuel efficient".

•Underbody shields
•Blockers on lower grille
•15" painted-aluminum wheels
•Speed control
•Spare wheel and wheel cap

Interesting. I wonder what the 'underbody shields' looks like.

The following article claims a .33 Cd for the 2011 fiesta.
