The Ford Aspire is a sub-compact car sold by Ford Motor Company from 1994 to 1997. The Ford Aspire is considered the second generation of the Ford Festiva and was sold in the US and Canadian market. The Ford Aspire was manufactured by the South Korean company, Kia. Ford Aspire was available as a three or five door hatchback and was sold as the Kia Avella in Asia and the Ford Festiva in Japan and the Australasia region.
1997 was the last year for the Ford Aspire in the North American market. The Ford Fiesta has been designed to replace the Ford Aspire. Ford Aspire was discontinued as a result of bad reviews in Craig Cheetham's book "The World's Worst Cars". The other problems faced by Aspire were the tendency to rust, rear brake lamp assemblies prone to water leaks, and chassis problems. The Ford Aspire also provided the option of four wheel drive.
