Local Ford customers and media were in for a one-of-a-kind driving experience this weekend, as Almana Motors Company, the Ford and Lincoln importer-dealer in Qatar engaged participants in a “Ford adventure” event to showcase Ford’s latest technologies and products across the spectrum at the Lusail Circuit.
At the forefront of the event were the all-new 2014 Ford Fusion mid-size sedan and the new Ford Fiesta sub-compact, two of Ford’s vehicles boasting their utmost capabilities and class-leading suite of technologies in various driving experiences.
“In today’s competitive marketplace, it’s more important than ever for us to highlight how Ford cars stack up against the competition,” said Bill Hechmi, general manager of Almana Motors Company. “From Fiesta to F-Series and all points in between, we have quite a story to tell.
Taking center stage at the “Ford adventure” is the all-new 2014 Fusion mid-size sedan which offers an unprecedented portfolio of segment leading driver assistance and convenience technologies based on sensors, cameras and radar that enable the car to see and respond.
F-150
Ford F-Series, America’s best-selling truck for 37 years running, deliver best-in-class horsepower, torque and fuel economy as well as deliver unmatched payload capabilities across the range.
“There’s no doubt that the F-Series trucks were made to lead,” added Hechmi. “With more than 15 million units sold worldwide in the past decade alone, F-Series is America’s best-selling truck for 37 years running, with millions of customers choosing it as the vehicle that they can really rely on, whether for work or leisure.”
The F-150 offers three different powertrains in the Middle East, all coupled to a revised six-speed automatic transmission. Each engine delivers improved fuel economy, outstanding performance and class-leading capability: the 3.7-liter V6 and 5.0-liter V8, each with fuel-saving and performance-enhancing twin independent variable camshaft timing (Ti-VCT) technology, and a version of the 6.2-liter V8 that is the base engine in the Ford F-Series Super Duty.
