The Ford Fiesta facelift which was launched in India last month at a starting price of INR 7.69 lakhs (ex-showroom Delhi) has been introduced in Nepal at INR 20.62 lakhs (NPR 3,299,000), thanks to the nation's 'Himalayan' import duty.

The sedan is made at Ford India's Chennai plant and is distributed in Nepal through Go Ford. The 2014 Fiesta is available in three, all-diesel variants - Ambiente, Trend and Titanium - just like in India. Power comes from the familiar 1.5-litre Duratorq diesel engine that has 91 PS (89.7 bhp) and 204 Nm of torque on tap. The transmission is a 5-speed manual unit.
