Launched in 1995, the 1996, 1997 and 1998 Fiesta year models became some of the biggest global selling Ford cars ever. Its new interior and exterior styling was a complete break from previous Fiesta design, however the vehicle dimensions remained almost identical to the previous Fiesta generation due to the use of the same Ford B build platform used across both generations.
