And the Ford Fiesta (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/fiesta/) spy shots continue to pour in...

First we saw the hatchback undergoing cold weather testing (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/03/14/ford-fiesta-five-door-facelift-photographed/). Then just last week, our spy shooters caught the sedan testing in Germany (http://www.autoblog.com/2012/05/30/ford-fiesta-sedan-facelift-spotted/). But now we've got the best view yet of the mid-lifecycle Fiesta refresh due in 2014.

Caught in Michigan wearing only light applique camouflage, this Fiesta sedan prototype looks like a shrunken Ford Fusion (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/fusion/). Except that the relative size of the Aston Martin (http://www.autoblog.com/aston+martin/)-esque grille is much larger on the subcompact Ford (http://www.autoblog.com/ford/), combining with the new headlight design to give the 2014 Fiesta the look of a carnivorous, prehistoric fish. Let's just hope the sedan doesn't look as awkwardly narrow and high-rumped as the current car.

Rumors that the Dunkleosteus Fiesta may come to the U.S. with a turbocharged, direct-injected three-cylinder EcoBoost (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/ecoboost/) engine persist. The new 1.0-liter engine is said to pack 125 horsepower and allow the Fiesta to hit 55 mpg, but we'll take that miles per gallon figure with a few grains of salt. Other speculation involves the triple also getting an electric supercharger that could boost power to 175 horsepower.
