The new Ford Puma ST is the third model to bear the acronym that identifies it as a vehicle developed by Ford Performance, a firm with extensive experience in the world WRC. Both letters are synonymous with sportiness, fun and exciting sensations available to everyone. Getting into a Fiesta ST or Focus ST is doing it in a GTI with an excellent and decisive chassis, something that is also expected from the firm’s first ST SUV. For this they are powered by the same engine, a 1.5-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder and 200 hp of power over 6,000 laps. It will have a thrust of 320 Nm between 2,500 and 3,000 but the best thing, without a doubt, will be to be able to tame it through the six-speed manual transmission. A plus for true driving purists like Jan Solans, Junior World Rally Champion (JWRC) and Model Ambassador.
This young promise, who showed that she has nothing to do with promise, explained the most interesting details of this Puma with the sharpest claws. The little Solans, along with his brother Nil Solans, are the hope of rally fans, orphans of champions for years. Jan rose to fame last year by becoming the junior WRC champion and in August he became a Red Bull driver , a collaboration in which Carlos Sainz had a lot to do with it. The matador has welcomed Solans as a pupil in his promotion to the WRC3, a world championship that fights at the wheel of the Ford Fiesta R5 MkII. Luckily, this blond boy with light eyes and an innocent smile found a hole in his calendar to introduce us to the new Ford Puma ST. He did it accompanied by the cracks of Fordzilla, Ford’s team in eSports , which have Abel Torres, a pilot boy of just 9 years old.
Torres has many years to go before he can get into a car like the Ford Puma ST. Jan Solans, however, promises sensations far removed from what we would expect for a three-cylinder engine. The changes to the chassis have served to create a more rigid car, with a sensational cornering and performance far from the legal in Spain .
