Here are some spy pics of a modified European-spec Ford Fiesta spotted prowling the streets of Dearborn, Michigan.

The North American market Fiesta is expected to get a hotter-hatchvariant sometime next year and this could be a prototype for that modelwhich Ford is testing.

The Fiesta mule seen here is a modified European-spec model fittedwith Ford's Titanium trim level and with one of Ford's direct injectionEcoBoost powerplants underneath the hood. Which one exactly, we don'tknow. But given that the last Euro-market Fiesta ST came with a 2.0liter Duratec engine with 150 PS (110.3 kW / 147.9 bhp), we can expectFord to plant a 1.6 liter turbo or, perhaps, even a 2.0 liter turbointo the tiny Fiesta from its EcoBoost range of engines and provide thehatch with a significant upgrade in power.

A 1.6 liter turbocharged EcoBoost engine would be good for about 170PS (125 kW / 168 bhp). A 2.0 liter turbo EcoBoost would supplysomewhere around 230 and 250 PS (169 kW / 227 bhp and 184 kW / 247bhp). The latter is expected in the Ford Fusion coming next year toobut it is highly likely the Fiesta will come only with the 1.6.

But the Fiesta, sporting Ford of Europe's 'kinetic design', will bea looker by its North American segment standards. Telltale signsinclude an intercooler mounted in the front lower bumper grille, reardiffuser, double exhaust pipes and 17-inch anthracite Speedline rims.

It could be that Ford is just grooming a groovy model to show off atthe SEMA show in Las Vegas in November. Or maybe this is close to whatwill hit dealerships as the hottest Ford Fiesta around sometime in 2011.

250 horse in that car would be sweet. Would blow away anything in it's class (Fit, Echo etc) and probably the class above it (MS3, GTI etc).
